Still have a lot assembly work to do along with the interior and extras that we are doing for the show this year!

looking good, mine was down 2 years ago and I was in Iraq last year. I hated going Stangless that year and will not do it again

[z28th1s]

Very nice!!!

[pilatti1]

What a sweet looking ride.....get going on putting it back together you have 3 months ....lol I want to see it up close & personal :tup:

[sam@htpmotorsports.com]

I miss my 69 mach, in hindsight it was less of a money pit than the turbo car

[GeoSnake]

Scott,
I'm glad it's finally home. I look forward to seeing it in person in the next couple of weeks.

[StoneCold]

Very Very nice Mach 1. :cool:
What's under the hood?

[09shelby]

Very nice Stang!!!

[SM69Mach]

Thanks guys. I am hoping to have it mostly back together very soon, it has been a long time since I have been able to enjoy it so I want to get out there and have some fun with it.

It has a 390 under the hood that is fairly stock, with a stock rebuild, mild cam, alum intake and long tube headers with custom exhaust.

[bonesgt]

That's great news Scott!! Can't wait to see her!

[70boss]

glad to see some more old iron,.good luck with your 69.

[03machone]

Hope it makes it to Mustang Week this year. My son has a '69 Mach 1 same color, 351 Windsor, white interior, restored to factory specs. He tried soooo hard to finish it in time for MW 2009 but didn't make it, so he's really looking forward to bringing it this year. I still want to get you, my son, your brother and my dad together @ MW 2010. You and Matthew have matching '69 Mach 1's and my dad and your brother have matching
'68 convertibles. Your car looks great!!!

Well, my plan is to drive the car to the beach this year, if it can make the ride. If it cant, I will drag it down there with a damn chain if I have to j/k HAHA. But yes I would love to get these cars together for some pictures at some point during the week as well. Make sure to look us up when you get down there for sure.

Thanks
Scott

[SLOWBRA]

Can't wait to cruise around with ya Scott.. For those that haven't seen this in person yet, you are in for a TREAT!!!!

[toadmorgan]

We WILL be cruising to the beach this year. Can't wait to see it in person finished. Only got to see it a couple of times during at the paint shop. Hard to believe we have had our cars for over 20 years, man we are getting old. Talk to you soon bro.

[03machone]

Looking forward to that!! Your car looks great and you've got lots of time to get it ready to drive to mustangweek.:tup: I can see the 2 68's and the 2 69's leading us down OD when we do the invasion!!! LOL

I missed it last week when you dropped it off Scott, but I bet you saw mine sitting there @ Phil's. Can't wait to see it!

[Rev's 5.0]

Scott that thing is looking sweet! Cant wait to see it in person. You and your Bro both have some awesome rides! Hopefully we'll be able to bring Anita's 65 down to MW to cruise with yall in a couple of years!

[SM69Mach]

Thanks guys, Well good news bad news. The car is coming together, but I was able to diagnose a bad head gasket last weekend, that I thought I had for some time, but wasnt sure. going to tear into the motor this week and try to get it back up and running soon. Still should be able to make it to the beach.

Better to find it now instead of pulling in at the carshow at the beach. Be praying you get it fixed soon!

[rodcobra]

HURRY UP :p

[03machone]

Yea, hurry up 'cause you just gotta have that '69 @ Mustangweek this year!!

[SM69Mach]

I am working on it guys, but one way or another it will be there. We had to replace the worn out torque converter this past weekend with a new one, but good news now is the car is running pretty good. I have some more install work to do since I had to fix two pretty big projects mechaincally on the car since getting it back. Not sure I will be driving it all the way to the beach this year, but it will be there. I have some video that I will see if I can get posted as well.

[SM69Mach]

Just a quick video of start up and quick test drive after the Torque conveter replacement

I followed Scott for a couple miles a few weeks back and the car is awesome. It is a real head-turner for sure!
