Get help, lot of people willing to help

Cool car! I've got a friend who still has his 73 Mach 1, he's had it since 1978 when we were in high school! I remember how proud he was when he put his new Predator carburetor on it, which was state of the art at the time, it still has it on there today! It's the very same color blue as that one! Great video! Thanks for sharing!

351 Cleveland's were great engines and with a good cam and an aftermarket 4bbl intake manifold on the 2V engines they were fantastic street stompers with decent drag strip performance. For the most part the factory 4V engines realistically had heads that were overkill for street use or mild to moderate track use because their ports and valves were too big. A 351 CI engine can't realistically utilize ports and valves that are intended for an engine of 429 to 460 CI. A lot if people don't know the heads for the 351C 2V and 4V engines were actually way different from each other, and the 4V actually did have ports and valves that were the size of those on the 429--460 engines.

Bondo is only a few letters away from bondage (servitude or subjugation to a controlling person or force, in this case rust) Hopefully the new owner is a Ford fan and will spend the time to get this unit back onto the street. Thanks for the video Jamie.

I had a 71 Cougar XR7, 351C 2V FMX that was about one step away from the hedge row when I bought it and drove it for another 25K. Had as much rust as that Stang but no bondo. I had fun with it regardless of its obvious death trap status. Nothing flat out on an old rural two lane with the speedo needle bouncing from one side to the other. What I like and out those platforms, Mustang and Cougar, is the way they handle when everything is in harmony and heavier shocks and sway bars are employed. 351Cs always give me a warm fuzzy.

Nice video! My Dad has a 1973 Mustang Fastback that he ordered brand new. It sat for about 15 years and I got it running for him again about 7-8 yrs ago. This video got me all amped up about his car again as it is my next project after I get my project car done. It's a pretty rough/rusty MN car. Probably past the point of most people fixing it up...but we have some sentimental value for it.

Glad to see it running, good of Willard or Ben not attacking!

Its always a toss up between the 71 and 73. This mustang clearly says "EV MY ASS !"

That 351C is a very thirsty engine

The 2V 351C was listed as a 174 hp engine. In Australia, they figured that a Mopar Carter ThermoQuad 4bbl, and Duraspark with 8.9:1 compression was all you needed to match the 4V hydraulic lifter engines that made 300, 285 hp gross, or the CJ that made 280 hp gross, or 266 to 246 hp net. We AntipoDeans measured 216 hp net from 1976 to 1985. Nothing fixes insufficient carb CFM on a Ford like a nice big 318, 340 or 360 Carter ThermoQuad. America used it as a RPO on the 460 Lincoln Mark for 1974. Exactly the Same 216 hp result. Because....Carter ACF Knew Best. Until the EPA slugged them for poisoning the waterhole at North Grand Boulevard North St Louis.

We have to be brothers, I love the Demons and I am actively looking for one, and I am restoring a 1971 Mach 1 right now. A 71 Mustang 351C Sportsroof was my first car and a 1972 340 Demon was my second car.

The wife and I have brought home a 71 Mustang mach 1 351C C6 M code fastback that is in this kinda shape. We need to learn a lot, lol.

I've had three of those machines love them all. Better than a Corvette that I had. I think they're beautiful cars. The 71 I had add a 429 Cobra jet man it was fast

I had a similar issue with the FMX transmission in my 69 Mustang GT. Except R was forward and 1 was reverse. Needless to say, I now have a 4 speed in there.

oh. my first car and last ford i would ever buy, after 8 yrs in Michigan it was rotted through and through, i ended up dumping it in the woods outside of Detroit and filling it with a thousand rounds of 22- and 12-gauge buck shot, the 351 Cleveland was pretty stout but the rust of it was complete garbage.

I took a trip to Lopez Island in Washington to look at a 73 convertible in 2014 Little bit of quarter damage on the driver side where the wheel came off, but the deal breaker was interior repaint work without disassembly. Dash paint overspray on the buckets, and interior trim overspray on the rear seat, and an issue with the door panel carpet separating. From 10 feet the car looked amazing, but up close it wasn't a 25K car.

