Well, my 2013 GT has finally gotten a big brother to share the garage with. I just got this awesome 1973 Mach 1 in Grabber Blue with Argent stripes. So, what do you guys think??

I don't know what it is, but I just CAN'T fall in love with Grabber Blue - but that is one MEAN machine! :nice:

Nope, Florida! I found it in Michigan, and it has been there it's entire life. So, I guess after 40 years & 86,000 miles, she is entitled to retire to sunny Florida

That is seriously just remarkable!

I'm Tyler by the way.

Once again great ride!

Future plans?

Hi Tyler, Bill here.

Just plan to bring her back to as original as possible. No mods as this is a numbers matching Mach, with exception to the color. It was born Gold with a black vinyl roof, and the previous owner removed the roof, took her down to bare metal and did a $4k paint job 6 years ago. I much prefer the Grabber blue with Argent stripes. I don't think I would have bought it if it was still gold with a vinyl roof.

I may add the Ram Air even though it wasn't offered on the 351C 4V.

The grabber blue turned out to be a great looking color on that car.

I hope to one day have a couple of ponies in the garage.

Looks great! :nice:

bill0754 May 27, 2013 05:37 AM

Thanks! I think the Grabber Blue works well on this body too. Especially with the stripes.

RaceRed50 May 27, 2013 07:11 AM

Grabber Blue is one of my favorite colors! Beautiful Mach!

bill0754 May 27, 2013 09:21 AM

Thanks! Just waiting to get it registered & tagged, and I will get some better photos

Congrats on the find! In a perfect world, I know I'd be able to get something classic in the garage, but not in the current home we have. Very cool collection you have now

bill0754 May 28, 2013 03:20 AM

Thanks! Love your GB Convertible!

DanGTCS May 29, 2013 06:24 PM

Well my 2013 Mustang GT and 1973 Mach 1 have just anounced the arrival of thier little brother...a custom 1978 Cobra II Dressed like a 1976 Cobra II....but with a Ford Racing Engine pushing about 225hp.

I will get some better photos along with the Mach after I get this baby registered.
