New guy here!!!

Here are some pictures when I first took delivery of my 2003 Mach 1 back in September of 2014:

And here are some more recent ones from a couple of months ago:

Jumping the gun a little here since they aren't "technically" on the Mach yet (or even delivered)...buuuuuut:



I've was flirting with pulling the trigger on some CCW wheels for awhile now & a few weeks ago I sent an email to them to sort of just 'feel them out' & next thing I knew - I purchased a set of CCW wheels. haha


$3,800 later & I'm the owner of four brand new 3-piece CCW Classic forged wheels.


After talking to them about my specific setup - They recommended I go with 18x9's (w/ 6" backspacing) for the front & 18x11's (w/ 7.25" backspacing) for the rear.

I went with a satin black powdercoated center w/ a gloss black powdercoated shell. I'm having both the 'lip' portion as well as the barrel behind the face powdercoated that same gloss black (usually left 'raw'). I also opted for the polished ARP hardware (12-pt stainless) & for the centercaps - I went with the satin black setup with the CCW logo machined out and left aluminum.

I'm not exactly breaking any news on this next part - but I must say, the guys at CCW have great customer service & know mustangs very well. He asked very specific questions about my brake setup as well as other suspension & tire modifications. Top notch service for sure.

Here are some random internet pictures of what my setup will sort of look like:

Any pics w/ the CCW's installed?

Also, that was a nice low-mile Mach 1 find. What's the backstory on why such low miles?

Nice work w/ the mods so far!

Thanks for the compliments!

No pictures with the CCW's quite yet..they are scheduled to be delivered on Tuesday (the 8th).

As far as the car itself - I don't know a whole lot about it other than it was a Texas car of the vast majority of its life.

We can tell it was well taken care of by a true enthusiast once we noticed it was signed by Scott Hoag.

^^^^ Looking good SIC9250!!

Well, the CCW's arrived yesterday!

Minor issue with the parking brake cable - but it shouldn't be anything too crazy.

Here are some crappy pictures of the setup....My pictures don't do it much justice. I don't have a ton of extra room in the garage with all the boxes & parts - so it's about impossible to get a "zoomed out" type picture.

Should pop once outside & with the tires mounted once spring rolls around (and the 'upgrades' are completed well enough to drive it again). lol

I'm thinking of switching to chrome lug nuts...but not 100% sure yet.

Also, don't pay attention to the center cap on the front wheel - I had the wrong ones installed. lol

Anyway - onto some of my crappy pictures:

^^^^^ Nice OW. Love the stance in the bottom pic. What springs and wheels tires in that shot? Look like 18" Saleens.

Can u take some side shots that show the lip vs the fender. I plan to order 7.25" back spacing for my sra cobra, but it would be nice to see the actual fit bf I order.

Thanks for the comments =)

I've thought about black FR's but am still on the fence. As for the wider rear tires - damn it's hard to find a good rear tire that is both wide, grippy, and lasts longer than 6 months! Those tires are either 295's or 305's - can't remember which set that was. Currently have 295 NT05's on the car.

As for the tire shine - there actually was some but the photo editing removed it. But I also don't like shiny tires - i apply the shine pre-wash and then wash it off - I like the deep black look but not the shine. Rubber shouldn't be shiny IMO :beer:

One of my favorite machs I am picking one up soon , and started looking at different wheel options. Im thinking a solid gloss black FR500 but wish I could find some BBS rk's

Those are the nicest CCW's i've seen yet! I really dig the gloss black lip. I wouldn't change a thing... But then again, i'm a scrub. lol

Anyone seen this Mach 1?


it was originally in louisiana and then was in texas i think.

Ill attach a pic of it when I had it and then what it looked like after i got rid of it and the next owner got in a wreck i guess.

I might have to sell my powered by Ford coil divers and pick up a set of those Mach 1 ones. I have their website bookmarked but I've never seen any on a car until yours. They look pretty good.

Did you get them here?
