1971 Mustang - Start Project

1971 Mach 1 Mustang restoration project in Competition Green. Its a long way from where she needs to be but we will take care of that.

All cars look good from 40 foot goes the story and this one is no exception. Big gaps at the door / fender and smaller gaps at the door / qter panel. Typical Ford inconsistency.

No major damage appears to be present on this Mustang although until it is stripped of all paint and coatings we really do not know the truth of condition.

Typical production car fit. Uneven gaps with hood too far forward. The edge molding trim is not even the same size/depth.

The Mustangs' Seats, dash pad, gauges all need redone.

Sun cracked even from Yankee land.

Steering wheel rim has shrunk and has pulled away where separated.

All needing resto.

The 1971 Mustangs' Glove box needs restoring too.

Door panels needing changed out.

Back seat also need restoration.

Orig 351 2V Cleveland getting booted as we plan to up grade the Mustang to a more muscular power plant including the suspension system.
