PS: My neighbor has a 73 6 cylinder convertible, it can be driven and seems to run good but it needs to be restored. He is asking 2,500 if anyone needs a project.

Ralph, They're both gorgeous. I love the mach...man is that going up like a speeding bullet now.
How do you have an upstairs and downstairs garage. I think we're all interested in seeing that configuration.
Also, your motorbay is so shiny, what are you using on the aluminium?

Paul and Sundown we have 3 garages on the main level of the house and I have a full basement 2/3 of which are workshop and the other garage. Here is a picture of our house. to the right of the picture is the upper garages to the left of the house is the lower garage. I get to the lower garage via a back driveway. The pictures were taken when we were having a garage sale hence the junk on the driveway. You can see the blue thing on the left that is the Mustang under a car cover while the garage sale is on.


As for the shine in the engine bay (I'm sure it was flash enhanced)I do use the Alcoa Aluminum care system. The particular product I use is ALCOA's PDQ polish/cleaner. I ordered it off of the web. Just do a search on Google to locate a source. They use the product on AL truck wheels.

Steve good price if the body is straight and no rot. Body panels for the bigger Mustangs were hard to get when I restored this one5-6 years ago. They did not make many in 71-73. '72 was the lowest production year for the Mustang only made 13,000 Mach 1s

Hope ya'll have a great new Year.

Ralph,

Good pictures and now I understand upper and lower garage!
Lil Cobra does need a Turkey Pan so get it polished, fitted, and on by May.

Hey Ralph, I'll give $2500.00 for your Mustang, my bad, wrong car. My son Chris is spending New Years in Gatlinburg, hows the weather, he never calls us to check in.

Alan Kinda like the $1000 trailer...? You are bad. Gayle has given up trying to get me to sell it. Weather is great we were up in Pigeon Forge this afternoon in the 60's and sunny. If Chris needs anything Butch and I are local so don't hesitate 865-457-0461

Turkeys keep messing with my pictures...

Best to you Happy New Year to the Weavers

Ralph,

I located the PDQ polish at Southwest Wheel in Dallas. I ordered a kit to get me started. My alumimium inner panels are hard to get clean and hard to keep that way. Maybe this stuff will be the answer. Atleast it's an attempt. I've ordered other stuff for aluminium and have not been satisfied. Too much work and effort for the results.

Happy New Year.

Chris

Thanks Clay and Phil some things are keepers. Been watching the B-J Auction can't believe some of the stuff folks are selling that have been in their family for tens of years! Folks that apparently have lot of bucks and relatively young.
