Vehicle Description
When you have a performance-built fuel-injected V8, five-speed
stick, custom suspension, custom A/C interior, and so much more
contained in an iconic 1970 Ford Mustang convertible, then this
restomod pony car is so unique it needs a proper nickname. Meet
Rockin' Horse.
The name Grabber Orange is appropriate because it snatches your
attention and doesn't let go. It's a legendary Ford color that
really makes enthusiasts pay attention. But more than iconic, the
color means you can really distinguish the black features like the
hood stripe, hood scoop, and blacked-out rear. Plus, that custom
rocker stripe has a cool airbrush fade and custom graphics proudly
displaying the Rockin' Horse special logo in the fender. And since
the black convertible top looks nice and crisp, this one of the few
convertibles that looks good even when buttoned-up to the world.
While the color package looks nice, don't forget to check out the
details, because there's a ton of them. All the brightwork is
shining: from the chrome bumpers to window trim. There are nicely
integrated pieces, like the Mach 1-style rear spoiler, clear
headlights, and turn signals on the back of the hood scoop. And
those Raceline alloys look particularly cool with the color-matched
inserts. So while the 1970 Mustang is already desirable because
it's a unique design year, this one proves it's truly distinct from
every angle.
Inside the color theme is reversed. You now have a full black
interior, and the Grabber Orange is used for vivid accenting on the
custom seat piping, door panel piping, and custom Rockin' Horse
logos embroidered within them. There's less than 2,200 miles on the
whole build, and so everything feels fresh and supple, right down
to the carpeting. This is built to be a true driver's machine, and
it starts with the seats. You have Corbeau Sport GT bucket seats
that have terrific bolstering and finished in a premium leather.
There are comfort features like an armrest center console, cup
holders, and a Flaming River tilt steering column. Plus, this gets
your enthusiast blood pumping with the grippy sports steering
wheel, performance shifter, and full AutoMeter gauge pack with
large speedo and tach. Power windows and a power convertible top
mean you never have to leave the driver's seat whenever you want a
wind-in-your-hair experience. Plus, cold-blowing R134a air
conditioning keeps you cool while looking cool behind the wheel.
And there's even an AM/FM/CD stereo with aux input and a full
custom subwoofer stereo system for the best in driving music. Of
course, the growl of the exhaust will always be your real favorite
soundtrack.
The custom presentation continues under the hood. The smooth
color-matched inner walls give you a bright engine bay where it's
easy to see all the upgrades, like the full bracing system,
upgraded pulleys, and large aluminum radiator w/electric fan. But
what you're really interested in is the monster in the middle. It's
a Ford 5.0-liter crate motor that has all the right go-fast
goodies, like GT40 aluminum heads, MSD distributor, Mallory coil,
and shorty headers feeding the rumbling dual exhaust. And the
Mass-Flo electronic fuel injection system not only adds to the
performance, but also it means this classic fires up as readily as
a modern Mustang. Because this is such a nicely upgraded
performance package, they also added a stout Tremec five-speed
manual transmission to give you firm control over it all. As you
look over the undercarriage photos, you're going to spot more great
upgrades, like the Ron Morris Performance tubular control arm front
suspension, QA1 and KYB shocks, and a stout Ford 9-inch rear end.
Plus, power steering, grippy Nitto NT555 tires, and four-wheel
power disc brakes with drilled & slotted rotors means this Rockin'
Horse is firmly in your command.
The sale comes complete with build receipts and restoration photos.
This is a one-of-kind custom convertible that turns heads and keeps
you all smiles. So don't miss your opportunity, call today!
