The Ford Mustang Mach 1 is a performance-oriented option package of
the Ford Mustang, originally introduced by Ford in August 1968 as a
package for the 1969 model year. The Mach 1 title adorned
performance oriented Mustang offerings until the original
retirement of the moniker in 1978.
As part of a Ford heritage program, the Mach 1 package returned in
2003 as a high performance version of the New Edge platform. Visual
connections to the 1969 model were integrated into the design to
pay homage to the original. This generation of the Mach 1 was
discontinued after the 2004 model year, with the introduction of
the fifth generation Mustang.
Ford first used the name "Mach 1" in its 1969 display of a concept
called the "Levacar Mach I" at the Ford Rotunda. This concept
vehicle used a cushion of air as propulsion on a circular dais. Due
to the Mach 1's success, the GT model was discontinued after 1969
following poor sales of 5,396 units versus the 72,458 sales for the
Mach 1. The Mustang would not wear the "GT" badge again until
1982.
The Mach 1 package was only available in the 'SportsRoof' body
style (previously known as the Fastback); never on the hardtop or
convertible. Many resto-mod visual conversions have since been
performed by owners and enthusiasts, but are not Mach 1's by VIN
code.
This beautiful 1970 Mustang is a true Mach 1 that has undergone a
complete rotisserie restoration with no expenses spared. The build
was fully documented and comes with a box full of receipts and
photo album of the build, as well as a hard drive containing all
pictures before, during and after the build.
