Vehicle Description
Powerful pony cars with bold looks are always in style. But with a
fire-breathing V8, five-speed manual, and an upgraded sports
suspension that's wrapped in the classic fastback style, this fully
restored and upgraded 1970 Ford Mustang Mach 1 is a true
heart-stopper.
If you want to attract attention, even at an all-Mustang gathering,
a car like this incredible Mach 1 is the perfect tool for the job.
The Crimson Red is borrowed from a much younger factory palette,
which perfectly represents this car's whole more modern attitude.
This coupe was taken down to bare metal during its rotisserie
restoration less than 3,000 miles ago, and everything was expertly
repaired before the new modern clearcoat paint was applied. So just
by the luster and shine of this new shade, people can tell there is
something special about this Mustang. And we know you love the
custom flame-kissed pony graphic on the fastback's profile. The
same goes for the large 18-inch Rushforth alloy wheels. But as much
as this has plenty of custom pieces, it is a real-deal Mach 1, and
so that means respecting its history. This coupe does it nicely
with correct aggressive pieces like the hood scoop, locking pins,
and special Mach 1 rocker panel moldings that are beautifully
finished.
Open the door to a full custom experience. Just like the paint, the
bucket seats are borrowed from a much younger Mustang, and so you
get proper pedigree while getting modern bolstering for all-day
comfort. And the way the red inserts in the leather coordinate with
the exterior paint instantly tells everyone this was quite a
thoughtful build. The Mach 1s were the premium Mustang, and that
gets taken into the modern era with updated wood trim on the dash
and an upgraded AM/FM/CD stereo with powerful Rockford Fosgate
subwoofer system. There's even ice-cold modern R134a air
conditioning. But more than just comfortable, this pony car was
upgraded to be a true performance machine. That's why you have the
three-spoke sports steering wheel mounted on a Flaming River tilt
column. Beyond that is a full set of AutoMeter Sport-Comp gauges,
including a large speedo and tach. And that last one goes
especially well with the Hurst shifter. And have you counted how
many gears are on that yet?
The moment you pop the hood, the presentation tells you this is
quite a powerful build. The darkness of the engine bay is broken up
by bright elements like the air topper and ridges on the valve
covers. Plus, the red elements on the wires and Optima battery
really add aggression. More than just look impressive, this 351
cubic-inch V8 was built for combat. The block was rebuilt with .30
bored over pistons and a balanced rotating assembly. It features
go-fast goodies like an Edelbrock four-barrel carburetor, Edelbrock
Performer intake, and MSD Ready-to-Run distributor. You have full
control over the car thanks to an upgrade to a new Tremec
five-speed manual transmission. When you look at the undercarriage
photos, they reveal more of the solid all-around investment in this
upgraded pony. The newer stainless dual exhaust, shocks, front
bushings, leaf spring, and thick front sway bar are all part of the
superior driving experience. Plus, the Baer four-wheel disc brakes
and grip of modern Hankook Ventus V12 tires completes this upgraded
total package.
This Mustang is vintage where you want it; custom in all the right
places; and upgraded to be the baddest Mach 1 on the road. Plus, it
comes with a ton of paperwork and a Marti report. It's a total
package that's turn-key ready to win you awards and keep you
searching for the long way home. Call today!!!
