Hi All, well after selling my beloved 72 vert to fund the purchase of a 69 Mach 1, I came into funds again and tried to find another 71-73 in the UK, but prices have gone crazy over here.  They now seem to start from $32,000 for a basic 302 vert to $48,000 for 351C.  And that's with our weak...

Hi Guys, Would be grateful for your opinion on this 72 Q Code please?  It's cheap but needs some work. Should I buy it? https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Ford-Mustang-Mach-1/223083703835?ssPageName=STRK%3AMEBIDX%3AIT&_trksid=p2060353.m1438.l2649

Hi All, Am thinking of getting back into 71-73 ownership, as I miss my old 72 bad. This 71 429 SCJ is for sale and the Sellers is interested in a p/x with my Lotus. Would be grateful to know what you think of it? https://m.carandclassic.co.uk/car/C673038 Thanks, Mark

Found this today.  Never heard of the film but not a bad car chase:

Hi All, So I replaced my 72 vert for a 69 Mach 1 and thought it would be ok.  Well, it's not.  Don't get me wrong, the 69 is a great car and fast (created a website for it: http://www.fordmustangmach1.com), but I still love the look of those 71-73's. So the plan is to have 2 Mustangs. I've...

Hi Chaps, So I've bought another Mustang, a 1969 Mach 1 351W 4 barrel.  California survivor car, 1 owner and in time warp condition.  Car has all original parts, original paint, low miles, all matching numbers and no rust.  Only mods are an Edelbrock carb and airfilter. Below are pics showing...

Hi All, Was interested to reading about the 351 HO Mustangs and that there was a performance option in 1972 but Ford didn't shout about it. Just wondering if anyone knows what the HO stands for?

Just watched this film and reminded me of the good old days. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YZ8NyL5Niko Those cars may have driven like a piece of $hit but they sure looked good!

Spotted this Boss for sale in Norway. Looks tidy and the seller is looking for $56,000. What do you think? http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/1971-R-code-Boss-351-/232157784220?hash=item360daea89c:g:8OYAAOSwiDFYPCzg...

Hi All, Met up with Don in London today. Had a quick bite to eat and talked cars. Great to meet you Don and thanks for taking the time to come to Chelsea.

Hi Guys, thought I's sharing a few pics from the Brooklands event:

Just wondering what you're getting to the gallon on your 71-73? I'm running a low spec 302 2V with a standard Autolite 2 barrel carb and am getting 24mpg, which seems ok for these things. I got the timing sorted recently too and it's pulling nicely now. What are you getting?

My Mustang was asked to be on the Ford stand at the Henley on Thames Festival on Sunday, amongst the RHD Mustangs: I then went on to another local show with some nice metal:

So little old England voted on some political stuff last week and now our exchange rate to the dollar has gone to $hit! How are we going to buy those Mustang parts?! The parts, shipping and import duty have sky rocketed. And this is not going away any time soon. CJ's is going to feel the...

The UK American Car Magazine did a feature on a 72 Mach 1 a few months back and asked if there was any love for the "aircraft carrier" Mustang. Thought I'd pitch in.

Some nice pics and info. 6 are up for auction at Mecum: http://blog.hemmings.com/index.php/2016/04/05/an-unusual-obsession-six-pack-of-71-mustangs-from-the-kirt-fryer-collection-heads-to-auction/

Hi Guys, thought I'd share some of my pics from Race Retro, one of the first shows and races of the year. The highlight was a nice Mach 1 race car (which also raced last year at Speedfest). This Mustang was for sale for $100,000

Hi All, Just wondering if anyone is running 10 X 15s on the rear and 8 X 15's on the front? Thinking of doing it to my car. Thanks for any comments you may have.

Just wondered why our cars seem to handle better than the 1964-1970 Mustangs. The 69 and 70 Mach 1's I've driven seemed to handle like a wheelbarrows around corners, yet mine handles much flatter. Did they make improvements to the geometry / steering?

Hi All, I fitted a new brake cylinder to my car 9 months ago. I've done about 800 miles in it since and I've noticed rust streaks down the sides of it, so I guess the seal in it is leaking. Does anyone know why this is happening please? Any suggestions much appreciated.
