bill0754 Posted August 31, 2006 Report Share Posted August 31, 2006 Just thought I would post a few shots of my two ponys together. You all know the 2007, so let me introduce my 1970 Mach. It just turned 30,000 original miles. It sports a 351C with a 4 speed. At least the Shelby won't be alone in the garage at night!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've got a '73 Mach 1 351C factory ram air. Unfortunately it is an automatic. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Unfortunately it is an automatic. I've had the '70 a little over 2 years now. Been slowly detailing her. She had only 26,700 when I purchased her from the 2nd owner in SC. How long have you had the '73? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's great! I had a 1970 Mach with the 428SCJ in high school...way back in 1975. I paid $1,275 back then for it. I think it had around 20,000 miles on it then. I always wanted another and came across this one a couple of years ago. Since it was in great shape, and the white/white color scheme was unique I couldn't resist This time, I paid $25,000!! But it's only going up in value each year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As I recall I paid about $3200 for the car in high school. The '71-'73 model year is not as popular as the earlier Mustangs. My guess is mine is worth maybe $10-15K today. Of course I don't own her as an investment, just sentimental at this point. At $25K for yours I'd say you got a good deal especially with those low miles!

The Shelby may be faster, but the 1970 is irreplaceable Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mustang Joe Posted September 2, 2006 Report Share Posted September 2, 2006 I still have a lot of convincing to do :wacko: I've had to commit to a bathroom renovation to keep the peace. I like to think of it as AWM - Additional Wife Markup. :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MACHMAN Posted January 17, 2007 Report Share Posted January 17, 2007 Just thought I would post a few shots of my two ponys together. You all know the 2007, so let me introduce my 1970 Mach. It just turned 30,000 original miles. It sports a 351C with a 4 speed. At least the Shelby won't be alone in the garage at night!! Same as my stable. 70 Mach 1 351c 4v, 4 spd, original shaker, rear spoiler. metalic lime green. 1 repaint on original metal. many more miles, but in great condition. It is a fun driver, but it won't see much road time now that I got my GO 'vert. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just bought a '07 Lincoln MKX to add to the mix. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
