Reached out Yep actually reached back out, they made the mistake on the T-5 rather than the TKX. Bumed it up to $5600 and change. Might slowly start accumulating some parts and get around to it eventually. Chomping at the bit to get my car on the road, so will be rolling with the capable FMX...

Yeah that was the other thing about it. If you look at the top with my request I said the TKX, just in case down the road I was going to throw more power at it, but looks like they quote the T-5.

Awesome thank you! Wasn't sure on that part of it.

My DD is a 2005 mustang, with a 5 speed. The only automatic I have ever owned was a 95 grand cherokee, strictly for the snow I dealt with up in flagstaff. For you all that have used Modern Driveline, does this quote look correct? Looking at the flywheel spec, it doesn't have the 351C on there. I...

Dont forget the winch

If it was rusted out, sure, to each their own. But to hack up what looks to be a super clean body, its just a little painful.

You aren't wrong, besides hacking the quarters it is a nice looking rig. Would probably get 17k all day if it didn't need those cuts repaired. If it is rust free its unfortunate the owner didn't find a fastback that had rusty quarters that were going to be cut off anyways. To your point "ruined"...

Having spent a couple summers playing baseball in canada and seeing the conditions of cars there, 95% chance it full of rust if it was driven at all.

Found this for sale locally. Body looks to be in good shape....minus the cut quarter panels to fit 33" tires. Hate to see it. I don't knock peoples builds but wtf is this. https://offerup.com/item/detail/d2dfb42e-d98c-30fb-b5f3-888277dfbeb9?q=1973+mustang&cid=5.1

Like a mustang and a pinto had an oversized child, and I am kind of into it. But would never buy it.

Didn’t know all that!! This is the evidence I have there was some sort of sound system in there

From what I was told, the original owner didn’t want a hole in the fender from the antennae. There’s speakers up front, and I believe what was a mounting spot for an 8 track? I can take a picture and maybe you guys can tell me.

Heck yeah!! Mine was ordered purposefully without a console and radio. But still have the original plate it came with.

Yeah I actually got a follow up email from Marti stating that based on the serial number they may have the original invoice. Definitely something I will try to scoop up fairly soon.

Not a clue! That's what I was thinking it was, seeing as I have them on the rear. Don't have another guess as to what else it would be.

Very! I will splurge on the Elite at some point, but its not pressing right now. Definitely going to respray it with the 5A, love that color. Theres not much left of it on the body now, almost looks tan.

Agreed! Big fan of that option. Just need to take that assembly out and clean it up a little bit.

Just got my Marti report back, felt like the longest 5 days ever. So far everything checks out! Can’t verify the 2 tone hood since someone stole it at one point and was replaced with a junkyard one, but everything else matches up. Pretty cool! I still have the original Sanderson Ford key tag...

Ok awesome. Yeah I know all the heat cycles and break in for them were already completed. I will be dropping off the car, most likely at Arizona Differential as 1973 Mach 1 suggested. My 73 will be heading to the shop in the next month for a motor/tranny rebuild. So the gear install is likely to...

No I won't be tackling this. These would be well above my paygrade. With a shop that knows what they are doing is a set of used gears an issue? Or is that just if I was doing it myself.
