Jas’s 1972 Ford: PCH Drives with the Family

Shared by @Jaschandel. The timeline and plans reflect the owner’s original account.

Jas bought his 1972 Ford about two months before sharing this account. He wanted time cruising with his wife and their Pomeranians, and drives along the Pacific Coast Highway were the memory he chose.

It was a father-son project without upgrades yet. A 7.3 and what he described as an rs4 chassis were future plans. His exact description is retained below rather than expanded into a specification he did not give.
