1972 Ford Mustang Mach 1 - H.O. Survivor

Eric Petosa's 18,000-Mile Mach 1 Provides A Glimpse Into How Ford Built R-Code Mustangs In 1972I think we can safely say that Eric Petosa is fanatical about originality, right down to stampings, date codes, and even the numbers on brake adjuster plugs. During the restoration of his Boss 302-powered '70 Cougar Eliminator, Eric conversed with experts and even traveled halfway across the country to visit Bob Perkins to track down parts and "Paint OK" stamps to correctly detail his Cougar to fresh-off-the-assembly-line new. Parts were bought and swapped via eBay while a Tupperware storage container became full of notes and documentation. The result is a gem that has been called the "Ultimate Eliminator" by the Cougar Club of America.
