- 1972 mustang sprint 302 auto notch back
Hey everyone! My mom bought this Sprint brand New back in 1972. It is currently being restored with the interior being 95% redone, the engine and transmission out for a rebuild (after a small engine fire), then we just have the paint left.
Original specs:
Coupe
302/auto
no AC
blue vinyl top
4 wheel drum brakes
-blue hub caps
Upgrades
-The interior is mostly original with an added middle console and CD changer working off of a stock style radio
-My dad wanted to upgrade the wheels and tires, so now it has a 15" set of Crager S/S wheels and 275 tires in the rear
-Transmission is built back stock
-Engine rebuild has a thumper cam, ported and shaved heads, slightly more compression, an aluminum intake, and a 4 barrel carb. also bigger wires, and a few other dress up things.
-Exhaust is a true dual exhaust setup with flowmaster mufflers.
-The repaint will not include a Vinyl roof and we may add the small decals on the rear quarters that were never installed on this car.
Right now, I am having to redo some wiring after the fire and install the fresh engine/transmission. Getting excited about finally seeing it run well, since they have been restoring it for many years.
I will post some pictures soon!
