Cheers to everyone here ;D New member from Western NY. This looks like a great site. I'm the second owner of a 70 Mach 1 which I have owned since 9/73.
Its a 351C 4 speed car with shaker. Original and unrestored. Still sports the 70 Lime green paint job. Thats me and my son in the pic. I drove this car to California when he was only 2 weeks old. Road all the way there on the console. He's now 38. Any rate just wanted to say hi. ;D Oh thats my Boss 302 also.

Welcome! Some good looking cars there. I'm a big fan of both Grabber Green and Lime Gold even if my own '70 CJ Mach 1 is Med. Blue Metallic.

Thankx Cobrajet428, To be honest I hate Lime Green but I bought this car from a girl way back then and the car was what I wanted except for the color. But I love Grabber Green ! I worked at a Ford dealer in 69 & 70 and took care of moving all the hot cars inside at closing time. We had a Competition Orange Mach 1 just like this one on the lot that I was foaming at the mouth for. But at $80 a week pay I couldn't afford it. I found this one in the local newspaper when I came home from Vietnam 3 years later. Its still mine after all these years. :D
