- Serialized on my birthday, this Medium Bright Yellow Mach I is a long time companion that has seen its fair share of neglect. We plan to bring it back but before we start, I want to tell you where it ALL started.

Ordered my 72 Q code mach 1 fifty two years ago from a dealer here in Alberta. 52 years later, Still have it. 63000 miles, still sporting the 8 track. Get it on the road and Enjoy your car Jeff , Time flies.
Wow!
Outstanding.
I still want a 428CJ 😊
So much of your story resonates with me. When I was a teenager in the 80’s, I looked through the autotraders for a cheap cool car. When I found the 71-73 fastback mustangs, I was forever hooked on first gen mustangs. I started looking for 73’s since that was my birth year ( although now I prefer the 71-72 grill). When I saw the front of a 69, I was again forever changed. I prefer the side profile of the 71-73 fastbacks but the front of the 69’s are what really captured my heart. In 1994, I bought my first mustang… a 69 Mach 1. At that time I started reading Mustang Monthy and Mustangs and Fast Fords. The 69 I bought was in pieces because that was all I could afford. I learned how to work on cars with that one. Although I sold that car… I eventually bought another 69 Mach 1 that I still have. No matter what shape it is in, I will not sell it. Keep reminding yourself of why you feel in love with these cars in the first place… then everything else is just details…
Glad to see this car back on the channel. Similar story, sorta, I was 16 in 1973. My buddy down the road from me got a brand new blue '73 Mach 1 with the silver stripes and factory slot wheels. 351C 4V with factory dual exhausts. And I loved, that car. I wanted one sooo bad, but my Dad would not buy me one, and I didn't have the money to get one. So I ended up with a '65 Mustang GT 289 4V. Now, I did love my car, but I really loved that Mach 1. My friend and I spent a lot of time in his car, I got to drive it quite a bit, and it was just what I wanted. Anyway, the following year, my friend was speeding, rounded a corner, swerved to miss a car and totaled the Mustang. He ended up bruised up pretty bad, but I was not with him, which probably saved my life. Fast forward, I retired a few years ago, and thought it would be cool to find an old Mustang and take it to cruise ins. I was looking something in the '65 to '68 range. My wife said, "get a Mach 1." Somehow, I found our '73 in Benson, NC, that had been restored and was yellow and black with the full gauge package. We went and looked at it, spent more money than I wanted to and brought it home. It is a good driver, looks and shows well, and I have enjoyed tinkering on it. I was able to take my buddy, for a ride in the car and we shared many memories. He passed away a few months later. I am so grateful I got to share another ride with him in a '73 Mach 1. Well still enjoy it today.
Happy belated birthday Jeff, I have been following Autorestomod since it’s inception. I have had my 69 Mustang “GT” for twenty years and it is slowly coming back together. I won’t go into details why I love the car here, (to long a story) but like you I am building her the way I want her. Years a go I met an Concours restorer in England who used to restore Triumph TRs to 100 point winners for his clients. His best advise was as soon as the paint dry’s all metal want to oxidize and the best way to have the most fun with a old car is to restore it to a well maintained five year old car. It is not perfect but you can have fun with it and who cares if the paint gets a scratch.
Thank you for sharing your story. I believe it resonates with us all, especially the 71-73 crowd. These cars have a special place in all of our hearts. My 73 will be worked on from now on. Thanks to you.
Glad you enjoyed it, more to come!
NICE! having ridden in that car, I approve of this message. Build it so you can love it even more.
This is why I love cars, hearing the stories behind them. I have a 72 Mach 1 my dad passed down, it has been in the family since 73 and I still remember climbing in the trunk as a kid helping him change the shocks on it.
Lol! Yeah, shocks are zero fun on a 72!
I remember the video you posted about this car way back when. I have a special relationship with the 71-73 Mach 1. My best friend in high school had a white one with the 351-C and ram air. We drove the hell out of that thing. Driver's seat was broken so we jammed a 1x4 between the back and the base to sit up straight. Lots of good memories in that car.
On a side note, it's hard to think it's been 8 years since your dad passed. I always enjoyed the episode when the "O Team" would pay you a visit. Thanks for sticking around and doing what you do. FYI thanks to you guys I still carry wasp spray, water, and a way to communicate with my buddy in salvage yards.
