My 1971 Mach I - Two years in the making
#1
The restoration process took almost two years and I could not be any more proud of it as I am now. The original color was white, but I just couldn't resist the Prowler Red.
I have several new and used parts left over, so if anyone is interested in parts, ask.
Also, the original interior was Vermilion and the seat covers (except driver side) is near perfect.

Looks like you did a great job and two years is pretty good time for a home restoration. Any engine or interior pictures?

Very, very nice! A job very well done. Congradulations! Any more pictures to share with us? What type of parts do you have left. I am always on the lookout. Any factory steering wheels?

Welcome, and thanks for sharing your inspiration.

He must really cherish his Mach 1 and it's probably a comfort to him to know that you will give it a good home. That's a really long friendship!
