Hi all. I’m going to drop a new motor & trans into my Mach1. I have an interested buyer for my current engine and trans. The engine for sale is a 351c 2V, 110k mileage, runs great as does the C6 transmission. I don’t know if the engine has been rebuilt or not in the past, but it doesn’t burn...

Very nice! Exact same interior and exterior color as my car was when it was new. My new interior is mostly black now, but I still have the ginger colored seats in storage.

My 73 Mach 1 fell victim to a hit and run driver on the left rear while parked. Fortunately, the damage was minimal. Police report filed, suspect not located. I had planned on attending a car show the following day, but was hesitant due to the damage. After feeling sorry for myself all...

Great! I’ll give that a try! Thanks to all who provided feedback!

My 73 leaked trans fluid from leaky seal around shift linkage (fixed now) and oil from leaking valve cover gasket (fixed now) on to my concrete garage floor. Is there any magic trick or chemical solution for removing the stains? I plan on putting down epoxy at some point, so I know I will need...

I’m in the same boat and want to see what others say! I guess we could replace the center dash insert for one that doesn’t have a gauge package?

The rain is coming to central Virginia this weekend so we had to move the Crozet Car Show to September 30th. This show will have a Mustang Only staging area and a Mustang Only trophy. More info at https://facebook.com/Crozetcarshow

Went to the Valley Mustangs Unlimited Car Show in Staunton, Va.

For our Virginia members, I saw this on Facebook recently and am planning on traveling to Staunton to participate. My 73 Mach 1 is not car show worthy but it runs and drives great and I hope to meet other 7173 owners to learn from their experiences.

Another warm welcome from Virginia. Love your convertible! I like a black roof.

I’ll take some photos when I can for you. Your 73 should have a bolt hole location under your headliner that will accept the lap belt bolt. I do not have actual documentation. Good luck!

I recently removed my original ginger colored seats and installed black seats from Corbeau. They do not look like the original seats but are extremely comfortable. They also sit up a little higher than the original seats so if your more than 6’1”, your head may be touching the headliner.

I used Easy Performance. They accidentally sent me two left turn signal circuits. When I installed, both the right and the left sequenced in the same direction. Agghh! I called and they apologized and offered to send me a new right side unit. Or… Tim walked me thru a modification that would...

Took out the Ginger colored bucket seats for new buckets and recolored back seats with Duplicolor vinyl seat paint (black to match new seats). Added new 3 point seatbelts. The original front buckets are in pretty good condition for their age. How much do you think I could sell them for?

Been busy with my 73 Mach 1 this week. Installed modern 3 point seat belts, new bucket seats, new tail light lenses, new sequential led lights in the tail lights and LEDs on all exterior locations including the headlights. Of course when you dig deeper you find all kinds of things incorrect...

Thanks for sharing the photo! Nice to know what it looks like and how it works!

Well I recently started replacing incandescent light bulbs with LEDs in my 1973 Mach 1, starting first w/a sequential taillight kit from Easy Performance. Then replaced marker lights, interior lights, front turn signals and headlights. I love crawling around this car and learning more about...

Another welcome from Virginia. Nice looking convertible!

Welcome from m Virginia. Similar color to my Mach 1! I look forward to tracking your progress!
