Good luck with it, I bought a brand new ,'73, mach 1 when i was 19. It was great, also only $4.200, but that was alot for the time. Alot of good memories in that car. excobra boy

Congrats! Hey, you can unload your 97' at AUTOTRADER.COM.. It's only $40.00 to list!

There's a "free listing" service someone is advertising too, but it's not worth your time. There's only 2 cars listed, and they get like 11 hits a month from what I hear.

Well, I bought a new 1978 Z-28 Camaro (couldn't stomach a Mustang II) completely loaded - electric windows back then was the pinicle of luxury for a whopping $8995.95 - the dealer gave me $800 for my '69 Mach I with 351-C in trade (damned, I still kick myself in the ass everyday for that trade).

Ah, first new cars - the memories

So in the span of one week, you have bought a new Dodge SRT-10 truck, a new Kia Sorento, a new Chrysler Crossfire, and a new Mustang GT. Not bad for the 11th grade.

I hate to say it, but you are an amusing little guy. :-)

Can I get in line for some of that kicking action? What were you thinking?

He!!, everyone should have a story SOMETHING like that...

I sold my 57 BelAir 2dr HT -restorable- for 25 bucks, (no engine/trans) in

1. And even then, I knew someday I'd be sorry I did it.

Please quit trying to cut me down. I have nothing against you and if I have offended you than I'm sorry. For instance your username is a little rude.

Well... lessee....... My 56 tudor was bought for $25 and driven for about 6 months before I gave it away. Next came a 61 Falcon..... managed to blow up the 144 and dropped in a 260. Next came a 64.5 Mustang convertible. I added the pony seats (had the console already) and tossed the tranny. Figured I might fresh up the motor while I was doing the trans (apprentice mechanic, OK?). I started out with the 225 horse 289 and got carried away killing the transmission (C4) for a second and terminal time. Found a donor car and slammed in a top-loader. Paid $2200 for the car circa 1969 and sold it when the soon to be Mrs mechanic came along - happy to get $1000 for that bagged out POS.

In the ensuing years I bought and sold things like a 62 Impala 2dr ht, 63 Poncho Parisienne convertible, '68 Impala 2dr ht, 68 Malibu 2 dr ht, 72 XR7 convertible, 67 Fairlane 2 dr ht and a host of other extremely collectible cars simply because they were getting a bit long in the tooth. As you can guess, I got "old car" money at the point of sale rather than "collectible car" money. Ahhhh - to be young again.

The old timey car market is about pooched... the bondo queens are surfacing with alarming regularity and the unwary are buying them for way to much folding cash. I would have never imagined a smog turd as a desirable but, none-the-less, I can empathize.... As for the Mach I, you should have your peepee firmly spanked.
