We put the car up on the lift today to get more information and answers to everyone's questions. The car was repainted circa late nineties, early 2000's, it does have a DOVE-A block, (429 SCJ, dated 5 months after this car was built), so not the original one that came with the car. The transmission is correct, cast iron tail shaft C6 automatic that was rebuilt previously, the carburetor is currently an Edelbrock and it runs much better than the oem Holley 780cfm, but a correct D1-- Holley 780 comes with the car, it has a D1AF-AH distributor, do not know if it is the original one, the radiator appears original, and the exhaust manifolds appear original. The Ram Air flappers work, however probably about as well as they did in 1971. It has a full size spare, that appears original. The tires appear to have been produced the fourth week of 1997. The lower control arms have the riveted on ball joints and appear original and the uppers are bolted on and appear original. The door weather stripping, window felts, and all interior appear original and in very good condition. All of the glass is stamped with the Carlite logo and is the correct tinted windows that the Marti Report and original invoice show came with the car. All body panels appear original to the car In summary; this appears to be a very nice and well documented 1971 429 SCJ Mach1 that has had 1 repaint and the bottom side detailed / cleaned up some. it has a correct 71 dated 429 CJ engine and a nicely detailed engine bay with mostly original / correct components. As with any 40+ year old car things have been changed and updated through out the cars life and we will due our best to give a honest evaluation of such things (if you need more info or have questions just ask and we will tell you). This car looks awesome, is well documented, may be one of the ultimate performance Mustangs of the Muscle car era, and was recently featured in Mustang Times as Donald Farr's driver for the Tulsa Mid America event, it has all the right options and is a honest and very rare muscle car to round out your collection. call Jerry Daniell for more info.
