Another new guy in NY
Hi folks- I'm in northern Westchester County, NY which is just north of NYC. I'm currently building a Mach 1 I've had for years but just dragged from garage to garage until about 2 years ago when I got serious with it.
I love all kinds of cars and never went in for the "Ford rules, Chevy drools" nonsense, but 1969-70 Mach 1's/Bosses are my favorite musclecars. My number 2 car is probably a slammed 69 Camaro, very much along the lines of my friend VanZuuk1 who turned me on to this board. I think all the cars of this era have some redeeming quality of one kind or another, but they all need some serious updating. I don't go in for numbers-matching purposeful orange-peel stuff at all for this reason. Time marches on and it shouldn't be ignored.
Anyway, I'll try to post a picture of my shell in it's current state. I've had it long enough that most of the "before" shots are not digital... in fact, they were "before" the internet.

Welcome, I'll be following your progress. My buddy has a 68 Mustang coupe that I've been trying to convince him to get rid of the 6 cylinder and go the pro-touring route. I need pics and build info to convince him to make the change. Rod

Welcome to the site. Good to see another Westchester resident. I am in White Plains and Anthony's Blue camaro is beautiful. I have a pro-trans am 65 Mustang fastback, 1970 Boss 302 and 68 Shelby Convertible for my Fords. Go to many events locally, you should try Bear Mountain on Wednesday nites 700-1000 cars on perfect nights.
Trying to sort out my PT 65 GTO suspension.
