Here's a good one. No welding, and comes with a rack. Compare that to other companies.

that 1970 fastback is so cheap because the guy hacked it up. The tail light panel is modified, he has some funky scoops on the bottom to be functional, and the gas cap is on the sail panel. I mean if you like it go ahead and get it, but thats why it is inexpensive

ya i don't mind the mods to the body i think the back has a cool look to it, it also has ful roll cage( from what i can see) and it lets me have full freedom on drive train. I was wondering about the dif would it be a 9 inch or did they still use 8s in the 70s?

the mach 1's came with a 9" (mine has a 9) I can't be too sure if normal sportroofs came witha 8 or 9 inch, but if this is a mach 1 and he didn't toss the diff, it should have a 9"

I believe the 9 inch rear was installed in any car equipped with the 351W 2- barrel (H-code) or larger engine. This explains why all Mach's were equipped with the 9 and all others received the 8 inch rear. Cars equipped with the 428 received 31 spline axles, making them even more rugged.

its a 8 inch (i don't mind i think 8s are strong enough for me). cprstreetmachines that link looks pretty nice im deffinately going to consider them. The car im looking at right now has 13†cobra brake kit for the front The rear disc brakes are 11†saleen/svo anyone put these on or worked with this setup before?
