Back in the saddle again!! - 2003-04 Mach 1 Registry Owners Club

Stormin Norman · 04-12-2017, 08:48 PM

I lost my 04 comp orange Mach 1 last August in the flood of all floods in south
Louisiana. I finally replaced it with an 04 Torch Red.

Congrats!

I keep thinking of getting another Mach, but the fact its over 100hp down from the current GT keeps making me second guess it. I miss that car.

Car looks great, and I couldn't be happier for you.

Does regular full coverage insurance cover flood damage, or is it separate coverage like a house? Did you get any money out of your flooded Mach?

Awesome getting another one.
If I ever lost mine I'd be on the hunt. With the way things are going they're going to be rare one day. Just when the day comes is anyone's guess.

It is nice, I was only in Louisiana because of the military, so glad I'm not there anymore. I do miss the green grass, trees and my friends, but that's about it.

I have a red one and In certain light or shade conditions the two colors (red and orange ) can look the same...

XSELLR9 · 04-14-2017, 09:49 PM

Any pictures of either car? how was it loosing the CO? did they just come take it away on a flatbed?

Stormin Norman · 04-14-2017, 11:34 PM

Top photo is the orange car with the water line showing. And thats with the car on about 8 inches of bricks.
The bottom photo is the new Torch red car. And yep a flat bed hauled it away.

It was tough, I spent time researching the car the flew to Ohio and drove it back.
I only had the car for 2 years and put only about 1500 miles on it. I will drive the red one a little more. Trying to load some picts, having difficulty.[IMG]

Thats awful. I have a Comp orange cobra. Such a rare color. makes me so sad. I guess it will be parted out. The red one looks great.

Congratulations on your find. You probably feel now as if you never were without it. Enjoy!

The red looks awesome.
