Another added to the Stable

Post by Gazza »

A big brother has arrived for the '65 Mustang.

This one is a 1970 Mach 1 Mustang, 5.7 litre auto that has been tucked away in storage for 12 years. It needs a little TLC to the interior and engine bay (just a good clean basically) and a service prior to the MoT.

I love the Nostalgic Wolfrace wheels that some of you may be old enough to remember 8-)

Nice Gary, like it.

My brother is in the middle of a resto on a 68 Fastback. He sourced a 5 litre Cobra engine from the States but in the end has decided to stick with the stock 4.7 Windsor V8 (I think thats right).

Bet you could have a right natter !

There you go...

It just goes to prove that there is a way to get the cost of motoring down without having to buy a Toyota Pious (whoops, I meant Prius didn't I.... the car for those who think they are better than those of us polluting the planet).
