Good luck with your search. I am the original owner of my car VIN 3F05Q261447 and it looks like yours came earlier. Mine arrived in Ontario, Canada in mid July, 1973. I hope you find yours because they are really great cars.

Our 73 Mach 1 was originally purchased by a member of the US Navy, purchased new by him. He sold it to owner #2, who had it for 35 years. We acquired it and did a deep restoration about 2 years ago. After the restoration we swapped the C4 for an AOD tranny. The prior owner replaced the 302 2v engine with a street/strip built (a modest 360HP) 351W (not C), and replaced the original 2.79:1 rear axle gears with a 3.5:1 TractionLok set of gears. It is a wonderful vehicle, And, I did check the VIN, this is not the one you are looking for.
