Mrsozbilt's 69 Mach 1 freshen up

Post by ozbilt »

Carol's Mach is long overdue for a paint freshening. While we were living in California the clear coat started to lift off. So now we have been back in Australia for 14 years, it is possibly time for a repaint.

While it is pulled down, it will get an engine freshen up, automatic service (FMX) and go over the suspension.

Couple of mods will be a 1970 fuel tank (22 gallon) and A/C install.

Ozbilt works on one of his own cars - it can't be true!

If you need a hand with any of it, give me a shout.

All pulled down so I can "mechanically" remove the paint ......

Good time to fit A/C and not worry about scratching any new paint ....

Bit of a tight fit at the moment as I have 5 of Bosskraft's cars here ...

Not much has happened to the Mach, however this winter should see it in primer. Been real busy with community service obligations that have got "slightly" out of hand.

Now that I have successfully rebuilt the tractor engine (see https://mustangtech.com.au/Forums/viewt ... rt=15.html ) I feel I can tackle the rebuild on a 351W (they cannot be THAT different?)

I will throw up pictures as it happens.

That is Jada, a real bitch. Getting better after a few years of training (me, not her).
