Its hard to even write this but im at a point in my life where it might be time to let the mustang go and get a newer nicer truck. After getting my 72 mach running after 8 years of work, it just sits. I need a truck, My ol 1992 bronco (daily driver) its just worn out and even though it runs good, its got rust that seems to double in size every time i look at it. Im dead sick of the 11-12 MPG, I bet i spend 3-400 per month on fuel alone. I guess im just thinking why sit on the money when I could use it for something I kind of need. Between Ice fishing, hunting, finishing the basement, my dogs and all my other man hobbies that I have made the bronco work for i just miss having a truck. I think I only put 75 miles on the mach since I got it running. sad
I have put over 13 years of work into the car, saving and buying as I went. I added up my recipts ( I have kept every one for every thing I have ever bought) and have just shy of 44k into her.
Im sure this has been beaten to death one way or another but Im thinking IF i do this id try for 25k. Ill post a few pics, It needs nothing as is but I have two small paint chips to fix, Interior is 95% stock, I redid everything behind the dash, new printed circuit to autometer gauges in the center dash console in the factory locations, basically if you removed the tach that Is temp mounted to the steering wheel it would look 100 bone stock. Everything works even the damn door buzzers
I need to install the rear tail light panel, and Would like to paint the black back on it. (lower half and hood) I already put the mach stripes back on they are just hard to see because of the dark green.
I also need to put tail pipes back on before I sell, mostly just minor details.
Of course the brand new 532, p51 heads, heavy built c6 and the 9" with 4:33s. Im guessing in the ball park of 650 hp. Leaks nothing, Suspention is all new or rebuilt with SSBC disc brakes in the front and stock drums in the rear. Its a wild wild ...... wild ride.
So let me hear some input, Do's donts, offers anything..