These videos are the hardest because they make me think back and remember the times with my dad and even my mom during those days. My Uncle Bill is still alive he's running around doing things at 89. Gives me a lot of hope for my future, LOL
I have my dad’s 73 q code four speed convertible he ordered new. I remember reading about your car in mustang monthly back in the 90s. I also still have my dad’s 68.5 fastback. I’ll hang onto them forever. Looking forward to more videos of your Mach. It’s so nicely optioned
Are you located in WNY by chance?
@@MrFuroius1972I used to be but not anymore. Did you know my father
Got a 72 351 Q-code Mach 1 with tilt, power windows, AC, disc brakes, louvers, and the saddest look on it's face you can imagine. Glad to know I'm not the only one afflicted with the Mach everyone seems to hate. Thanks for sharing.
Who cares what they think. You like it, all that matters.
I followed your journey with this car back in the 1990s when you were in Lakeland. I even remember when you were getting your garage built. I lived in NY at the time and was restoring a 1969 Mach 1 then that I still own. I now live in Orlando and brought my car with me. It has also sat because life got in the way. Now that I am older (we are about the same age) I will be going back through it just like you to get it on the road. You were a hero to me back in those Mustang Monthly days, hope to meet you in person someday. Have you made the trip to Blue Oval Car Barn in Mineral Wells, TX? That would be heaven for a 71-73 Mustang fan like you. Best of luck in your re-restoration of this car.
A friend of mine helped do the restoration on a number of those cars at Mineral Wells. I would love to go there and take a look at what they have. Hopefully you and I'll be able to touch base at some show somewhere that would be awesome
thank you for the story, it sucks that you had to go through hell to get here, I am glad to see it and you still owning it means a lot. A solid driver quality 4 speed 351 Cleveland with a lumpy cam sounds like a really good way to spend a weekend getting a burger, ice cream and a drive through the hills! looking forward to the rest of the story... My 93 notch back I bought in 95 has spent too much time sitting, and has been ressurected several times and is going on drag week next month! then after that is some road course work at Grattan Raceway in Michigan.
keep after it! Jeff.
Cool, I have a similar story and timeline. I recall as a 5yr old having a 70 Boss 302 Gr Or. as my fav and deciding I would one day have one. At 16 I got a 80 2.3T and it blew up a few months later. I lerned how to put in a 302 and then went onto hop it up. I was not totally satisfied with it, so was looing in our Buy and Sell Magazine and found also in 94 and also by typo in add a 69 Mach1. It said it was a 351W 4V but was actually missing the motor. I bought it and it needed frame up but was a So Cal car and had no rust, Yellow also and fully loaded. It has been a part of the family ever since and at so many events, good luck Jeff with resto and hope to see you at a Mustang week some day!
Jeff what a great video I have my grandfather 1971 cadillac deville that I got passed down in 2009 I have not much time to drive it or maintain it but this summer I'm going to get it out of storage and get it back on the road
Guy from Belgium, EU. I remember the Lazarus project in MM ! Been into the mustang hobby from 1993.
Over the past 30 yrs , I have 2x 67 fastbacks, 1x 67 convertible and 1x 68 coupe. 1 fastback is finished. The other one and the convertible are running projects and the 68 is a parts car.. Thanks to you Jeff. !
Happy B-day !
Glad you're still around for the ride
Thanks for sharing your story Jeff.
My Mustang was serialized on my Dads birthday. Sadly he never got to see it. So I understand totally how you feel about Lazarus.
Fantastic idea! I'm in a similar position... I've owned a 67 Fastback since 1995, and always wanted it to have a manual tranny. My buddy has been on my case, and is gathering clutch parts and such. Some day, it will have a 5-speed, so it can be the car that I've always wanted to drive across the continental divide to visit our son. Looking forward to watching the new videos.
