Comp Orange Mach1 build on 2015

[derklink]

i’ll probably end up getting a used mach1 later down the line and hope to have a 70 and 04 in the stable but you are correct unlimited to what you can do

I like that! 70 is bad ass, unfortunately those have reached insane prices, 04 still a bargain I believe. What about a 71 Mach 1? If I had the time and space, I'd definitely get a fastback from the 68 to 70 era. Probably my favorite car next to my Bullitt.

they are up in price but it can always be a restoration project for a long while if i do. i prefer the 68-70s the Shinoda era

So it’s been a while but the hour is far from over the car has been under construction for last few weeks being wrapped in Dark Gloss Gray, awaiting tons of carbon fiber, new wheels and tires, air ride 3p kit, new 5.0 shaker kit, stainless works long tube headers, cervinis side exhaust kit bunch of new body panels and wednesday i go pick up my donor (2016GT, side impact 50k miles for 7.5k). Pics a glimpse of the changes but car will not
look and or sound like and ecoboost mustang. think i maybe the first eco to 5.0 full car swap out there.

been busy working on other peoples car finally did some work on my own.

there are about 30 part not including the engine swap i still need to do from my donor car like 3P airlift, cervini side exhaust finish wrapping, install new hood, long tubes, figure out if i will use the shaker or the boss 302 kit i have, and all the little things to complete and or make the details. gonna be a long process but in the end it’s gonna be the best damn Mach1 out there in S550 form. (may do power adder too)

Lost track! Spend more time working on customer builds only do a few hours here and there. Over all this build started in 2019 and the 13 pages document the numerous transformations.

I might put some felt or thin plastic washers under those bolt heads so you don't pull on the wrap like you can see in one of those panels.
