Vehicle Description
This 1969 Ford Mustang Mach I not only has an impressive appearance
that comes via its trademark Mach I features and vibrant color, but
it also arrives with an extensive folder of documentation,
including the original build sheet, restoration receipts and a
Marti-Report, to chronicle its reemergence into the smooth-running,
show-winning classic it is today.
A very sharp "Candy Apple Burgundy" paint job, applied by Hot Rods
& Custom Stuff in California using House of Kolor paint, stands in
place of the original Acapulco Blue shade it first left the factory
with. Plus, all those distinctive exterior Mach I features are in
fine form: the reflective striping along the sides remains clear
and sharp, the matte-black hood with its contoured scoop has been
revitalized, and the front air dam, rear windshield louvres and
rear spoilers all look great. Being an original California car has
its advantages as rust has never been an issue and it still retains
all its original steel. This Mustang's careful restoration has seen
it reassembled with obvious care, as both the front and rear
bumpers are table-level and blemish-free, the badging from front to
back is crisp, and its doors and hood open and shut very smoothly
and sit nice and flush, an obvious sign of good body alignment.
Look a little lower down on the sides and you'll see that the
rocker panels on both sides also meet up with the wheelhouses in
back just where they should. As an added modern touch that takes
nothing away from the authenticity of this Mach I's look, LEDs sit
in place of the original bulbs in those signature twin 3-bar
taillights.
The black vinyl interior has been brought back to life while still
maintaining its stock configuration in the process. The high-backed
bucket seats in front - a major stylistic departure from previous
models - look great with their tuck and roll surfaces and red
stripe detailing and are flanked by door panels sporting a deep
black hue, with fresh wood grain inserts in their centers. In the
matching dash area, an aftermarket tach mounted on the steering
column sits just in front the factory gauges in the stock
instrument cluster, with another pair residing at the front of the
center console. Well-suited to be a frequent driver, this Pony also
features air conditioning that's blowing cold and strong and a
Kenwood AM/FM/CD player with iPod connectivity has been added to
give you all the audio options you could want. The trunk area in
back has been looked after, too, as it's lined with Ford plaid
fabric, with a full-size spare sitting at the ready.
Producing right around 300 horsepower and equipped with a 4-barrel
carb, the original 351 Windsor remains in the engine bay. Paired
with an FMX Select Shift 3-speed automatic transmission, it's a
smooth performer that starts right up and runs strong while
emitting a nice deep tone out of its Magnaflow dual exhaust. Up
front, an aluminum radiator sits paired with dual electric fans to
keep temperatures in check in more challenging driving conditions.
With new springs in both front and back, as well as a host of other
new suspension parts, this Mustang has a smooth and
confidence-inspiring ride that, along with its power steering and
power brakes, reinforces the notion conveyed by its interior that
this is one Pony you'll want to drive any time you get the chance.
This iconic Ford classic sits on a set of 14" stock Mustang rims,
outfitted with Cooper Cobra radials.
