I've searched for THE 1970 Mach 1 mustang my parents went on their first date in for almost 15 years. We had the paint restored back to the original colors and surprised my parents with it on Christmas day of 2019.

You can tell this car wasn't just some showcase pimp drive for him. It meant something to him and he remembers everything about it down to the engine bay. That's why he went straight for the hood and that's why he's old school. Guys back in the day weren't showing off, they truly knew everything about the car they drove.

it´s not the movies lol A) mach 1 with nitrous bottles are pointless, the muscle cars were too heavy for that, and B) muscle car are not very comfortable to steer, not easy like other cars. None of these cars had power steering back then, with nitrous in such a heavy car you´d lose control easily.
