Candy Apple Red 1970 Mach 1 Mustang fastback owned by Paul Stein from Fergus Falls, Minnesota. This was our featured Attitude Of The Week for the week starting September 19, 2010. "This is the car I drove by on my way to work. I could not help loving it. She was owned at the time by an Auto Detailer in Bloomington, Minnesota. As luck would have it, one fall November day in 1982 as I was pulling into my previous employer Freeway Fords lot, there she sat in the used car row. Further investigation led me to find out that she was there for sale on consignment. Well as soon as I could, I went to visit its owner and inquired about the Stang. We came to an agreement that if it did not sell at Freeway, I could buy her for $2800. Well being the time of the year it was, she did not sell for Freeways asking price and the deal was made between its owner and I. It was not easy to put together the $2800 then but with help from Family, I was able to seal the deal after Thanksgiving 1982. I know little of its owner who originally put the car into the state it is in today. As you see it now is the way it looked when I purchased it. I do know it was painted its Candy Apple Red color while he was going to Auto Body class at Dunwoody in Mpls sometime in the late 70s. As you can see, the paint is holding up pretty well."

All the sheet metal is original although stripped and repainted three years ago in Dupont Jewel Blue to replicate the original color paint. The shaker hood and assembly is code correct and the Tony Branda Shelby padded rollbar is period correct. Interior is original (new door panels) with Rim Blow tilt steering, Shelby console gauge pod, and even data coded intermittent wipers. Rear LED sequential lights were added for safety and kool look. KMC hotwheel rims (17x8 in front, 17x9 in rear) round out the package with a 2-inch Shelby drop. Original Cleveland block, although the heads are new with a complete rebuild Dyno at 385 RWHP.

This is our featured Attitude Of The Week for the week starting May 30, 2016. This is a right-hand-drive Mustang! Charles tells us more, "I inherited this car from my Father in Law in 2003. He bought it brand new in 1970 from Godfrey Davis which was a Ford dealer in London. I believe it to be an original right hand drive built for export but have been unable to confirm this yet. I have a build tag which has lettering on it which says its a special build option car. My car does not appear to be a Rudspeed conversion so I would like to how it became a right hand drive. Was it built as a right hand drive for the UK market?"
