New owner in MO
Hey guys! I'm Jim from St Louis MO! I just want to say “Hi” and give you a quick look at my new Mach 1 project car. It’s a 2004 with 200K miles, MT, 2 owners, stock with some rust and it’s all mine. It has a blown-up engine…I have no idea what happened, but there’s a hole in the block and zero oil on the dipstick. I found a ‘03 Aviator engine with 107K miles that I’m going to use as the replacement. The only mods I have planned are a Supercharger (Procharger or Eaton), 18” black chrome Saleen or ‘04 Cobra wheels and a suspension drop.
Anyway, I look forward making some new friends, gaining some knowledge and skills. Hopefully I’ll get this guy cleaned up and on the road soon. Jim

Re: New owner in MO
Thanks for brining that up...I didn't realize there was big difference. The car will be a fun street car that will go to the track a few times a year. High 11's in the 1/4 should be good for now.

Re: New owner in MO
Nice find, looks like our Machs are starting to enter the 'barn finds' …. ugh, I am getting old. I threw up a little when I saw how dirty that engine bay was, can't wait for some progress and pics and congrats on the find!!!
Enjoy the build, looks fun for sure!

Re: New owner in MO
Thanks guys...I gave it a bath a few weeks ago and it looks like a different car...in a good way. I also found a sweet deal on a Eaton swap kit, 98 Cobra cams and some headers, so let the fun begin.
