Low mileage Mach 1 wants to be driven

Hi, I just bought a 2003 Mach 1 with 13,500 miles on it & obviously spent alot of time sitting in somebodys garage waiting for me to buy it...its obvious it likes being driven & having the stereo cranked up once in a while....FYI....not good for cars & motorcycles to not be driven once in a while.....its like a new car just waking up from a long nap.....

Nice find. The Mach 1 cars of that era were really never appreciated as much as the Cobras but NOW they are much more in demand with the prices going up considerably for the nice low mileage examples. My only recommendation, besides enjoying the car, is to change all the fluids in it. Years count just as much as miles in these situations, especially the brake fluid. Have fun!

If you go with headers . . . go with long tubes as shorties don't make much of a difference.

I noticed you made a CAI, does your mach not have the OEM shaker tubing/inlet box?
