james the flame 11 Report post Posted November 1, 2008 Hey rodshop!!! Still working on mine. Should have it ready for nov.21 car show. Your car is a Mach 1 correct?? The one you are looking at is a plain fastback correct??? What drive train do each of them have??? 1969 fastbacks are always going to hold and go up in value. What kind of price are they asking??? Thanks again for your help on the paint on mine and by the way I believe my blackout hood turned out great!!! James the flame Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
mikem 13 Report post Posted November 1, 2008 If you have the room in your garage and the price is good, then this is a no brainer. I'm sure you've been down this road before so excuse the advise if it seems elementary. If you plan to restore or restomod this car, consider the cost. If its something you do not plan to sell in the near future, then cost probably isnt an issue. I bought mine in March of 2007 for $6k and put another $16k in it to present and i'm still not done. I did all the labor with the exception of the engine, trans and paint. I will have more money (not counting my time) invested than my car is worth but I dont care cause i love the car and the attention and appreciation it gets. Just make sure it is solid to begin with. I dont have to tell you about cowl leak repairs and other sheetmetal replacement being very expensive. From the photo, it looks very straight. Good luck with your decision.

SELLERSRODSHOP 13 Report post Posted July 2, 2009 well, after 9 months of indecision, the guy finally decided to sell it. i didn't have the extra funds, but turned a friend of a friend on to it & he bought it yesterday & brought it by the house last night & the thing is really solid! never wrecked, no rust worth mentioning. turned out to be a 351w car with a/c, fold down & console. i'm gonna try & get him joined up here when he gets time. i won't reveal the selling price, but guarantee it would make you sick!!
