hey there, I was working in central NJ last week when I noticed what looked like an old Mustang under a tarp next to the neighbor's house.(it actuaaly wasn't a 'barn find', but more of a 'driveway flowerpot' find) I went and peeked under the tarp and realized it was a Mach 1. Noone was home, so I left a note on the door. The owner called and said he was thinking of selling but wanted to check on the internet to see how much they are going for and he would call me back. I knew I would never get the car if he checked the recent auction results at Barrett Jackson or Kruse Auctions as he probably thought it was worth 100k.
I took a chance Yesterday and drove up there with cash in my pocket. The owner explained how many people had knocked and/or left notes on the car. The owner was reluctant to give me a price as he still hadnt checked the internet...he finally told me what he wanted which I would have gladly paid for the car, but I made a counteroffer just about half of his price figuring we would meet in the middle somewhere...after going in to consult his wife, he came out and agreed to accept my offer. I immediately called my buddy with a rollback and made the deal. I waited about an hour for the rollback to arrive and when we were loading the car, the owners son arrived home and was a bit upset..to say the least. I felt a little bad, but not bad enough to give the car back.
Anyway, i just picked up this 69 mach 1...69k miles...2nd owner...351-4-speed..sitting for years...the seller gave me the original owners name and address also...I will see if I can contact him also. Are there any websites that I can send my info...data in order to verify the originality, numbers, etc. thanks in advance for any help...

the moral of the story...they are still out there...just go with cash in hand!!!
