First off…I’d like to say I’ve been out of the racing loop for 10+ years. I’ve priced the car on advice from 2 friends who are still into racing. The price is ‘what they would expect to pay’ for the car and the included components. If it’s out of line and you’re interested…drop me a line xt

What you get is basically a complete car minus the motor. Back then I thought I had a transmission issue so I had it rebuild. It turns out I cracked the engine block and bent a few valves in my original motor. Pulled the motor with  
the intentions of replacing it…then life took over…and the car has been in storage ever since.

The rebuilt tranny has zero passes…it was brought up on the brake a couple of times…then the motor was pulled.

I owned the car from 1995 and raced it from about 95-99. Never had any issues of any kind with chassis related stuff. I had a buddy of mine talk me into putting a bigger cam in it that ended up breaking some motor parts (bent valves etc).

The car always went straight and was actually quite boring to drive. I have no recollection of short times as  
it’s been way to long. This is the old Inky Brothers (spelling?) Mustang

Kinda interesting…that movie is what sent me looking for a 71-72 Mach1…I think the movie used a 73 though. I ended up buying a 71 Mach1 while I was away for school in 1990 or possibly 91. A few years later this guy popped up locally and I had to have it. I still have them both.

In my 4-5 years of racing traveling the Northeast a bit…I’ve only ever seen one other 71-73 Mustang tube car at the track

I’ll drop Cougarspeed a PM…Thanks!

More pictures? I don’t really have room for another car but can pass the word. This is a fair asking price for the amount of chassis work done.

Back to the top…  
Had a few phone calls and got to talk to some pretty cool people. Seems the location of the car has been a deal killer…
