My new Mach 1

[mustangjohnny]

Ok, Ok I guess its time to spill the beans! I have just been nervous to say anything due to the last couple of cars I have had lined up have fallen through. Well, Me and my 11 year old daughter jumped on a plane and flew out, picked it up and drove it home! The car is mine so I guess I am safe to let the cat out of the bag!
It is a 2003 Mach 1!!!!!!
I have some cool plans for it including the '04 Cobra IRS, The '04 Viper Spec 26 spline T56, and the Cobra R spec Bilstiens. Who knows, Maybe someday I will Pull an Eaton conversion!
All it needs are the stripes put back on, the P.O. took the off because he liked the sleeper look, I think it needs the stripes so they will be going back on. Wow...I do not know what I will do, I will not have a project car... I will be lost!
Thanks to Rols574 for all your help getting this car home! Couldnt have done it without you buddy!!!!
Enjoy!
Johnny

We were so dead dog tired That we did not even take any more pics that night. We rolled into our driveway at 12:20 A.M. What a long day that made for...We flew about 6 hours (2500 miles) and drove 1450 miles in a day and a half!
Last picture, The new Mach in the garage with the comatose Terminator

So I see said the blind man to his deaf & dumb wife.
The other picture it has no trunk deck or bumper cover, looks like you made some progress with it.

Thats funny!
Well,
Actually, the pics I posted were taken when I first bought the car...I spent the last 11 months putting it back together and it was almost finished when the bottom dropped out...so I listed it with the pics of when I bought it as I took it back apart. I had a couple of people interested in buying it as an almost complete roller...but they fell through.
I sold the engine and a couple of other things and then stopped dis assembling it and I am going to stick it in my storage unit and forget I have it until I get my '93 Saleen whooped back into shape, I have kinda let it go while I have been working on the Cobra

I'm sure your daughter will take it when you are done.
Has she asked to be taught how to drive a stick in the Mach 1 yet?
"Dad take me out on back roads no one will see us" that's what my daughter said.
Looks like she will be in drivers ed soon.
