1973 Ford Mustang Coupe review from North America
"This thing isn't no wusses car, it's a man's car!!! It's a pimpmobile"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
I am currently restoring the Mustang. The body is no good and neither is the interior. The motor was rebuilt 12 years ago, but they only put 500 miles on it since. It has a 4-speed with a Hurst shifter.
General comments?
This car has some serious power. She will probably do 130 mph at the least. She probably could peel rubber for 150 ft. I call it Eleanor. Please give some comments on what color I should paint it, yellow with black stripes or red with black stripes. Be serious please. Amazingly, I paid $1500 for it. The 351 is the biggest engine you could get in that car in 1973.
