  1. It's going to be a stunning car when done.
  2. Yes it is a MKI engine.
  3. All together now. We are not worthy. Fantastic build.
  4. 2nd on the 351.
  5. It is hard to get into the head of why someone buys a unique car and then holds onto it until they die. I have owned my 72 Mach1 for 37 years. Now if someone offered me twice what it as worth I might sell it only if I could find a better replacement. People get attached to a car and most cars people hold onto do not end up being worth millions. Most logical people wold have sold the car five or ten or twenty years ago but time has a way of slipping by. The son is a complete fool if he does not sell it which would ensure his family an income for a few generations after the IRS or state tries to get a cut.
  6. The VINs of both cars have been authenticated. There was a story in Mustang Monthly about 20 year s ago about this hidden Mustang and the owner had no intention of letting anyone see it. The son came to his senses after the father died. This car may be worth multi millions,
  7. Count me in for a couple.
  8. You can paint the emblems or use the Keith Marks or old Fred Cady decals.
  9. Does the kit come with one. I do not remember.
  10. Thanks. No awards - just mainly new cars but you never know who or what may show up.
  11. That is a sweet ride. I like Mustangs but any muscle car is cool. I cannot resist driving my Mach1 and have almost 180K miles and it probably only looked this nice when it was new. I will be in the 2018 Washington Auto show Mustang display later this week.
  12. Too bad some cannot just build models and post about the and leave all the other nonsense to Facebook and Twitter.
  13. People forget that side of the equation. If they wait to a customer orders something instead of stocking items, takes payment and then the supplier has a backlog, finally ships the stuff and then the vendor does not pay quickly, the customer is going to be upset not knowing what is going on. I would prefer to only deal with people that either make the product on if they are a reseller they need let the customer know right away if the item is in stocker not.
  14. Looking good Cobrman. I wish I could crank out kits at your pace.
  15. Green with envy. Nice group. Too bad the 289 hipo was discontinued after 1967.
  16. 71 Boss 351 with < 900 miles went for $175K at Mecum. Not many Mustangs and some of the Mach1s were reasonable. The MPC Bosss kit is still bad- LOL.
  17. See what you started. Just say no to a GM powered Cobra.
  18. That side decal is far too big - just paint it. I have found if a simple part does fit just find a replacement. No one is going to care if you use 100% kit parts. From what I can see there is a lot of chrome trim that needs to be painted or covered with bare foil. There are very few kits I would say are perfect - they all have some issues.
  19. More info please on the Mark IV and Boss 302. These are my 1/43rd builds.
  20. I saw them in concert. Love the Zombie song. She was only 46.
  21. Did anyone notice they found the 2nd car that was kept in hiding for 40 years?
  22. We knew you could not stay away from Cobras. It is an addiction with no known cure.
