Proud new owner of a 1973 Q Code Convertible with a 4 spd manual. Purchased from the 2nd owner out of San Antonio TX, the speedo shows 81K miles and it was reportedly always garage kept. Lots of work done to bring it up to date, new front seats, recovered rear seat, wheels and tires, brakes, dual exhaust, clutch, and even an engine rebuild in '98 at 78K miles with all the paperwork. The PO claimed he had driven it about once a month since the rebuild. No rust, some minor body damage to the rear end, but rock solid all around. Needs a new top and paint, I plan to take it back to the original Medium Copper (5M). I've been looking at the 71-73 'verts for a while now but nothing serious until this showed up. It ticked so many boxes I drove 2000 miles in 2.5 days to check it out and bring it home.
This makes my fourth Mustang and my second 73, the first was a Grande Coupe with 351C 2V. Also owned a 66 Coupe 289 2V 3 spd and a 2016 GT 5.0
Glad to be here, I'm sure I'll have lots of questions as I go along.
