I travelled long and hard to the central valley to a desolate town. There I encountered a friendly fellow that sold me this mustang. He had found it and just sat on it for 5 years. It was time for it to go as he was in a remodeling phase. The deal was made lightning fast as the phone rang incessantly. This car has a great body and I wouldn't hesitate to run it around as is. The motor looks like it will need to come out and be gone thru. The transmission linkage feels mushy and will need your attention. Everything mechanical should be examined before you hit 100 mph. This is a great color for the model. The interior is in sad shape. Yes this is a project that will require quite a bit of time and patience. Not for the faint of heart and light of wallet. Its got great bones and I can ship it to your doorstep. Is this your year to restore a killer mach 1? Harris
