Well I made it home from looking at that 69 Mach 1. Let me say what a POS. That guy is nuts if he thinks he will sell that car for $14,000. When we got to his house first look at it I thought I would be leaving with that car. Was not bad looking from oh say 20 yards. Once I got looking at it I thought oh my god is this thing junk. The drivers seat had a rip in it about 9 inches long and back seat had a rip about 3 inches long. The both door panels where you grab them to close the door have tears in them and the carpet was worn badly. Had a rim blow steering wheel that was not in bad shape but the horn switch needs to be replaced. Both doors had bubbles on the bottom as did the left rear quarter. Under the car the floor pan was undercoated pretty heavy. So I started pushing on the floorboards and then I saw why it was undercoated so heavy. To hide the holes in the floor. Found holes in both front sides and one in the back. Checking under the hood the car shows it was hit in the front very hard at one time. The drivers side shock tower is pushed back and is touching the master cylinder. The master cylinder also shows signs of a leak. So we start the car up and it blew a cloud of smoke out. Could be valve seals but my guess is the valve guides are bad. Took the car for a ride and first thing I notice is the shifter is very sloppy. It drove ok but every bump you hit the car had more noises than you know.One thing I did notice was when I stepped on the brakes the clutch pedal would move alot. So I pulled over and checked under the dash to see if I could see what was wrong. It looks like the bushings on the pedal are shot and now is digging into the clutch pedal rod. Then I notice the harness under the dash looks to have been cut in half at one time and spliced back together with butt connectors. Brought the car back and the owner asks what I though. All the while I was checking the car over I was writing things down and the list was pretty big so I started telling him things that were wrong.He looks at me and says well I guess your not interested then. I told him no and I think he was really POed. I don't know if he thought I was that big of a sucker or what. So we start walking for our car and he says well make me an offer. I stopped and told him $4000 and he starts laughing. I turned and got in my car and left. At least the wife and I had a nice peaceful ride and stopped and had lunch together. She also commented how proud she was that I checked the car over so well and did not just jump at the first thing I see. So anyhow back to looking I go. One thing though I found out today is that I really like the lines on the 69 cars so I will be looking more for a 69 or 70 than anything else.
