Trim back the orange and apply a thin layer of blue silicone. I touch mine up with some ford blue paint. Not sure if that will last. Your engine is looking good. I'm sure your getting excited:).
Here's a bunch of pics of the 71 mach1 for sale. It looks good but not all original and the price. I think it has been repainted. Single stage paint. The chrome around the back glass doesn't fit quite right. It looked like there might be bondo around the back of quarter windows. Argent paint on...
Stopped by and looked at this Mach 1.Texas car, Argent and black, Auto, Non ram-air, No fold down seat. Looks good, minor imperfections. I will try to get pictures Thursday. Not sure about the miles yet. Thought somebody might be interested.
Here's my 73 sportsroof. It says special paint. Doesn't say the color on the marti report but it is black. I like it with the chrome trim. It needs redone.

I didn't do worth a crap on the first one:(.41 Lincoln 7 passenger limo.Waiting on #2. It doesn't matter if you got anywhere close on the bid. Each time you bid you are entered again to win the GT.
It would not be easy to win this GT 500 but somebody is going to win. You probably have to watch 30 hours of B-J. Once an hour you bid on a fantasy car and add up points to win. Usually each day high score wins an Ipad or something. Last year I actually bid the exact price but was not the first...
I just wanted to mention that I've had 2 of these original HB's outer sleeve slip which moves the timing marks to a different location. It can really mess you up. I went with a new solid (I think)HB from summit. For checking the HB for slippage it looks like maybe the crank slot is in the...
I used the $12 ones from autozone and they are at least a 1/2 inch shorter than the clamshell 73's. It makes the fan rub on the bottom of the shroud. I think a 1/2 inch shim plate where it bolts to the motor might work.Longer bolts would be needed.
