There was a body change in either '71 or '72 and they made these beauties. The "Mach 1" always was the fastback body, but the back got really 'fast' in these later years. I've always thought these were the nastiest looking Fords ever made. With stock engines up to a (claimed) 375hp they backup up the tough looks too. The new Mach1 is nice but it doesn't have the appeal of the original. I like to see a faster fast back on it!

Great pics, Jack. The late '60s-early '70s Mustangs were something really special. Most kids nowadays don't have a clue that back then you could buy a car with 400hp, stock, for around 7-8 grand. And you could fix it yourself with just a few tools.

That '71-72 MACH 1 reminds me of something...remember this movie? It, and Bullitt have to be the two best Mustang Movies ever made.
