Thanks very much guys, will look into it.

Another question, your opinion on a color change?
or is it better (worth more) in its original colors?

im thinking a Silver with Fluro orange stickers with 18 inch billets?? Something different.

Ill attach a pic of how it looks at the moment.

Might just stick with the basic yellow?

Honest opinion is preferred, no hard feelings.

your paint don't look half bad wouldn't paint it. worth more original color worth even more with original paint if paint is good. but if you don't like yellow (i'm not a fan of it) then do what you want siler and orange would deffinatly be defferent. I can't quite picture it but do what you want to it is your canvas put your personality into it. I personally like clean solid colors but then again i'm a earth tone boring kinda guy

Mr Fastback · 11-26-2002

I think you are right, stick with yellow, its been sitting outside in the weather for 3 months. I just washed it and does not look half bad. Its now in the garage for a bottom end rebuild. Having a hard time getting off the extractor bolts not a good start. Need to buy myself a special snap-on spanner.

Now that i think about it, how did i go with out driving it for the last 3 months. Ill be working flat out to try get it back to life for the cruise down to the island.

I personally believe, since it is a Mach I, I would leave it the orignal color. Worth so much more!

I love that year Mach I, I had a friend in high school that had a burnt orange, for lack of better words, with black markings. That thing was FAST!!!!

Good luck on the rebuild! Take pictures and let us know how your doing.

I would go with black type 20 stipes and call George at Mustang Country Down-under, he has good sources in the states

OzPony · 11-27-2002

Mustang Country Down Under - 5422 2703
