I was wondering the same thing, since that decision would probably have some impact on the Boss 302 project.

Well, if that's the case, I might be trading up sooner than I thought. ------------------ Frank S.----MCA Member 40390 '99 Mustang coupe '77 Ghia--"II Good" '76 Cobra--project

At the 25th at Atlanta I asked Scott Hoag about the Mach 1. He said, "It's almost certain it will be built, unless the ecomony dies"....(that not an extact quote but close). ------------------

Well, I'm bringing this to the top again.Any word lately? Wasn't it about this time last year when Ford started taking orders for the Bullitt? Or is the Mach 1 just gonna be later in the year? Wonderous... ------------------ Frank S.----MCA Member 40390 '99 Mustang coupe '77 Ghia--"II Good" '76 Cobra--project

In this month's Mustang Times, Team Mustang's Art Hyde answered some guy's question about if the new Mach 1 will be available as an automatic by saying the car won't be available for about a year. {Dec. '01, page 23}------------------

This from blueovalnews.com: Ford issued a part number for the 2003 Mustang Mach1's front coil springs. Also released were 17" x 8" 2003 Mustang rims described as a 5-spoke, machined aluminum finish with painted argent pockets. Sources have told BON that the Mach-1 is still targeted to use the 4.6L DOHC engine. 19 Dec 01. BON- Dearborn, MI.

This is good/bad news. Bad that we'd have to wait a little longer, but good because it gives me that much longer to save up. Hm. My V6 will be about halfway paid off by then... ------------------ Frank S.----MCA Member 40390 '99 Mustang coupe '77 Ghia--"II Good" '76 Cobra--project
