vamach1 Posted May 22 Share Posted May 22 (edited) I found these online (Facebook) on a posting from 2017 of old pictures taken by the original owner of my 72 Mach1. He was with the US State Department and was overseas in the 1960s and 1970s and had the car shipped to Europe in late 1971 (build date Aug 71) and brought the car back to the US in 1981. I saw an ad for it for sale in 1981 and I bought the Mach1 for a grand total of $1650. I still have the car and over the years I added the wheels, stripes, spoilers and have driven it over 115,000 miles in the last 42 years. The Hotwheels picture was taken on May 11th, 2024.

Zen Posted May 23 Share Posted May 23 Wow, cool story and that you still have it is amazing! I think you got a heck of deal on it back in 1981. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
webestang Posted May 24 Share Posted May 24 Man that Pony is stunning!!!!! Scotty so jealous! I was 16 in 1981 and driving a 71 VW Super Beetle dreaming of owning a Mustang. That did not happen till 83 when I got my 68 Coupe. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vamach1 Posted May 26 Author Share Posted May 26 (edited) Picked up a nice trophy today at a show in Fort Lauderdale. There was a nice variety of cool cars including various years of VWs. Probably one more show before I have the car shipped to Arizona to the house. Three years of apartment and condo living in Mimi has been enough for me.
