Well I am a sucker for the 69/70 models. I would trade my 73 only for a 70. It was a manual and I am a sucker for those too. If you love the 69 version and the car isnt a rust bucket (I am curious what 50% of the car is done) then I would jump on it. Factory 69 mach manual car with hopefully most of the hard stuff fixed and hard to find stuff there...I would jump on it. Post up a pic when you can! I am very curious on the factory color!!! Good luck

I WOULD SAY THE PRICE IS NOT TOO BAD. AS LONG AS THE RUST REPAIR IS ALL DONE, AND DONE AS GOOD AS A PROFESSIONAL WOULD DO IT. IS THE FOUR SPEED INCLUDED IN THE SALE? ALSO ANOTHER BIG TICKET ITEM IS THE FOLD DOWN REAR SEAT. IF ALL OF THAT AND THE TRIM AROUND IT IS THERE THAT WOULD HELP TOWARDS THE ASKING PRICE OR BRING IT DOWN IF ITS NOT ALL THERE. GOOD LUCK!!!

Sounds about right. A lot rides on the work all ready done (it's quality) and what is left to do.
I like the 69's.
Be sure to include a photo when it all works out.

Sounds like a fair price if it is not a rust bucket and is mostly there. I've seen some bad looking ones for sale over the last year for about that price.

IF THAT HAS FOUR MATCHING WHEELS LIKE THE ONE IN THE PICTURE, AND YOU DON'T USE THEM, THERE IS SOME EASY MONEY BACK IN YOUR DIRECTION......LOOKS LIKE A GOOD BUY.....WERE YOU ABLE TO GET IT ANY LOWER THAN ASKING PRICE?
