Any mods bother me more and I aways expect to see more mods if I see something intentionally incorrect. If there is a mod, it should be something that can be bolted and removed without having to paint a body part. I don't like added factory style stripes and black hoods etc. If it doesn't match...

A car like that should match the Marti report especially since it already has the metal repair story and doesn't need more stories. Argent in my opinion just doesn't look right on bright red.

At the very least get it to a point that if you decide to sell it, it won't be a question of being saved or not.

For those of you who appreciated modified cars here is an article. https://www.yahoo.com/autos/1973-mustang-build-everything-want-150009677.html

I say call it what you want as it is cobra jet like. A 73 cobra jet is not a 72 cobra jet. A 73 cobra jet is more called that in service manuals, with some mustang mechanics and less in dealer info. I'm calling mine cobra jets, but I'm not calling them a 72 cobra jet. An educated person will...

Great job. I hope to learn to do some rust repair someday as an amateur and posts liked this are inspiring. What is your reason for recommending to saving the originals if you replace? I imagine the OP's parts aren't as bad as yours and maybe the body guys can fabricate metal for the repairs...

I responded yesterday and don't see it here. Everyone has their own idea what is best. I would pay more to repair over replacing and not have to store original parts which is a cost of space at the least and a reminder to your wife of spending money on this car. Maybe you can find bad parts that...

I am surprised they need changing. When I sold your car to you, I thought they were pretty nice especially for an east coast car. If I were doing it, I would do my best to save the parts as some of us prefer an original panel car over a Frankenstein car even if some of those panels have been...

For those who haven't seen this clip of 71 Shelby's.

Beware. On Ebay now. Seller may have learned to list it where you can't discuss it. It is stupid to list a fraudulent car where kevken1959 and others might be able to talk about it...

This should be a lesson to all. Absolutely don't get married unless their 71-73 collection is better than yours

He Probably watched Jack Nicholson and Shirey MacLaine in Term of Endearment

Looks like the same one that is on Ebay...

That is one of the best 72's I've seen. My 73 Mach 1 from Beverly Hills Ford was optioned similarly except an ASC power sunroof was also added, not on Marti as they never were. ASC did the sunroofs for Lincoln and most other cars of the era. I have four vehicles touched by ASC. Beverly Hills...

Also, the original formula single stage isn't legal in California, but you can find people to do it. I liken a clearcoat to a color change and a major mod deviating from original. Mods on rare cars should only be ones you can bolt on and off or maybe period correct like my power sunroof. I...

The thing that I love about 2B is that it looks orange in certain lighting especially since calypso coral could only be ordered as a special paint option. I find it a shame that there isn't more factory orange 71-71's as they wear it so well. I've owned a 71 Boss that was one of 4 CC ones...

Facebook and Mustangs, not other Facebook topics. But since you brought it up. Never been on Facebook and am for free speech and have been wrongfully banned more than once elsewhere. When people die etc. because of mis info and conspiracies is it really free to everyone? Too many people believe...

Always google info before you waste too much time arguing. Knowledge is power and when you are wrong, you don't want to continue down that path endlessly. If you are right, you can attach the info. Nothing wrong with being wrong, but how you handle it tells a lot.

How about listing the Cleveland and if you get a buyer then pull it. Better to hear it run if possible. Can list whole car at the same time. Have different price ranges with different parts included. Can't see pulling the engine until you have a buyer wanting that. I would just list it all at...

Welcome. Nice car. Love green cars. I'm normally against mods but having owned two big block 68-69 convertibles that I never really enjoyed driving more than a 6cyl car, I get it. Too front heavy. Wrenching can always put it back. Never had the issue in Tbirds and Lincolns. Cars should be driven...
