have owned "christine" since 1986 where she was my daily driver. 5 years ago restored her back to MCA concourse driven, (well as close to it as i could, work in progress) and attended my first grand nationals and got a bronze award in concourse driven. though i like the mca look, i think i liked her better with some modifications. color is 4b bright green gold metallic.
will e, sorry to hear about the mach 1, i think if anything were to happen to mine id hate to be on receiving end... i have thought about what would happen if...... but i think id haul her home and rebuild no matter what the damage was. ugh..
and again thanks everyone! there are some nice cars on the forum. =)

Very nice Mustang. I like the paint color - you don't see many of those. Are those chrome trim pieces on the front fender around the headlights? Nice!
christine and eleanor must be sisters? They look similar.

Born an I-6, spent the teenage, 20 and 30 years as a 302, but at 40 will reach full potential as a 351C.
Sounds of legal age to me. Go and build the crap out of here.

This Mustang has been in my family since my dad purchased it for my Mom in 72 form the local Ford dealership in Ft Collins, CO. My dad had it painted once (same as original) and had the dash pad replaced. other then that it is all original. I am in a quandry as to whether I want to keep it original or upgrade the engine and tranny. Just don't know yet. A nice powerful Mustang sounds really tempting.
Welcome from Southern california, nice Ride!

WELCOME aboard!
It appears that you have a very nice Mustang, indeed! It is GREAT to hear of "the history behind" Members' Mustangs. Thanks for sharing!
As Roy (Tnfastbk) stated, we have a couple of (what we think) really "Fun" Forums. I encourage you to take a look at the Weekly Fun Question Forum as this exercise is a great way to obtain VIP status without having to pay the $25.00 subscription fee. There will be an "opportunity" this Saturday. Here is a link that explains the exercise:

Again, a SINCERE welcome and I look forward to interacting with you on the Site.

Love your car I have seen it in person a few times here in the Tidewater area. I came home from the hospital in a Green Gold Glow 73 fastback. Dad bought it new. it was an H code with competition suspension.

thanks, thats cools someone here has seen it in person.. we took it to the USCG show saturday and had a blast at the show. it was cool that there were 3 other 71/73's there.
when we brought my daughter home from hospital she rode in it as well. hopefully your dad still has his 73. if you ever see us out drop by and say hi.

He doesn't have the original fastback anymore. He sold it to my Mom's brother and he sold it to my Dad's brother then he gave it to his father in law and it dissappeared from my grandparents yard. I am trying to track it down but figure it is long gone.

Was that your car at the show last year at the Baseball stadium? If so, I judged it. I was going to enter either my 72 Mach1 or the sprint but I know how picky most of the judges are about undercarriages so I entered my 2004 Mach1 in the Daily Driver class and did not place because of water spots and dirty hinges.:huh:
