Pretty good information to know! Thank you. I wish I had a picture of it with the vinyl. The car entered the family in 86 and it was already gone by then. I hadn't realized it was an early number. Thanks for the info.

I always assumed the fold down was standard on the Mach 1. Pretty cool to know that it was an option. Ha, I agree blue on black is pretty special!

Well, I just got my marti. I'm guessing it did not originally come with Ram Air but it all appears factory to me. I suppose at the time maybe it is something that could have easily been added a few years later. New or parts from a wrecked car. I'll post my Marti over on that forum if anyone is...

Thought I'd share my Marti since I just got it. Some of you have probably seen my post of my looking like a fool thinking I had a 351M. Although, I'm happy to look a fool knowing it's a 351C not an M. Anyway, my Marti is below. I always thought it was odd to not have the Mach 1 seats but it...

Yes, I had one of them that went bad (I don't recall how I knew). I still have the original one that went bad. I found something online about how to make a new one using two from another application or something. I know I had to take them apart. It's been years ago and I don't remember the...

I believe that's the case with mine. The car is a pain to move out of my garage but next time I have it out I'll remember to check it. I do remember this now that I see it mentioned.

To be fair I've never gotten on the hood while opening it up. Everything is there and hooked up. A mechanic that I took it to and asked if he could verify it was working told me everything is hooked up correctly and he saw no reason why it shouldn't work. I suppose I could throw a go-pro on it...

I'm near Louisville KY in Greenville IN.

Thank you I appreciate it! I just ordered a Marti report out of curiosity and I figured it would be nice to have anyway.

Thank you for the compliments and all of the information. I always wondered about the interior especially the seats. Never realized that about the headlight buckets before but good to know. Everyone has been very helpful. Overall this is certainly good news moving forward regardless of what I...

Thank you again and this is something to look into moving forward. Really appreciate it!

Well I guess that's on me but at least it makes sense now why those didn't fit. Appreciate all of the info here!

Thanks! I don't have the Marti but now that I know it has the original engine I may invest in one. As far as I'm aware it is the original scheme. However I've been wrong before lol

Well it could have been user error. I got them from Rockauto. I tried these two first: CLOYES 91138 CLOYES C3004K Then I ordered this one CLOYES C3009K for a 79 351 F100 since someone (not on this forum) suggested it might be an M motor. When that worked I assumed it must be a 351M. However...
