    snowbound

    HI
    hope i'm doing this correctly. let me know if not.
    i'd like to introduce myself.
    i live in Telluride, CO., have about 18" of the white stuff on the ground.
    i have a 1972 mach 1 that i bought last year. back in 72 i ordered one from the factory when is was 23 so you can tell how 'young' i am. had a used red 67 fastback that i traded in for the new 72. traded the 72 in for 79 bronco. i have a picture of me w/ the 67 in chicago. hindsite is great, isn't it?
    the 72 is in great condition, wimbledon white, matching numbers as far as i know. i added ram-air and dual exhaust, has a 351-2v. maybe the duals wasnt an option but i like the looks. i'm not much of a mechanic, but can bolt stuff together. repaired a rust hole on the inner apron. i cleaned up the car a lot. i get a lot of comments on it. i'll try and get a photo for you to see. won 3rd place in a car show up here.
    i also have a 2000 H-D FXDWG. love that too.
    i like camping, road trips, bowling, fly fishing, shooting, tequila, scotch, although i dont get to do a lot of that cause my business takes up a LOT of my time.
    i'm trying to sell the business (alarm company) and house here and retire (semi-retire), would like to move to AZ, maybe mesa, AJ or Queen Creek area. looking for a house on a acre or more with 2-5 car garage/shop, pool, RV parking. that would be great. i would need to replace the non-working air conditioning. original air still in the car. the mach 1 is in storage for the winter. i'm already missing driving and working on it.
    i would like to get a 67 FB again.
    sounds like you have a lotta fun down there w/ your cars. would love to join you.
    thanks,
    Mike

    Welcome to HPS Mike! I Have a 72' Coupe that I bought as a Senior in High School back in March of 77", so there are a few others who have been around Mustangs for more than a couple years.

    The 71 - 73 Mustangs are not appreciated as much as the 64 1/2-66's or 67'-68's but no one can despuite the are part of the the Mustang Heritage. keep us posted on your moving plans

    Welcome :). Just a FYI There are TONS of homes for sale EVERYWHERE in AZ right now. I know you will find a good deal anywhere. But if you are relocating to Mesa, Look up Extra Space Storage on Madero and if you need temp storage for your baby. I would love to have it here. Just ask Jacostang, He has stored here many times. We are here to make the transition an easy one, I can get you a deal here too as I am the manager :) And a pre-welcome to AZ. Look forward to seeing your baby soon :)

    Pictures are easy. If you have them on your computer then look for the attachment link ^ its the little paperclip. Then go to town :) hope this helps, Trisha 2009 Copperstate Mustang Club Secretary

    Once you click the paperclip it will bring up another screen, from there you upload them and then once done you can go back to the paperclip and insert all I do believe, or one at a time. Thats how you can get them in a post :)

    You can either post them to a reply so all can see or post them here http://www.highperformancestangs.com...rs.php/cat/500. If you have a question on any sizes or help with sizes rather you can go to a moderator, Burntire is the owner of the site, Jacostang can also help you out. There a couple more, but I dont remember them offhand. Hope this helps :)
