sup /o/, this post has two parts
A. Been really captivated by the looks of the Mach 1 recently. Do any anons know how reliable the car his, if it was shitty history with anything in particular, or if have any kind of experience with it what are your overall thoughts.
B. Hypothetically lets say I get one. I live in a town where there are a shit tonne of Lancers, WRXs, BRZs, Challengers, Camaros and shitboxes. What do I need to do in order to be able to out run AND out maneuver anything I come across. Even if I need to put in a different engine, I don't care. Just fill me in. One thing I definitely want to do is get a supercharger for it even if a turbo is a better option. Have never been a fan of any kind of lag let alone in fucking cars. (reason for part B. is because inferiority complex so need to have a bitter auto dick than everyone else)

They're good cars. They have the best drivetrain of the big 3 cars. The weakest point is the crappy power steering, but its easily remedied.
Get good tires and shocks and you can hang with most new cars. Whatever engine you have just get some modern heads for it and you'll be looking pretty good.

Excellent. Would this thing look dumb with a blower?

that's up to you. personally I'd use a centrifugal supercharger like a paxton or procharger. roots style ones that stick through the hood heat the intake air a lot. they are better used for drag racing imo.
also here's a good guide for chassis reinforcement and modification

Don't get a real Mach 1 if you plan to mod the shit out of it. You'll ruin the originality. Get a 1969-70 Mustang and make it a replica if you must. It'll be cheaper in the end anyway.
Modification wise you can get there things to compete with modern cars. You have to stiffen the chassis to high heaven. Talking torque boxes, strut bars front and back, maybe even a cage. Swap put the drivetrain to a Coyote or Aluminator, tremec transmission, 4.10 rear or 3.73 for more cruising.

I might just take you up on that. As much as I like the look of the Mach 1 to high fucking hell (especially pic related), I don't feel like committing automotive sacrilege

They're bigger and heavier than the previous generation. Ford tried to make them luxury cars.
