Proud '69 Mach 1 owner! At the starting line of bringing her back to former glory and looking for guidance as I do so.

Welcome new member. welcome to the club. That's a good looking project 69. My favorite body style. The 69s are the coolest and baddest looking right out of the box with no modifications. I look foreword to seeing it progress. I was wondering which direction your going with it? Stock MACH or modify MACH. Stock gets my vote. But it's your call and your car. Anyway welcome and enjoy.

Welcome from CT!! Real nice car...and it looks tough just the way the it sits! I would be a proud owner too. The 69 Mach 1's are my favorite as well.
As far as guidance, let us know what work the car needs and what your plans for a starting point on restoring the car?
Again, welcome!

Thanks everyone!
As for my plans I would love to go stock, however, being that this is my dream car and I don't anticipate every selling it I plan on veering a off a little. It was originally winter blue and I'm not much of a fan.
The next major plans are to repair the torque boxes and two spots in the rear rails that have rotted away.

All in all it looks like a good start. The body lines seem nice straight and even. Which helps improve the looks when finished. Welcome to the club, and Jump in anytime. JTS 71 Mach1
