1973 Ford Mustang Description

MY ...ONE OF A KIND....1973 "MUSTANG ....351 CLEVELAND 4 SPEED.. CUSTOM CONVERTIBLE ...UP FOR BID. $26,000 INVESTED. I BOUGHT IT 31 YEAR'S AGO IN 1984. IT ORIGINALLY HAD A 302 V8 3 SPD STICK IN IT. IN 1985 I FOUND A 1970 351 4BBL CLEVELAND 300HP FOR IT AND HAD IT REBUILT. THEN I BOUGHT A TUNNEL RAM WITH 2 4BBL CARBS AND A CAM & LIFTERS FROM SUMMIT RACING AND A DUAL POINT DIST & HAD THEM INSTALLED. PLUS HEADERS-SIDE PIPES- DUEL OIL FILTERS -EXC... AND I PUT A TOP-LOADER 4 SPD WITH A HURST COMPETITION PLUS SHIFTER & A 9" POSI REAR END IN IT. THE BODY AND THE CANDY SUNSET RED PAINT & THE 1971 MACH 1 STRIPES WERE DONE IN 1985 ALSO. I WAS WORKING 7 DAYS A WEEK WHEN I BUILT IT AND I DIDN'T HAVE TIME TO DRIVE IT. IT HAS BEEN STORED MOST OF THE TIME I HAVE OWNED IT. I DROVE IT A FEW TIMES & PROBABLY HAS LESS THAN 30 HOURS ON THE ENGINE IN THE PAST 30 YEARS. A FEW YEARS AGO I PULLED IT OUT & HAD THE INTERIOR REDONE IN RED METAL FLAKE. ALSO INSTALLED A NEW RED METAL FLAKE STEERING WHEEL. I ALWAYS HATED THE BIG UGLY 1973 BUMPERS ..SO I BOUGHT A NEW PAIR OF 1971 MUSTANG BUMPERS AND FIT THEM CLOSE TO THE BODY..I PUT A 1971 MACH 1 GRILL & FLIP OPEN GAS CAP ALSO. I BOUGHT 1967 COUGAR TAIL LIGHTS & INSTALLED THEM TO GIVE IT THAT SHELBY TYPE LOOK. I ALSO INSTALLED A SEQUENTIAL TAIL LIGHT KIT SO THE REAR TAIL LIGHTS BLINK..1-2-3..1-2-3...A COOL LOOK. I STARTED IT UP AND YARD DROVE IT TODAY..IT STILL RUNS GOOD. IT WILL NEED A SPEEDOMETER CABLE. I REMEMBER IT NEEDED A DIFFERENT ONE FOR THE 4 SPD & I NEVER GOT AROUND TO CHANGING IT. ALSO HAS A FEW CHIPS IN THE WINDSHIELD.. THIS CAR IS NOT A TRAILER QUEEN.. IT HAD A GOOD AMATEUR RESTORATION 30 YEARS AGO WITH LITTLE USE. STILL LOOKS GOOD FOR 30 YEAR OLD RESTORE. IT IS TIME FOR SOMEONE TO ENJOY IT INSTEAD OF IT SITTING IN THE GARAGE. SELLING IT AS IS....WHERE IS. WINNING BIDDER MUST PAY $500 PAY PAL AT AUCTIONS END . AND THE BALANCE IN CERTIFIED BANK CHECK OR TRANSFER OF MONEY. IT MUST CLEAR MY BANK BEFORE I WILL RELEASE THE CAR. BUYER IS RESPONSIBLE FOR ALL SHIPPING CHARGES. I RESERVE THE RIGHT TO END THE AUCTION EARLY. THIS CAR IS SOLD AS IS. THANKS FOR LOOKING !
