That is a nice find Joe! A few minor cosmetic issues to resolve. The bumper is a no biggie, it can be stamped back out for not much $. The interior panels are going to be a PIA to find, but won't keep you from enjoying a drive in the Car.

Rev'n Kevin is right keep it stock, not many '71-'73 ponys out there. It is the internal shift kit I was refering to, to sharpen up the shifts between gears. FMX's are lazy, but durable. Nice to hear about your doors, they are a big issue on '71-'73's, wearing out the hinges, due to their size, and weight. If it is the stock carb go with a rebuild, from Pony Carbs. Check around the taillights for rust. They are held in place, to the sheetmetal, by a foam rubber gasket that retains mosture. I believe that the valve sets were hardened, anticipating the switch to unleaded fuel, so that should not be an issue.


Congratulations again!
