My old friend

1969

Ford

Mustang

Acapulco Blue

Mach 1 (63C body code), 351W 4bbl engine, automatic transmission, 3.25 rear axle, eight track player, Magnum 500 wheels

I purchased this car in 1995 as a restoration project - I like to say it was a refuge from a high school body shop. It took me until the end of 1997, but I restored the body, suspension, engine, transmission - ok, I didn't repair the rear valance and the decklid - easier to list what wasn't restored.

Completely stock under the hood

Reproduction replacement upholstery, seat foam, carpets, and replaced many interior panels.

Treated to a urethane base coat/clear coat finish in 1997 in it's original Acapulco Blue with flat black hood.

set the factory eight track player aside for a 'late model' Clarion cassette player from the eighties.

Big block leaf springs, big block shocks

Magnum 500 wheels and BFGoodrich Radial T/A modern radials
