Re: Is the Mach your 1st Stang?

This is my 3rd mustang.
My first was a 64 1/2. Plain jane 170 ci 6 cyl. 3 speed on the floor and red just like my 2003 Mach 1. It was slow but a blast to drive.

My dad borrowed it one day and it got run over by a runaway cement truck in a parking lot.
Luckily my dad wasn't in it.

Mustang # 2 was a 69 Mach 1 maroon with gold stripes. It was beautiful. 351 W auto with white interior. Put on some Crager SS mags (cut me a break this was in 1970, OK)Man, I loved that car, unfortunately it tangled with the rear end of a 1964 valiant on the interstate one night and lost.

Fast forward to 2006 and now i have the 03 Mach TR 5sp. Bought it brand new. I love it too. But maybe absence makes the heart grow fonder, because that 69 Mach 1 is still my favorite. I know the specs say the 03 is faster, but it doesn't feel like it. Of course it has been over 30 years since it drove that 69. Oh well at least I'm driving a mach, right