Totally understand the feeling. I am the same way except it was with 66/67 Fairlanes. That's what dad and I were doing back in the late 80s into the 90s. My dad tried giving me 1963 Fairlane Sports Coupe. I turned my nose up at it (regretfully now!) but rather wanted a 66/67 Fairlane. I later set my heart on a 1967 Ranchero XL, Dark Moss Green Met. 289 3sp car. I was 12 years old when we picked up the shell from the local junkyard in 1991. Completely restored it, amateur driver grade, using alot from the stash we had accumulated over the years of buying and selling the 66/67s. It was beautiful when it was done but there was battles fought over what was to be done to it. It never was 100% the way I wanted it, as he wasn't allowing some of my ideas...and that forever haunted me. But it was my 1st car and my 1st restoration, and done with my dad. I drove it for a few years as a daily, up until I went into the USAF. It had been in a couple really bad fender benders, but I wasn't gonna give up on it. Kept it, and fixed it both times. He held onto it for me while I was gone, stored inside and then outside under a lean-to. When i decided to get out and moved back home it went into a storage unit for a few years, then I finally brought it home with me and it's been in the corner of my shop ever since. Its survived marriage, divorce, raising 2 kids, and many other moments in time.... I just have no desire to sell it. Since my dad passed in 2020, I've been thinking that i need to just suck it up and tear it apart and build it the way i wanted to in the 1st place. Put and end to the weird animosity that it carried. Should have done it when he was alive, just to drive down a point! LOL but at that time money wasn't plentiful and I didn't wanna start the arguments again. One day I'll do a video on it. If you look in the background in some of my in-shop shots you can barely make it out buried with crap all over it. If anything, it's still cool to have your 1st car still! 😊
Glad you are back on the car Jeff! You and I are only a year apart. Some similar life situations, so this story hit home. I remember your Mach 1 back in the day and looked forward to every issue of Mustang Monthly when you were the editor. You made that magazine better along with Mark.
Your Mach 1 should have all of the followers excited. I know I am.
Take care, you are doing good work!
Morgan
Thanks heaps, Morgan.
I have a 71 Cougar...can't wait for you to start this!
I remember seeing that car in the magazine articles. I love that car too! Glad to see you taking an interest in it again and doing it your way. Looking forward to the videos.
Right on!
Jeff you have always been my favorite editor on Mustang Monthly. I loved your articles. I remember you talking about the ginger interior. God bless
You rock!
Jeff, thanks for sharing. I understand the struggles at school with dislexia. I've had a teacher so frustrated with me that she broke a yardstick on my back. Home was worse when I came home with D's and F's on my report card. I had to go to summer school every year and still struggled. Jr. High and high school was better because VoAg, wood shop, metal shop, and auto shop was someplace I could succeed. Believe it or not I got a lot of help working through it in the military.
I got a 70 Mustang sports roof for $800 in 1978. It was a basket case. My Dad and I fixed it mechanically and gave it an Imron paint job. I sold the car in the late 80's to pay the rent and other bills. I regret selling it and Mustangs are expensive now. I got a 72 Ranchero Q code instead. When I get time and space in the garage I'm going to rebuild the C6 transmission. Thank you for your video I appreciate you.
Thanks for telling me a little bit of your story. I really love the big Rancheros in Gran Torino those are great cars
Jeff, thank you for sharing the story behind the car, I always enjoy that. We share the same age and, I too was taken by a Mach-1. Our neighbor down the street ( about 72 or 73) had purchased one. I recall only seeing the rear of the car only, Black & Silver with MACH-1 emboldened in the back. I recall the car having huge meat (wide) rear tires and occasionally I’d hear or see it when peddling my bike down the road, good memories.
Truly looking forward to your work on this car and building it to be driven and, more importantly, as you want it to be.
Glad you enjoyed the video.
@@AutoRestoModI hope to see this car someday. Maybe at one of the events. I had a 73 Q code. Mach 1 interior, fold down rear seat. Staggered shocks. A good riding car. I had it painted red of course. A friend got it later, painted it grabber blue, won some shows. Great memories 🙂
Can't wait to see this car come back to life. Thanks for another awesome video.
I still have the magazine articles from back in the day. It's good to know that Lazarus wili rise again!
Hi Jeff and all my fellow car guys. My first car ,a 68 Chevelle SS .my father and myself did a frame of Restoration on . Best time spent with dad . I still have the car some 30 years later. After Dad passed away the car has just sat . It kills me to look at it. I am sure many of you know that feeling.
That is hard. I now have dads key ring with his dog tag on it. I'll jingle then and think of him. I'd recommend driving the Chevelle. Sure, tears will be shed, but man, that is the catharsis. Shaking the keys, driving, remembering.
Jeff, I remember you and the car from Mustang Monthly and still have those magazines. I too have a Mach 1 and your Lazarus Project helped me in so many ways to understand what I should be doing with my mustang. Man I can't wait to see more of yours being worked on. BTW, my Mach is a baby blue '73 end of the era production vehicle.
