Ford Mustang 1973 Description

1973 Mach 1 Numbers Matching Car

I bought this Q code, Hurst 4 speed with AC in 2004 and she has been garage kept since.The included Marti Report shown in the photos document this to be a one of one Mustang for 1973. I have only painted the car in 12 years and done routine maintenance.You may have seen her on Ebay recently but I canceled the auction because “with a little help from my friends” we pulled a valve cover and the starter to determine that the block, heads and transmission are indeed correct by production casting numbers and dates for the March 1973 manufacture date.

Features:

-This car cranks immediately, NO smoke, accelerates strong and drives well.

-Correct 351 Cleveland engine block and heads by casting numbers and production dates

-Correct 9" 3.25:1 rear end by VIN, required with AC cars. - No tag.

-Correct 4 speed by transmission tag RUG-BJ1 with Hurst shifter

-Correct AutoLITE 4300 4B carb

-AC tag correct with build date 02/73. AC works! Converted.

-The intake manifold has a performance upgrade with a Shelby model (951D-9424-D). Easy to return to original if desired.

-Electronic ignition.

-PS and alternator do not have date tags.

-Glass is very good.

-Fold down back seat

-Sweet sounding exhaust sound has no leaks.

-Seats and dash without tears or significant wear.

-Power steering and power brakes (front disk).

-Original forged aluminum wheels.

-Tachometer works.

-The factory vinyl 3/4 roof was removed by the previous owner. Easy to replace if desired.

-The AM/FM radio was working at the time I installed an under dash modern radio. I believe it to be fine as it the red station light on the unit comes on at the appropriate frequency for local stations.

-Tires with 60-70 tread remaining.

-No trunk or floor pan rust.

-Front end is sound.

-Lighting, brakes, transmission work good.

Issues:

1- Rt door, front lower with a ¼” paint bubble.

2- rear bumper with barely detectable inward bend.

3- front spoiler with two small bends from parking curbs.

4- engine bay clean but not dressed out.

5- driver door edge with small chips where I have opened it into the wall beside where she is garaged.

6-Only interior injury is 2 in crack in driver door arm rest now covered with electrical tape.

7- Oil pan non-leaking weld from when I bought the car (in photos).

8- Fuel gauge not working (gauge or sending unit?)

This is a top of the line solid driver quality car.A one of one production with many desirable features. I have sought to accurately describe this car.I can email additional pictures of undercarriage, tires and casting numbers upon request.
