Is there anything that says "American Muscle Car" more than the
classic Mustang? These cars are icons for the muscle car era and
even today are one of the most popular classics to own. This 71
Mustang is a true Mach 1 and is in excellent condition throughout.
It was originally Red but has been redone in Blue. All of the Mach
1 stripes and graphics were laid down as paint versus the vinyl
decals you see on a lot of this style of car. The stripes are under
the clear coat so everything has a nice smooth finish. The paint on
it is new so it has a really fresh look. The bumpers are new as
well and nicely chromed. If you prefer the painted look the car
does come with a painted to match front bumper. You see a lot of
these with the rear window vents which it comes with but they are
not currently installed. The ram air hood is original to the car as
it was ordered with the ram air option. It comes with a Marti
Report which confirms this information. The polished aluminum
Magnum 500 wheels look excellent on the car and are brand new as
are the tires.
Let's look at the numbers! The following is the door plate

It is powered by a 429 c.i. V8 motor that runs great and is paired
with a C6 automatic transmission. It has just received a new
battery, new shocks, new brakes, and new exhaust. In fact about
$5,200 was just spent on the car having a shop that specializes in
Mustang go completely through it repairing and replacing things as
needed. The car was factory ordered with power steering and power
front disc brakes which it still has. The car runs down the road
great and has lots of power. Just listening to the car you can tell
it is no slouch.
The interior in it is all brand new as well and done in Black. The
bucket seats up front look great and are separated by the factory
center console. All of the gauges, switches, and trim pieces on the
inside look good as well and everything works. The car comes with a
Marti report as well as some additional parts.