Love the story on this car. Looking forward to the future videos on this car
I'm glad you are getting back on the 72. I think turning it back into a driver is awesome.
I think so too!
First time I saw your mustang .I loved it .Great story.I used to have a Mustang Grande.I wish I never sold it. Now I have my 75 Torino Sport 68 Lincoln Continental suicide door and 78 F-150 F-150 I have owned since 1987 I used it for a plow truck for 15 years now its my next project to get back on the road.
Hey! Seeing that car for the first time was like a baby hatchiling imprinting with its mama. Plus, it was yellow!!! You never stood a chnace.
Enjoy your build...good story
Jeff, I have learned endless tips and tricks from you videos, and that is how I was able to finish my dream car....my 1967 Fastback in Europe. Thank you very much for sharing your knowledge and also this story to us. Keep up the good work! :-)
Thanks, and thanks for watching.
I can’t wait to see what you do with it Jeff !!
Thanks for the story Jeff. I'm excited to see the 72 Mach 1 come back to life. I have a 71 Mach 1 low option car Bright Silver Blue in canada and my car didn't come with ram air but I bought everything for it. I wonder if my aftermarket Weiand X-CELerator Intake Manifold will cause any issues trying to install the ram air. Looking forward to the videos. I have learned alot from all your videos I have watched.
Still have my second 71 mach 1, after my first one was stolen. After seeing them do stunts at a ford show I have always liked that body style. Looking foreword to upgrades on yours.
Cool story time, Jeff. I bought my first car, a '68 GT/CS, in August of 1973. I still have it.
Very cool!
Looking forward this Jeff! In true "AutoRestoMod" style!! Your car, Your way!!!
That's the plan
My 68 Impala is in a similar state. It needs body work that I can’t do myself. Body work, especially classic body work is SO expensive! I really want to get her back on the road! I feel your pain. ❤
Yep any more all of its expensive
Wow! Look how many people wrote Long comments! 👍❤️👏
Awesome story thank you for sharing. It is indeed a very special Mustang
Glad you enjoyed it
Please enjoy the car. Whatever it takes make it happen. I have a '68 f100 with a 302Clevor i never got running because i got a family before i figured out the 157 v 163 tooth flywheel and 11" clutch requirement. Oh yeah, the 351c i removed for the clevor i left on my uncle's paved apron on a tire and asked my dad to pickup and bring home. Oops. Uncle let it go not knowing anything and dad being dad (not bothered by car stuff unless his 63-1/2 galaxie 500). Well i am almost finished w/ front disc conversion thanks to your encouragement. Memories can be costly but they are a joy that no money can buy!😎
Agreed!
I so remember getting the issues back in the day, just for that project car... I love the 1971-73 mustang... Mustang Monthly I would buy at the newsstands when I would get paid from my job at McDonalds when I was a 16 year old kid. When I would get home I would read Mustang Monthly from cover to cover. Then I would pull all the pictures of any of the 1971-73 mustangs and put them on the wall. I wanted a 1971-73 mustang my entire life. and 20+ years ago I finally got one. Have worked on it ever since.
Jeff what a touching story and I’m so glad you shared it. I almost had a ‘71 Mach with a ram air 351 when I was a Ford mechanic fresh out of high school. Unfortunately I just couldn’t make deal. It was basically abandoned at the dealership. If I can ever find a good deal on a ‘72 sprint fastback I’ll make owning one a reality. Until then I’ll have to be happy with my ‘66 fastback. I bought it 4 years after the ‘71 deal fell through. That was in 1984 and I had been in the military for 2 years by then. It was also the same time I finally broke down and subscribed to Mustang Monthly. A subscription I kept for over 20 years. My father found it for me, tipped off my an original owner of a ‘66 coupe he was repainting. The car belonged to the guy’s brother and it was outside of Spartanburg. We went up and the deal was made. It was a factory GT born with a 4 speed and equaloc rear! It was the last car my father painted for me (Silver Blue) before he passed a number of years later. Yes, I still own it to this day, 40 years this month.
I have a lime 💚 green 72. Great story Jeffro. I love you dear brother.
Jeff I love the description of the want ads
I have always loved a fast back Mustang. The Mach1 is not my favorite body style. Unless it's in yellow. The yellow definitely makes it look good. Great story, thanks for sharing.
Nice story.
They are great cars, we have one. Make it into a great driver, and enjoy! Meanwhile, we sure hope it finds it's way indoors in the winter...
