Vehicle Description
In 1970 1,371 428 Super Cobra Jet, 4 speed Mach 1s were built. 182
of them were Medium Blue, eight of them had the 4.30 Detroit Locker
rear axle, and one of them had the convenience group. This is that
car. This Mach 1 R-code 428 SCJ comes with a fully framed Elite
Marti Auto Works Report. It was born a Mach 1 2-door Sport Roof
fastback in Medium Bright Blue Metallic with black Clarion knit and
Corinthian vinyl bucket seats. Options ordered included the 428ci
Super Cobra Jet engine, close-ratio 4-speed manual transmission,
Drag Pack, Detroit Locker differential with 4.30 locking axle and
Shaker hood. Other options include a black hood stripe, convenience
group, AM/FM stereo, tinted glass, deluxe seat belts and warning
light, tachometer, fold-down back seat, rear-window louvers and
rear spoiler. The car was originally delivered ahead of schedule to
Doug Bisbee Ford in Defiance, OH. This car was completely restored
approximately five years ago and was then acquired by its current
owner. It's been driven approximately 500-600 miles since then. The
car has always been garaged and lived most of its life in Southern
California. The engine was completely rebuilt by a NASCAR engine
builder when the car was restored approximately five years ago. The
factory locker rear locks as it turns, giving off a noticeable and
correct clicking sound. The car is straight and solid, and the
paint shows well. The undercarriage and engine bay are clean. The
interior is clean and the original clock functions as it should.
Performance modifications were added, including two aftermarket
gauges below the original AM/FM radio, a front brake line lock,
traction bars, subframe connectors, electric fuel pump, aluminum
intake manifold, electronic ignition, high-performance cooling
system and exhaust headers. This Mach 1 includes its original
invoice, seat belts, radiator and owner's manual.
