My g/f has a 71 Mach I - and I didn't even know it!
 

OK I was invited to my girlfriend's grandparents house for dinner. I was like ok. Then she said "Hey while we're there maybe we can ride down to Uncle James' house and look at my car."

So I was like "what car."

"My mustang, uncle James is redoing it for me"

"what year model is it?"

"I'm not sure but its old"

So we get to her grandparent's house and eat dinner. After that we go down to her uncle's house and there in his shop is a 1973 Mach 1. Not only is it a Mach 1 he swaped in a 429 with police interceptor heads and a lot of other stuff. The thing has 4.56:eek: gears in it!!! You wanna talk about commin off the line!!!!! I was totaly blown away. I've been going out with her for over a year and I'm just now finding out about this. What if she has a 66 GTO in her attic:D

The sad thing is he was going to restore it and let her have it when she turned 16, but now because he pulled out the 302 and put in the 429 she can't have it till she turns 21 (that sucks I wanted to drive it:D )

That's bad ***, I think you need to test drive it for her! What do you think?:D

Why doesn't she get it until she's 21 now? That's a crock....

Buy say...man.....I'll take that thing of her uncle's hands if he'd like for the 5 extra years.....of course, only if you don't mind....hehe:p :D

I think I hear wedding bells!

Take care,
-Chris

she is definetly a keeper
make sure she doesn't wreck it when she does get it though cause that would be a shame

Woh' man that is amazing. =) I don't see why 5 years to do that engine swap. None the less wait it out man. =)
That is one sweet deal you came across.

Take it Easy Man,
and Enjoy

He won't let her have it now because it has too much power and he dosn't want her the crash it. Thats why she can't have it till she's 21.

6t9 pony not a snowballs chance in H-E-double toothpicks.:D

oh and i forgot to ask
is she hot??????????/

I'm sure she is, but does it matter? Hell, I'll marry her uncle if he lets me drive the car.:D My ex-uncle-in-laws old boss (confussed myself on that one:confused: ) has a '70 Boss 302, sitting in a shed. Whats he doing with it? Nothing. Come to think of it, I should just marry him...

She is a very kind and loving individual. You guys can't have her:D


Now that she walked out of the room. YES!!!! she is hot.:D :D :D

:) chris.. i really didn't think you were that materialistic....:D
on the other hand..that's no reason to get married .. Ding Dong

drive straight and turn LEFT!!!!!! then turn right then left oops..i'm goin in a 8 again.. figure 8 rules..ever done that?:D

Well....tireburner...I just got off the phone with your girlfriend's uncle....I talked to her or a while also....such a sexy voice...hehe....

Anyways....he's shipping the car to Nebraska as soon as he can. Sorry man....but I got the hook up.....oh yeah...forgot to mention that he's shipping out his niece with the car!!!

:p :D :cool:

Sweet deal!

I wish my girl was into cars as much as I was....she's learning though....

Hell, I wish a lot of things.

Ah well...maybe one of these days we'll move past "dating" and into the g/f-b/f stage...by the way...does anyone really know the difference???

Ah hell...I need to go out and drive, but there's snow all over the ground and I cant....and so I sit at the computer and ramble...play solitaire over and over and over and over and over....AHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!

I NEED A LIFE!!!

:D hehehe just kidding with ya bud. Wish my girl was into cars, but I'm slowly teaching her. She has some funny questions, she asked the other night "How can you tell a car just by looking at it's back lights?" my friends and I had a good chuckle, lol :D Can't live with them, and can't live without them. lol

Take it Easy Guys,

dani-
Hehehe, I meant I heard wedding bells for tireburner, NOT ME!!! I don't believe in marriage. I've seen way too many great relationships get destroyed by it.

We have an "8" track set-up two or three times each season, but I've never driven in it. My balls aren't that big.

Take care,

6T9 pony what do you have a death wish or something.

j/k:D (or am I???)

Hey sounds like a good race for me. I hope u get a good job man a big block with 456 gears ouch! Can u say 4 mpg. My big block and 430s really do a job of emptying the wallet. Keep that girl around.

He put the 4.56 gears in because he had the rear-end laying around. He's gonna go with 3.55's later. Right now with the 4.56's all you get is tire smoke.

1969Mach1, I know what you mean about the girlfriend talking about how you can tell what car it is and all that crap....

I have improved her car vocabulary though. She now knows what an air cleaner is, the difference between tread/traction, the difference between wheels/tires, uhh....dang...I'm not a very good teacher.....:( :rolleyes:

She's getting better though. :cool:

lol yeh, my friends and I teach her as we're driving. We taught her difference between automatic and standard, rpm, I even showed her a fish tail. (Bad Idea!) lol She doesn't like it when I drive fast and doing a fish tail without warning only results into alot of angryness. lol =) hehehe.... I was in a van might I add. lol It was my best one yet too. lol =) It was very cool, but ya gotta teach them as you go along. She told me she didn't like my car cause the "thing on my hood" (My hood scoop) I'm like ouch, hehehe she is like it's ugly. lol She is like I like your dads car (1973 Corvette) hehehe.... I guess she won't like it if I add a Shaker hood scoop. lol =)

OK tireburner163, a little helpfull advice from uncle Topless tire fryer. Any man who has a ford 9 inch "laying around" is a god, and you should marry his neice. And as far as the 4.56's giving you nothing but smoke, wheres the bad part in that?

Seriously, when do you get to drive the car?;)

Ahh yes...my girlfriend does know the difference between auto and manual also....I remember a lot of other stuff I taught her also....but you guys already know it all, so I won't bore you....:D

My girlfriend did love my car though. It was very loud and she liked it when I revved it clear up. She DIDN'T like it when I'd do a burnout or when I'd slow it down to 25 on the highway and take it up to about 115....:D :rolleyes:

Guess what topless tire fryer...I have an original Mustang 9" Ford rear "lying around" in my garage as an extra....3.50 gears....posi-trac....looks pretty new....even has a nice pair of leaf springs attached to it....

What I have under my car is better though....Currie 9"....31 spline heavy duty axles (not that I need them quite yet but it's nice insurance)....3.70 gears....Traction-Lok....and brand new heavy duty leaf springs...

Does this mean I'm a God?