Jeff , thank you for sharing your story and spilling your thoughts out! Nobody! I mean nobody understands the connection between Our Mustangs? I was addicted to Ford cars at a early age, as my father only drove fords! My dad made sure my older brother had a conservative 66 mustang with 6 cylinder with 50 k miles on It for a first car. It still smelled new back in 76. When I turned 14 in 77 my dad had asked if I wanted a car? Surrrre! $75.00. later came home my first mustang , a 1966 mustang 289 c-4 convertible with a 100k on the odometer. But the car ran ! It made Fred Flinstone proud with the rotten floorboards for stopping , but it was mine! I have been hooked ever since! Again Jeff thank you for sharing your 72 Mach 1 it’s a beautiful car, we see past everything and the potential of our dream cars . 7:55 thank you for Llc of your writing expertise with Mustang Monthly! I have every issue
Jeff, my story kinda like urs, but I'm close to the end of a two year restoration. Not that I haven't taken breaks along the way, because of lack of initiative.
Mine is gunna be a restomod, Wayne's stang, 1970 mustang Mach 1, summit racing estimates my 302 build will have 400hp but at the point of connecting the engine back up to the car, the water, electrical, and vacuum lines, been so long I've forgotten what under the hood looked like, I've pretty much have the water and electrical laid out. Vacuum lines however I have no clue - changes along the way, block bored out .60 over, new .60 over stock pistons, a magnum comp cam 280 duration 512 lift a highrise aluminium intake with a Holley 600 cfm 4160 with the washable k&n red full filter oval breather, I closed the hood very slowly the first time, it clears, yeah, four speed car, not the top loader.
Any helpful hints on hookup would be greatly appreciated, just North of Houston Texas
I just recently bought myself a 76 torino I love many things about it but one of the coolest things was that it was made of July 4th of 76 can't get any more American that that.
You build that car for you brother!!!!
Well good luck with it, I would never sell it either. Looks good!!
Thank you for sharing your story. I used to subscribed to the Mustang Monthly. Glad you are getting back to the Lazarus project.
Those 71-73s are now expensive. 20 years ago, heck, even 10 years ago they were cheap compared to the 65-70 models. Glad you got a nice toy when they were much more affordable. Great video! Dont ever sell it until you absolutely have to.
I really enjoyed you sharing your Mustang journey, fully in agreement with your build it how you want it. A nice stock looking cruiser is hard to beat. In 1973 I lucked into (OK that luck cost $1500) a completely stock '69 Cobra & that's the route I've always taken. Other than aluminum PI intake, engine is still stock (hefting a cast iron, FE intake quickly kills any dream of remaining completely stock). I've added options that would have been available when new such as AM/FM, race mirrors, etc. In '17 I installed P/S. Yeah, the old man had gotten tired of using both hands to make sharp corners and shift at same time. In '92 I'd installed the quicker ratio P/S sector, and it was much stiffer to steer. After procrastinating 25 years, I finally succumbed and installed the full system.
My all time Favorite Ford ever, Have owned 66,67,68,71,06 Mustang, the 68 was even a California Special, but still the 72 Mach 1... Wow
I have to agree on that I've owned a 67 Mustang Fastback and this car and I have to say the 72 styling still gets me every time I see it
I have my dad’s original 71 fastback that I came home from the hospital in. I drove it in high school (was a POS) and then it sat outside for 19 years. Four year restoration that was completed right before he passed. It literally is a family member, so i understand the passion.
Sorry for the loss of your father. But at least he got to see it done
Am I the only one that likes the look of the body lined Door handles that don't stick out? Only other variation I've seen ford offer I liked equally to that was on early 60's T-bird when the door handle was the trim.
I enjoyed your writing in the mustang mags. When I first turned 16 I wanted one of these big swoopy mach 1s. This was what a mach 1 to me was. Finally wound up with a 70🙂 At that time the 70 didn't seem as tough as the 71. Since then the mach 1s have been my favorite cars. Really can't understand anyone not liking a 71-72 mach 1. A dealer sent me to Aiken in the early 80s to pick up a 69 mach 1🙂
The Missus really wants a 69 Mach 1 but they're kind of out of our price range right now
@@AutoRestoMod yes 69s are hot. I have a 72 that I like a lot. It's Bright Lime 🙂
bravo, great legacy project.
Looking forward to videos on this car. It’s a beautiful machine.
