My 2013 GT's Older Brother
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??

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

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.

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

Another sibbling has arrived!
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.
