1973 Ford Mustang review from North America
"The best and only car i'll ever have"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
The only things gone wrong with the car is the stuff the moron that owned it before me did to it. he sprayed rhino lining on the inside of every exterior part you can think of and even covered up rust with it. (under the hood) he mixed antifreeze with windshield washer fluid. took me about 3 hours to clean out. the guy painted it himself outside so there are plenty of uneven paint spots. he also clear coated it during a sand storm so the is sand under the clear coat. seats are worn because of age. the miles probably have rolled over.
General comments?
Amazing. After sitting under a tree for a year I think it's is pretty good when it drives all the way from arizona to texas. It is a candy apple red and that makes me question the original color of the car. I am fully restoring the car and eventually getting a new paint job. should I get it red again or a deep blue, or maybe even green or black? I'm thinking if I keep it red i'll get it all black interior with red seats. if I get it black I'm thinkin about gettin it the exact opposite. I will be showing the car so I need honest opinion. small back seat makes a comfy front seat so you can really stretch out ur legs and the bucket seats are the greatest feeling seats in the world.
