'71 Mustang | First Time Owner

Hello all!

I recently (earlier this month) decided to finally follow a childhood/lifelong dream of having an awesome muscle car. Always had a car fascination, but just never the means or experience so was always a little intimidated. Well I felt like no time like the present, and I'm not getting any younger, so might as well!

Currently my really own goal is to get it fully road worthy again. There are some "quirks" and some small leak issues but overall seems sound.

Welcome from So Cal, sweet ride. You’ve happened upon one of the best car forums period.

Thank you all! I am very excited (albeit a bit nervous) for this journey.

You found a great looking 71! Whatever “quirks” look like they must be very minor it’s beautiful. Welcome from southwest Michigan.

Congratulations on your first muscle car and welcome to the club. With so many from which to choose, this was a fine choice. Nice car.

There is a pretty healthy Mustang community in Florida. Check into some of the local Mustang clubs, or just car clubs in your area. You'll find most of the classic muscle car folks to be supportive.

Nice car! Get used to hearing that.

tpj71mach · Jun 30, 2024

Welcome from Chicago! Beautiful vert, I love the color combination! I would like to buy one just like it someday to compliment my Mach. If I can, I am going to try and find one that is already done, no more full restorations for me. As Roger Murtaugh said in Lethal weapon, I'm getting too old for this ____, haha.
