Notes: |
Bought nearly new in Feb. 1973, with low, low miles. Added my original old school mods in the 70's.
Many good stories involve my Mach 1.
Once, in a moment of frustration with the original and leaking Holley 735, my long time buddy, Jim, talked me out of tossing the match I had just used to light a Marlboro red onto the hot intake. I cooled off quickly and thank my pal nearly every time I talk to him.
Trailering The Mach from Delaware to Texas was met with lots of waves and honking from cars & truckers all along I-95 South, and every stop we made it always drew a few or a small crowd of car nuts, young and old. My new wife was amazed at how a car could draw such attention, but then, it's not just any old car.
My son & daughter grew up loving The Mach and pester me to do a restification. |