You and me both!
Time has a way of taking its toll on everything. I'm looking forward to seeing Lazarus come back to life.
Awesome brother!
I was a MM subscriber for years from probably '83 to 90. I owned a very basic '71 Mach 1. I don't remember the Lazarus Project, but that doesn't matter. I do still own The Mustang Recognition Guide, Farr's Boss 302 Trans-Am Pony Car, and Heasley's Ford Mustang Book.
Me too. All good stuff. I was there from late 1996 to 2004.
I bought a 1967 mustang fastback in Oct. 1972 and still have today 52 years later. I turned down 65k last year and show every year.
Looking forward to a series of videos on the mustang.
I have a 63 1/2 Galaxie 500 which I bought in 1986 the year after I graduated high school. It has never been fully restored just a decent looking driver. My Dad and I worked on it together and I drove it throughout the late 80's and early 90's but some engine issues sidelined the car and some personal things left me with very little money and the car sat idle for years . In the later 2000's my Dad and first cousin built me another 390 and that engine sat on the stand in the garage for a few more years but finally I got it back in the car and now it's back on the road. The car has a lot of sentimental value to me since my Dad and cousin helped me work on it and they have both passed on. It will never be sold as long as I'm still kicking.
My dad owned a 63 and a half Galaxie 500 back in the late 80s, Two door, black with blue interior and the 390, was a beautiful car and quite a rare year, I did my road test in it back in 89, The instructor couldnt believe it. My dad regrets selling it to this day
Thanks for sharing that I appreciate it
Thanks!
The 123 Mustang is my favorite
I fell in love with the 71 Mach1 when my neighbor, who restored 65-66 Mustangs, brought one home when I was 16, back in 1981. I bought it and paid him monthly payments. Had to rebuild the engine, 351C 2V, and drove it through college. Thought I needed a newer car and bought a new GT. Bought a 67 fastback that same year for $800. Thought I no longer liked the 71-73. When I turned 50, I decided I wanted to build another and found this one a couple years ago. Been working on it here and there, but still needs a lot of work. I have all the parts, just not a lot of time. Hope to take it on Power Tour next year. ruclips.net/video/NTf8-sbrmDc/видео.htmlsi=hGqp47Cz436CGkTj
Thanks for sharing. It’s too bad, but that’s what happens to a lot of cars. 😢
It's not anything cool, but I definitely can relate to the feeling of the matching car birthdate. The first NEW car I bought is my 2011 Camry, that just so happens to have the exact same birthday as me.
Very cool!
A '71 was my first Mustang. I love them. It drove me insane to take it to car shows in SoCal just to hear people say things like "that's not a real mustang" and "Oh this is the ugly years." I actually stopped going to car shows because of it. It was a time to either fight people or leave the community. I've had some crazy cool cars over the years and nothing brings out the idiots like picking a car that's not in the cool kids club.
I didn't care what people thought, and that's probably because of the rebel artist in me. LOL, my quip was always, I guess it is a good thing you don't own one then, isn't it?
I know how you feel. I got my first car in 94 It was a 68 mustang needing restoration. I fixed her up and she was my daily driver until 08. I go another car because gas was killing me she was regulated to weekend cursing and shows. Around 2015 my health took a turn for the worse, I no longer had disposable income it all went to doctors and hospitals. I recently took the car cover off and she fell into disrepair transmission shot floorboards gone Interior rotted. Only thing going for her now is the engine still runs like a new one.
We still have my wife's first car sge ever bought., a 73 Mustang. I purposed in her car , conceived our first child in this car as well brought home our child in this car. Never going to sell it.
if you have the car you dream about, be happy and keep it, Or you can be an idiot like I was, and trade your dream car off on a newer one and regret it ever since.
Get it inside, don’t use a car cover outside unless you are park on some type of vapor barrier on bare ground!
I had a 73 Mustang.Mark one that's cooler ever happened to buy the Pennsylvania winners to care about end up.Getting a truck for work wasn't practical practical for me
Magnificent
Thank you

The reason you have a 72 Mach1 is because they are badass. End of story. No further explanation required haha. How ya been doing brother? Sorry i have been away for a while but over the last two years I've lost my uncle, my Dad, and my wife to health issues.
Don't forget the metal rear window louvers.
I'm sad to hear that you lost so many people. My story is pretty similar there. But yeah Mach 1s are badass
