I agreed with everything you said until your Trump rhetoric. How embarrassing. I bought the worst condition house in an HOA. I had a Karen President. Every little plant, permit color etc. had to be scrutinized. Always passed since I have better taste than most of them. When I put it on the...

Don't lower yourself and get an ugly car cover. Do have a discussion about the other cars and every single type of rules others may be breaking no matter how small. I think they should have more give for a classic as it is art, not an eyesore. Ugly is subjective. I would rather see that than a...

Mach I's come in many variations. Many engines, many options. You really need to figure out what you will and won't accept. For me I want how it came from factory (Marti Report), so any deviations have to be factored in a reduction in price. I prefer to have a loaded one as if I buy a bare bones...

I hope you give it more time if possible as it would suck to see it disappear. If someone could store it long enough maybe it will be worth it someday to someone. A welding or restoration school maybe. Too bad it wasn't kept all together as that may have convinced someone to save it.

Soon, I am going to sell two 71-73's amongst other cars as my age and situation says simplify and I am better than anyone after me to know what I'm selling. I prefer to leave this earth with as few things as I can justify.

I appreciate many cars. So many bargains like our cars used to be, but many have been climbing. Have a 84 Turbo Gt and an 89 Mustang McLaren. Now that so many people appreciate our 71-73's, I kind of would rather have a Mustang II. I prefer cars that people complain about

Being that a Mach 1 Could be had with a 302 and standard interior, a convertible like ours doesn't need a Mach 1 name. Ours are better. Our cars were also the closest you could get to a Shelby Convertible after 71 with the exception of an R code. In my opinion all you need are exterior interior...

I wish we had brains to determine also. The reason why we love these is half of us are geniuses and the other half of us are at the other end. None of us know which end we are on. The people who don't like them are in the middle and can't pick a side. Hope that clears it up. I read that these...

74-78 Mach 1's were hatchback only. Could be had with a 6cyl also and no V8's in 74.

73 is and isn't a cobra jet depending on who you ask. It wasn't listed as a cobra jet in the sales brochures but was in the service manuals. One thing for sure is a 73 cobra jet isn't as special as 72 cobra jet. There wasn't a convertible Mach 1 package, but you could order everything, but the...

I have you all beat with my compromise. I get more smiles per gallon same with my 71 Mach but that might change if I ever get it running

Not sure if this is what you are looking for

My milage improves after driving my 73 Lincoln

If you never need pics of an original 73 black hood, cowl etc. let me know. Car is in my profile pic. My 71 argent might original also, but haven't verified yet

I was going to call you on that. I was hoping to repaint mine grabber blue myself, but I'm starting to think of selling as I'm not sure I will ever have the time. I will have to live through you. Nice to see it getting to this point.

I have a 71 Mach I would like to restore tomorrow, but tomorrow is always the next day. Mine is inside though unlike so many that are dying outside which also means they will be scrap metal tomorrow, which is simply wrong, selfish and irrational. To me the cars are more important than my dreams...

Thanks for all the interesting info. I agree, this car maybe had more than one color change and most likely not quality ones. I'm going by the color under the jack instruction label, but like you said removing parts will most likely verify the actual truth.

We all have different interests in car details no matter how mundane and redundant they appear. Many wives are in your boat and deserve our sympathy for putting up with us. Car guys do this all the time. Not sure where you have been. Some of us are interested in unusual cars especially special...

That color would make more sense with avocado interior, but I see a different shade that is less yellow and more blue, and being next to the blue color it should look less blue. Maybe old paint can age from its original shade and sometimes color charts are a little off. It looks closer to a...
