I like! Whenever I get new rims I'll be going with GT3 rims for sure, I love 'em. Not sure I'd pay $29,000 for it, but it's a nice car.

If I remember right, I paid $23k for mine and it had like 23,000 miles on it....an extra $6K for all those goodies and super low miles isn't to bad...IMO at least.

I just figure that the engine (since taken apart and built up) has 9,300 miles on it...what about the suspension? How many miles does that have on it? How about the underside of the car, too? No pictures of that...It'd definitely be something I'd want to look over with a very fine comb before I would ever fork over $29,000

Yeah, that's what I was thinking...even with labor it should be a lot lower than that.

Very sweet Mach for sure. Saw him at a car show here in Tampa a couple months ago. Talked to the guy for like 20 minutes. Man, it was such a sick ride. If someone is looking for a modified Mach, that's definitely the one to get.

He's selling it to work on his next project. He bought back his old 68 Mustang and is going to restore it.

Heres a link for more pics/vids:

Lol, thats true. Appearance mods weren't his top priority though. The cobra skirts and mirrors were put on by the previous owner. The rims came on his wife's Cobra, he just put them on the Mach instead. All his money was invested in the performance category.

For sure. I'm thinking a full performance build shouldn't be much more the $15,000 max (but I could be way off with that number...it's just a guesstimate)

He's adding in the cost of the car too...

"The upgraded parts alone cost over $20,000 in addition to the car itself."

He is saying that in the overall car he has invested $42,000, not just in aftermarket modifications lol.

I know from experience building a 500hp and up car costs a lot of money. I dont doubt that he spent that much if all the work was done at a shop. Now if he did most of the work then I doubt he spent that much. I noticed that nothing has been done to the rear end or subframe. If anyone is thinking about going through a build like mine or the Mach on ebay it is more cost effective to buy someone elses project.
