Hi. My name is Mike, and I suffer from this terrible affliction, Montego Madness. Many years ago, my first car was a 69 Montego MX that had been my father's and he bought it new in September 1969. I started driving it in 1975, through high school and first year of college, but alas, a bad heater care, lack of time and money, and rising fuel prices (yes, it was bad back then too) I traded it on a 3 year old Mustang II Ghia. Just about ever since, I have been watching for a decent Montego to buy. Then out of the blue, I found this one for sale on a website, not only was it in decent shape, it is a virtual clone of my first car! Same colors, almost the same options... Original MX had a 302, automatic, AC, PS, power disc brakes, AM radio, vinyl top... The diference is this one has a 351 windsor, and and non power 4 wheel drum brakes. This one is a California car, so rust is VERY minimal. Currently trying to work through some running issues... dies after a few minutes. Going to put a new fuel pump, coils, cap, rotor, points, and condensor on soon. Already rebuilt the carb. So, as work progresses, I'll update this site.
