What's this worth? Green 71 Mach 1 M-Code
Ok so my dad is looking at a different 71 mach 1 now, its got almost every option and seems to be taken care of (minus the paint being old and faded)
first here's a link to a bunch of pics, I don't want to post them here because it will make the page slow.
EDIT: link not so good, PICS posted at the bottom!!!!
Here's the decode
Warranty Number: 1F05M21000000
Year: 1 1971
Plant: F Dearborn, MI
Body Series: 05 SportsRoof, Mach 1
Engine: M 351 4v V8
Miscellaneous Vehicle Data
Body: 63R SportsRoof, Mach 1
Color:Z Grabber Green
Trim: 5A Black All Vinyl, Mach 1 Luxury
D.S.O:72 San Jose
Axle: 6 3.00:1, Conventional
Trans:U C6 Automatic
The options we see/know about is
The interior and undercarriage seems to be in the best shape, all the inside probably needs is a good clean and repainting the back panels. and maybe replacing the fold down carpet.
The engine bay needs to be cleaned up, but it is a 4V cleveland and apparently runs/drives well, which is good since the entry engine option for a 71 mach 1 is the 302.
the paint is obviously in need of repainting, chipped, cracked, and faded everywhere, but the original color is Grabber Green, thats pretty rare right? I'm just not sure if it's desirable...
Oh and it was sold in San Jose, CA so it seems to be a california car all its life because it has the blue plates on it still.
EDIT: Oh yeah and I think my dad said something about it only having like 78,000 miles on it or something, seems like it could be true...
Take a look at all the pics, tell me what you all think this car is worth AS IS, and what you think it COULD be worth haha
