    Question: Do you wax the matte black hood? If not, how do you care for the matte finish in the paint job?

    M Code, H Code visual difference

    Don, thanks for the quick reply. I've recently learned about decoding Vin numbers, but what I want to understand now is - How can I varify that the engine in the vehicle is what the Vin number says it should be or what the seller is claiming it is?

    1971 Ford Mustang Boss 351 (Roswell, GA)

    In the photo you can see a second 71-73 Mustang behind the Boss 351. That guy must be a huge fan to have two of them. I wonder if there's a second ad somewhere else for the other one?

So I'm trying to understand the differences...

    $49,000 Mach 1?

    This dealership in Arizona is asking nearly $50,000 dollars for an M-code Mach 1. How can they possibly get that much for it? And what could be so special about the car to ask that much? http://www.tempearizonacars.com/1971_Ford_Mustang_228412354.veh

    Ford Codes, what do they mean?

    Hi, I'm new here. I'm in the market to buy my first classic car and I've decided I want a `71 Mach 1. While looking at 71-73 Mustangs on the internet I've noticed people using jargon like R-code, M-code, Q-code. What do these mean? Is there a reference to look up these various codes?
