Wow - looks a lot like my car.  Priced about right as well, for an F-Code (302) car.

The link to the ad is not correct. It does look like your car.

Sorry - fixed it. :whistling:

Sorry bur I think Eric's car is MUCH nicer. Anyone else notice what's missing under the hood? No fan shroud, no windshield washer, no horns, no horn button for that matter.

Eric's car is nicer for sure. Needs little work to be called finished.  It would be a fun car to own.

Hey, thanks guys! ::thumb::

I agree this one needs a bit more refinement to be as nice as the seller says it is.  For instance, the 'perfect matte graphic' isn't quite true.  It's close - very close in fact, but borders in too close to the riser areas on the sides.  Not to mention that it doesn't really belong there on this non-Ram Air-equipped car in the first place.

The tach on the dash is a hack - a previous owner likely did that, and rather than replace the dash pad and go with a column-mounted tach or Rocketman Tach Conversion, they just left it and call it 'vintage custom,' or 'era-correct' in this case.  Boo...

Deluxe interior with standard carpet (no Mach 1 vinyl 'mat' inserts).

I also have one of those Grant GT Challenger steering wheels in my Jeep - and also installed one in my '82 Mustang.  Yes - missing horn button is one of those pesky details overlooked.

And what's up with the bumper guards on the rear bumper, anyway?  Is that correct, or did someone just toss on a bumper that had the guards along the way at some point?

Still a good-lookin' car, though.

Some did come with the bumper guards. Mine has them. I'm not a big fan.

Ah - cool.  Thanks for that.  ::thumb::

Just seemed out of place on the earlier models, to me.

Looks out of place on all of them. But if I remove them I would have to weld up the holes smooth it out and then re-chrome the bumper. Another project for another time.

Eric, your right on the bumper guards. Owner has either found a bumper with em'  already on it or installed those. The bumper guard option was not available on the Mach 1 due to possible interference with the chrome exhaust tips on the 4bl models. So to reduce complexity on the assembly line and to not to have an issue with Mach 1's with and without exhaust tips and two different rear valance valence panels, they "Nipped" in the bud and made them N/A on the 05 body style.

As you can see from the sellers photos things look a little "Busy" in that area with the guards and exhaust tips in the same area. While a nice car and I do like the Pewter color, he has along way to go before it will ever be the caliber car yours is!
