With head-turning graphics and a healthy sounding, matching numbers
351 Cleveland engine, this 1970 Mach 1 is one of only 96 Twister
Special Mustangs produced. The legendary Twister special story
begins when American Raceways International requested 1970 Mustang
convertibles for use as pace cars and limited editions. Named after
the frequent Midwest tornadoes, the Mach 1 Twister Specials were
numbered consecutively. All were delivered in Grabber Orange paint
with a black interior, functional Shaker hood scoop, power steering
and power front disc brakes. Externally, the Twister specials were
identified by their black midlevel side stripes and ''tornado''
rear quarter panel decals. As Mach 1s, the Twister Specials were
top-of-the-line Mustangs SportsRoofs with grille-mounted fog
lights, aluminum lower rocker panels, black honeycomb rear panel,
Competition Suspension, 3.50 Traction-Lok differential and the Mach
1 deluxe bucket-seat interior with molded door panels, console,
wood-grain trim and 3-spoke Rim Blow steering wheel. This striking
Twister was once owned by Terry Fritz, creator of the Twister
Special and has graced the cover of the July 1989 issue of Mustang
Monthly. Extremely well detailed, this highly-original survivor is
believed to still be wearing its original paint and upholstery and
presents beautifully. Rarer than California's Mustang GT/CS or
Colorado's High Country Special, this Twister presents a rare
chance to acquire a highly desirable piece of histoy
