    My dad had a '69 428 Cobra Jet Mach 1 and they changed out the motor to a 351 Cleveland and he traded it to my uncle for a 351 Ranchero...double 🤦🏻‍♂️🤦🏻‍♂️. BUT...my uncle just recently gave it to his grandson, for him and his other grandpa to work on together and is on the road now. Same stock black wheels, all restored stock interior and paint was redone, same dark green and black combo. Was gonna be my car my dad and I built back to 428, but he passed when I was 14 and never got the chance. Just thankful it's on the road and I get to enjoy it with family.

    Great video. These were the cars I grew up with and still love to this day. Gentleman I know bought a '69 Hemi Cuda new. Yellow, black interior, pistol-grip 4-speed, no badging or stripes, yellow steelies with the dog dish hubcaps. He's driven that car every day since he bought it from May when the snow is gone to October before it starts flying again. It's truly a daily driver and a real survivor. It's still the original paint. It's got the dings in the doors from parking lots, the scratches. It's super cool and it just hauls ass. Be safe and stay well.

    I'm curious. With a collection of this size that sits all the time like a model car in a case. How often do they take them out for a drive and serviced so they don't go to ruin and did you get to see their service area for these awesome cars? I'm sure some of these cars are no joke to maintain. This was a great tour Shawn and and thanks for taking us there. What a bitchen experience you got to have...!!! That 1969 302 Boss with the 351 Cleveland is what does it for me.

    The ‘71-72 Mustang fast backs weren’t just ugly. They were downright fugly. I owned a ‘70 Mach 1 in the early 70’s and I couldn’t believe Ford took the best looking Mustang ever (IMHO) in the ‘69-70 fast backs and 2 short years later released that ugly bloated pig. But in 3 more years Ford upped their ineptitude when they released the Mustang II.
