Hello from Melbourne, Australia

[THE 71]

Hi Everyone,

I came across this site by accident yesterday and it’s good to see that there so many enthusiasts of the Mustang Mach1. I purchased mine (a 1971 Mach1, 429CJ, red with black decals, restored) from a dealer in St. Louis, MO earlier this year. I didn’t get to see or drive the car before I bought it but I was lucky and it arrived in very good shape with just a few minor mechanical repairs being needed.

As I have stumbled across this site of Mach1 experts, I would like to know if anyone can tell me how many 429’s were manufactured in total (… in 1971 of course – that much I do know).

OK, that’s all for now. I’ll try and include a couple of photos with this post which were taken by the dealer. The last pic is one of me at my work place – arriving in style of course, but not looking as cool as my car!


Cheers Everyone,
Thomas

Welcome Thomas.

Sharp looking Mach 1!

Okay, not sure of my source but here are the numbers I came up with:
1971 429 CJ - 86 hardtop - 42 conv - 1687 sportsroof

How long ago did you import your Mach 1? Did you have any trouble getting it imported?

Enjoy the site.

Welcome to the site Thomas! Looks like the restoration was very thorough.

WOW BEAUTIFUL MACH 1 WELL DONE!!

What size tires and wheels?

Does anyone know where one might come up with the specific number of SCJ's, 351's and 302's produced in the Mach 1's for each year.

Thomas would be interested in those numbers and I have not been able to come up with a resource for him. Sorry for the delay Thomas.
