Vehicle Description
This one owner Dearborn, Michigan built 1973 Mach 1 is presented in
Gold Glow exterior and Medium Ginger vinyl interior. It has a 351ci
V8 that produced 177hp from the factory in 1973. Other options
include a 4 speed Automatic Transmission that puts power to the
road through an 275.1 axle ratio. 1973 brought the last year of the
'big' Mustang. It was to be replaced by a smaller, lighter breed,
therefore, most of the changes for '73 were merely cosmetic. A
large, square, chrome headlamp bezel appeared, as did chrome trim
around the tail lights. A color keyed Urethane front bumper
replaced the chrome units of the previous years. The front parking
lights were now placed vertically in the front grille. A new,
grained, black applique with bright trim was placed on the rear
body panel between the tail lights. This was replaced with a
honeycomb style on the Mustang Mach 1 and Mustang Grande models.
The 1973 Mustang convertible was to become the last Mustang
convertible for many years. There were a total of 134,867 Mustangs
produced in 1973.
