THANKS FOR TAKING THE TIME TO LOOK AT MY CAR FOR SALE, I WILL DO MY BEST TO GO OVER ALL THE DETAILS OF THIS STUNNING ONE OFF EXAMPLE, FIRST OFF THE CAR WAS REPAINTED IN AROUND 1984 WITH THE BODY BEING SILVER WITH MAROON STRIPES, IT HAD A REAL 80'S FEEL TO IT, IT WAS IN SEVERAL CAR SHOWS IN THE YEARS FOLLOWING. IN 1987 THE CAR WAS PUT INTO STORAGE WERE IT SPENT THE NEXT 20 YEARS IN DRY STORAGE. IN 2007 THE CAR WAS PURCHASED BY A COLLECTOR NEAR WHERE I LIVE, THE 351C WAS REMOVED AND REBUILT FROM PAN TO CARB, THE ENGINE WAS BUILT TO RUN AT AROUND 375HP. THE CAR RUNS FINE ON PUMP GAS, BUT I ALWAYS RUN THE HIGHEST OCTANE I CAN BUY, JUST MAKES IT REALLY COME ALIVE. NOW THE AUTO TRANS WAS REBUILT ALSO AT THE SAME TIME, ADDING A SHIFT KIT WITH A 2500 RPM STALL, THE CAR IS A BLAST TO DRIVE. EXHAUST WAS DONE FOLLOWING THE MOTOR AND TRANS INSTALL, HAS TRUE DUAL EXHAUST ALL THE WAY TO THE BACK WITH ERA CORRECT CHROME TIPS. RIMS ARE VINTAGE FORD 500'S WITH NEW TIRES ALL AROUND. THE CAR WAS DRIVEN A TOTAL LESS THAN 1000 MILES FROM 2007 UNTIL THE TIME I PURCHASED IT IN 2012. WHEN I GOT THE CAR IT SPORTED THE SILVER/MAROON PAINT FROM THE DAY AND FRONT AND REAR SPOILERS ALONG WITH RAM AIR HOOD. I THEN TOOK IT TO MY LONGTIME FRIEND WHO HAS DONE BODY AND PAINT FOR THE LAST 25YRS. TO GO OVER WHAT WAS TO BE DONE NEXT. FIRST OFF I LIKED THE 71 TO 73 MACH 1'S BUT I DIDN'T LIKE THE LOWER AND BACKS OF THESE ERA CARS. SO TOGETHER WE TOOK THE MINDSET OF WHAT CARROLL SHELBY WOULD HAVE DONE HAD HE GOT THIS CAR TO WORK WITH. SO WE TOOK 1967 ERA SHELBY SPORTROOF SCOOPS AND FIBERGLASSED THEM IN THE SPORTROOF AND CRAFTED LATER MODEL SHELBY LOWER SCOOPS IN FRONT OF REAR TIRES AND IN FRONT FENDERS BEHIND THE TIRES. AND ALL THESE WERE FLAWLESSLY SEAMED IN AS VIRTUALLY PART OF THE CAR. THE CAR WAS THEN BLOCK SANDED SMOOTH TO LAY ON THE BLACK PAINT. THE WHITE STRIPES ARE DESIGNED BY US AND PAINTED ON SANDED SMOOTH. THE CAR WAS THEN COATED WITH 2 GALLONS OF CLEAR TO MAKE THE BLACK LOOK WET. I THEN HAD THE WINDOWS TINTED TO COMPLETE THE ALL BLACKED OUT LOOK AND ADDED ERA NEW REPRO. REAR ALUMINUM LOUVERS. I ALSO WANTED COVERS TO BLACK OUT THE TAILLIGHTS AND SINCE THEY DON"T EXIST FOR THESE CARS. I HAD A SET SPECIALLY MADE FOR THIS CAR, ALL THESE FEATURES TRUELY MAKE THIS A ONE OF A KIND SHOW STOPPER, I HAVE LOOKED EVERYWHERE BEFORE WE GOT STARTED ON THIS ONE TO FIND IDEAS ON WHAT TO DO TO IT TO BE DIFFERENT. SO AS FAR AS I HAVE SEEN NOONE HAS EVER DONE THIS TO ONE OF THESE CARS. WHOMEVER ENDS UP WITH THIS CAR WILL NEVER PASS ONE LIKE IT ON THE ROAD EVER. ONLY A FEW PEOPLE HAVE ACTUALLY SEEN THE CAR IN MY SHOP AND EVERYONE LOVES IT. MOST DON"T EVEN KNOW WHAT IT IS UNTIL I TELL THEM. I REALLY THINK CARROL SHELBY WOULD HAVE LOVED WHAT WE HAVE ACCOMPLISHED WITH THIS CAR. I NEVER PLANNED ON SELLING IT BUT THINGS HAPPEN IN LIFE THAT YOU NEVER SEE COMING, AS WITH MY SITUATION SO I HAVE TO PART WITH IT. I DID WANT TO MENTION IT DOES HAVE THE CONSOLE AND CLOCK WHICH ARE HARD TO FIND NOS MINT. CARPET IS NOS NEW FROM THE DAY. DASH IS AMAZING. ALL GLASS IS GREAT. FRONT BUCKETS ARE NEWER WITH RECLINE AND LOOK GREAT IN THE CAR AND SET AND FEEL NICE. REAR SEAT IS FACTORY ORIGIONAL.I AM GOING TO PUT THE BEST OF WHAT I THINK FOR PICTURES PEOPLE WILL WANT TO SEE. BUT I CAN ONLY PUT SO MANY WITH MY AUCTION. SO IF U WANT MORE JUST ASK AND I WILL EMAIL ANYONE AS MANY AS MAY BE NEEDED THE CAR WILL BE SOLD WITH NO RESERVE TO THE HIGHEST BIDDER, I TRUST THE CAR WILL BRING THE MONEY IT DESERVES. SO IT WILL BE SOLD AS IS TO THE HIGHEST BIDDER REGARDLESS OF PRICE. SO PLEASE THIS IS A SERIOUS AUCTION SO PLEASE MAKE SURE YOU HAVE THE FUNDS BEFOR YOU BID, IT DOES COST MONEY TO LIST AND I WANT TO BE FAIR TO ALL. I AM LISTING A 1978 KING COBRA AND LIFTED CHEVY TRUCK FOR MY BUDDY WHO PAINTED THE MUSTANG SO CHECK OUT MY OTHER AUCTIONS IF YOUR INTERESTED. HE ALSO RESTORED THE KING COBRA WHICH TURNED OUT AMAZING. IF YOU WANT TO SPEAK DIRECTLY TO ME FOR SPECIFICS ON THE MACH 1 FEEL FREE TO CALL ME AT 641-891-8205 MY NAME IS RANDY AND LOOK FORWARD TO TALKING TO ANYONE INTERESTED.
