2003 Mach 1 Driveway Photoshoot :)

[starnsey]

Car is more or less complete minus a few performance tweaks - it is driveable but I still have about 350 miles before the clutch is fully broken in. I'm also in need of an alignment and a tune with the new slot style MAF to try to finally get the thing to not stall.

That looks real sharp!

Car looks great, how long have you owned it for?

 

[Lambeau]

Well done Sir. Clean, 03/04 Cobra rear bumper/spoiler, dropped, FR500's… Yes, very well done Sir!

Super clean! I say the Terminator side skirts are the best thing you can do to the body of a New Edge, I hate the stock gt/v6 ones so much! Great Mach though, looks like it has an irs too?

Thanks everyone!

I've owned it for about 2 1/2 years now.

I also love the cobra side skirts. And yes, IRS with entire Full Tilt Boogie Racing treatment as well as full Maximum Motorsports tubular front end as well with delrin as well.

Your car is what i want mine to look like eventually. I really like the cobra bumpers. How did you get rid of the cobra in the back bumper or did you buy it that way? Beautiful car.

That's a badass Mach, the rear end shots are amazing.

What condition was the car in when you took ownership? Just curious how much you've done in the 2+ years, b/c if you did the majority, that's a shit ton of work to be proud of.

Unfortunately, the previous owner had that taken care of so I'm not sure what process he used. Either way, so far it's held up.

Horrible condition, even now after all this time I'm still finding stuff the previous owner ****ed up. I'm still working on getting this idling issue sorted out after all this time. It's been a huge lesson on what kind of car to NOT buy when your emotions get the best of you...

Here is how I picked it up:

I've replaced every single suspension component, fixed tons of half-assed wiring, have come across multiple stripped holes. Basically, I've been over every square inch of the car and have fixed at least one thing at every turn except for the short block and heads. This car was in good overall condition - but the previous owner seems to have been clueless on how to take care of it or do things properly. The car is now ten times nicer/better than it was before I bought it and it's only at 52,500 miles.

Seriously, one of the worst decisions I've ever made was getting rid of my 99 GT (seen in the background in the first picture) and getting this car...but I've come so far and spent so much time (and money of course) and have such little further to go to get it right that it's not quite worth it to me to cut my losses.
