My New 1970 Mach 1 - Pitcha Perfect

Here is my new Mach 1 I promised pics. brad please kill the stolen car thread i don't need to see it anymore no more bad memeories. thanks. My mach 1 is almost all original except for the valve covers and the exhust thats it, the rest is all 70 mach. It was a strange story and a miricle this car is even still around. The car was a dealer donor car and was alomsot scrapped till one dealer decided to refit the car with all factory parts and sell it as new in 71. Out of all the cars i've had this one is the best and fact that this car survived is amazing. to me that is.

No mods for this stang it is fast enough for l.a. traffic. It has a comp cam. The only mod planned is a quartz conversion to the clock. I might put 18x9" magnum 500's on it just for the ride, and put the stock wheels on for shows. But as far as mods no mods. This car is locked away and will only be driven on weekends. I will take better pics on sunday..

Great looking car!!! I have a ? for ya though. I have a 66 GT Fastback, and am wondering how much better the 70 mach handles than 1st gen fastbacks? Alot more fun to drive?? Sorry your 65 got taken from you, but this one imo makes up for it and then some!!

omg the difference is like night and day, the 65 i had handled good but the turn radius was not great, this car turns on a dime and brakes alot better. The overall ride is the difference between a 65 and a 70. the tranny shifts nicer than the c4 i had. Its alot more fun to drive.
