So - what's the motor look like? :huh:

Quote:

know its not in the best condition but it is worth fixing up. The car does come with a 351 Cleveland (No pictures for it sorry forgot) that was rebuilt but needs some work again because the weather got the best of it. The car has been sitting for about 2 years and had 2 possums living in it. They are no longer there. Mostly everything is in the car that it needs such as seats and all the interior stuff. It has a ton of misc. items in it that may be for the car or may not be I am not sure.

You can't make this stuff up guys

THIS IS A FULLY RESTORED 2-DR 1971 FORD MUSTANG MACH 1. IT IS A VERY CLEAN CAR. IT IS EQUIPPED WITH NEW BLACK LEATHER INTERIOR, A 351 CLEVELAND, 4 SPEED AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION, 4 BARREL CARB, DUAL EXHAUST AND RADIAL TIRES. THIS CAR RUNS AND DRIVES LIKE NEW. IT WOULD BE A GREAT INVESTMENT FOR ANY CAR ENTHUSIAST.

Note it has the really RARE four speed automatic??????????????

I doubt it's an AOD.

The ROOF is rusted on the Boss... You'd have a fortune in making it a good driver let alone restoring it.

Yikes! I have never seen rear quarters rust behind the side glass.

Possums GONE? probably died of rust poison.

Ditto, pretty bad roof rust sad to see it on a CA car.

Their tetanus shots were out of date.

LOL!!:rofl: I'm sure you are absolutely correct.

The current bid of $2025 may be very close to appropriate, as well as the quoted 999,999 estimated miles. If he gets anything close to $12,500, my retirement will take place much sooner than anticipated....

Doc.... Possums are resourceful. They didnt consider it to be "shelter" any longer

LOL! You're killin' me, Dana! lollerz

wow and i though that the Canadian cars rusted out, what a piece of crap.

its not even a good parts car

Nope No WAY NO HOW AM I fixing doing another major rust repair As I have said numerous times I have had my fill ! Let some other SUCKER fix that baby!

I'm taking my 12,500 & putting that towards a BRAND SPANKING NEW 67-68 Dynacorn body. If you want a boss that bad take your 12,500.00 Find a clean fast back & make a clone. Or better yet Take your 12,500.00 & put that down on a brand new spanking one.

that Boss was rough. Not only roof rusted but its caved in some. def need to replace it.

I would put "1F02R168043" into a blacklist of potential cars to buy if I am ever in the market for a Boss (not that that will ever actually happen). It does bring up the question of re-vinning.

~How much is the VIN paperwork worth for a Boss?

~If a nice 71 fastback and re-badged correctly, and all of the right parts are found to make it a Boss, is it a Boss?

While it certainly would not be cheap to do, if one had a real nice 71, it would be much easier and cost effective to move the vin and find the right parts than it would to restore that former possum hotel.

Is it right? If done right, does it matter? I have no answers.

He probablly ate the possums! But those possums had good taste, they know a great muscle car when they see one.

Someone will probably buy it for the VIN and make their own Boss 351.

Wonder how much it would cost to fill the swimming pool with vinegar to soak that rust off?

Wow. These guys on ebay are smoking crack. $12,500 for what amounts to a rare VIN, and nothing else?

I'm thinking $25 for the 73 taillights and$2.50 for the OSB board in the engine compartment.

What do you want to bet the 351 is a 2V that someone dropped in? Just speculating here.