Someone offered me a Mach 1 in trade for my Cobra replica with a beautiful red paint job, and said it needed repairs to the floors. It was actually horrible (and to his credit - he knew what it was and sent many detailed pictures.) Just all terrible crust around the perimeter of the floor, frame boxes in the back were going. Not just scaley stuff, like, going to pieces and disintegrating. Trunk floor. It was very, very far from a $40k car… but same thing, it looked awesome.

Owned and enjoyed my 73 Cleveland convertible from 1987 to 2018

Had this transmission problem once before...I believe it turned out to be a stuck modulator valve...I could be wrong, it's been a many years ago.

When new, one needed two green lights to get across the road . . . NOT so with the '71

Ford had points in 74 too. I found that out when I started working on my 74 ranchero.. Don't know if it helps anybody. Just a neat factoid

I would raise the rear wheel on stands , change the fluid and let it run in reverse for a bit and get good and warm. Drive may come back to life. Worth a shot ?

im amazed that you had the luck that you do, lifter bleed down is a common problem with fords that sit for an extended period, my friends 71 fastback sat for a year, and we went to fire it back up and the pushrods bent due to lifters bleeding down. yet you can fire up a car after sitting 30 years with not so much as a spark plug change. i would never had started cranking on it until I knew I had oil pressure, but you seemed to have a "i dont care attitude"

@DeadDodgeGarage

Жыл бұрын

It’s important in life to know what one can get away with. Lifters bleed down in all kinds of engines - this causes clatter on startup. I don’t know what bent your friend’s pushrods, but I’m going to bet it wasn’t lifters which had bled off their oil - especially when one considers that every new hydraulic lifter engine that is started does so with lifters that have not ‘pumped up’ yet. I don’t know, I play with Chrysler engines. They only bend pushrods when they’ve been sitting in dirt floor barns since the 80s and the rocker arms are rusted solid, allegedly. The oil looked good, the engine turned fine by hand, so I cranked it with the starter and it sounded healthy and even. Yep, we’ve got a live one. If it had fired off and not built oil pressure immediately, I would have aborted mission. Of the many, many engines I have started which have sat for decades, the number which have not quickly made oil pressure on startup… is zero. And you know what? If they don’t make oil pressure when first started, either they didn’t make oil pressure when parked, or they were going to need to be opened up anyway. Why worry? We aren’t talking about Hemis or Cobrajets here. Anyway, I have indeed had annoyingly good luck with every one of the revivals I have done - except for that pesky flathead, which was reluctant to fire, despite having plenty of spark, fresh fuel and new plugs. A bit of oil down the cylinders to bandaid the tired rings did the trick. If you’re alleging that it actually ran a week, or a month, or a year, or ten years before I got my hands on it as opposed to thirty, well, I didn’t have my personal security detail guarding the car from the time I was two years old to now, so I certainly can’t make any guarantees. Old spark plugs spark just fine. And you know what else? I really don’t care.

Scrub your points! Sand paper or small file. You can test them with a screwdriver with the key on and the distributor cap off. Make sure the points are closed (may need to rotate engine slightly) and then open them with a screw driver. If you see a little spark in there, you’re good. You may need to replace points and condenser, or you could even have a bad coil. But cleaning the points will usually work.

Those were called the 'fat' Mustangs for a reason. ('71-'73). At least it has the Cleveland engine even though it's a 2 bbl. I will confess to owning some GM's but I've never owned a Ford and just can't get into them. My brother had a few, including a mid-late '70's LTD II (his wife's car) which had a dash that looked like it was from a video arcade game, kind of like that Mustang. Speedo, tach and gas gauge. Fords just have some weird engineering features, IE those huge underhood shock towers. A car buddy of mine that I worked with in the military had a nice 1970 Torino 429 Super Cobra Jet 4 speed he had since HS. I was helping him work on it in the base shop and the top of the gas tank was actually the trunk floor. You pulled the gas tank out through the trunk. Seemed a weird design to me. It was made that way.
