Vehicle Description
The 1969 Ford Mustang is arguably the best year for the
first-generation coupes. So when you take one of these sleek
machines, and give it a frame-off restoration with modern silver
paint, a bold red leather interior, and a powerful 460 big block
V8... you're looking at one of those rare turn-key classics that
has style AND substance.
The 1969 Mustang is often the sought-after design. It carries much
of the original icon's appearance, but many features are elongated
to give it a more muscular presence on the streets. This one
definitely goes for the meaner end of the pony car crowd as the
full-length dual black stripes coordinate very well with the
blacked-out grille and rear spoiler. Plus, the hood pins and hood
scoop are big hints at the power lurking underneath... but more on
that in a moment. The restoration on this coupe happened in 2014,
and that means the silver paint retains a terrific presence in the
sunshine. It highlights all the crisp angles in the sheetmetal.
Plus, it's a nice complementing color to the mirror-like the
bumpers and the complete trim. Finishing off this silver presence
is a set of modern 18-inch alloys that remind us of the Ford GT
supercar.
Inside, the investment in a quality restoration is instantly
apparent the moment you lay eyes on those red leather seats. This
sets off a well-coordinated package that includes new door panels
with red inserts and a new dash pad with custom red stitching. This
premium feeling continues on the center console with arm rest and
bright gear selector. But this car is more than a coddler, and you
know that from the moment you grab the sporty smaller diameter
steering wheel. And with those Dakota Digital gauges glowing red,
you can really tell this modified Mustang is out for blood.
Under the hood this V8 has a great black, red, and chrome
presentation seen throughout the rest of car. But more than look
clean and mean, those 460 callouts on the valve covers aren't
lying. The restoration budget included a excellent upgrade to
serious big block muscle. For most people a 460 cubic-inch V8 would
be plenty of power, but this one doesn't just stop there. It has
go-fast goodies like a Holley four-barrel carburetor, Weiand
intake, MSD ignition, aluminum radiator, and a header package that
not only adds power, but also contributes to the rumble of the dual
exhaust. Out on the road, this wild pony is easy to keep in control
thanks to a three-speed automatic transmission, power steering,
front disc brakes, an upgraded coilover rear suspension, and the
grip of modern Nitto Extreme ZR tires.
The build receipts will show you how much quality work went into
this custom Mustang. And so when you see the obtainable price, you
understand just how much of an outstanding deal this big V8 pony
is. But value like this never waits for long. Call now!
