New Guy! (Mississippi Cruiser)

[user 9413]

I have purchased, a few months ago, a 1971 Mach 1 Fastback Mustang. It has a 351C 4V engine with C6 automatic. I'm not use to a big body car, but I have fallen in love with this one. I'm working out some small issues ( A/C , vacuum system for vents, Front wheel alignment etc.) but nothing major. I also have a 66 Mustang Coupe. I enjoy the Ford world, but here in Mississippi I am surrounded by Chevy's. Glad to have found this site/forum and hope to get solutions and maybe provide some input! Thanks for the invite!

Hello and a warm welcome from SW Ontario, Canada.
For sure you've come to the right place.
Remember, there are no dumb question.
We do like lots of pictures though.

Welcome from Chicago! Nice looking car! I love the 71-73s in black, a few members here have Black cars with the silver stripes and hood and they look awesome. I decided against painting mine black and going with Wimbledon white like the white '73 that I had in high school. That will be better in the long run, because my wife and I are planning to retire to Florida in a few years, and I'm hoping a white car might stay a little cooler in the Florida sun. Also, didn't want the pressure of making the body work "black paint" perfect, lol.

Welcome brother MS. Yeah we have plenty of Chevys so that is why I have always been a Ford Man.

Congrats. Looks to be in great shape. The 351-C 4v is good motor, plenty of power to spare! All the best in bringing it back to its factory glory.

I love going to Cruise-ins with all my Ford garb on (Hats, tee-shirts, etc.)! That really winds them up!
