Vehicle Description
The numbers-matching V8 and terrific paperwork already make this
1970 Ford Mustang Mach 1 quite desirable. But when you also see the
level of restoration everywhere from the sleek paint to the clean
undercarriage, you start to realize just how much of a total
package classic this one is.
This one makes a striking first impression. The receipts tell us
it's an easy 2000s restoration, and when you pay for quality, it
lasts. That's why the fit of the panels, the shine of the chrome,
and the vividness of the finish make you instantly attracted to
this coupe. And speaking of the paint, the Calypso Coral is a great
color that gives you the same boldness as some red, but a rarity
from only being offered on the Mustang for a few select years. So
finding a Code 1 (Calypso paint) Mach 1 is an interesting treasure.
More than just the right color, you love this because 1970 was a
single-year distinct design, and the sleek Mach 1 was the best
looking of them all. After all, it mixed the slick sports back
profile with beefy features, like the large air scoop, deep chin
spoiler, hood twist locks, optional rear window slats, and large
rear spoiler. Plus, the full hood stripe package and blacked-out
rear panel look great against the bold color.
We love it when the exterior accent color is a preview of the
interior color. All the right stock pieces are still in place,
including the plush carpeting, taut headliner, and plenty of smooth
wood-like trim. You'll also appreciate the details, like the
fold-down rear seats, AM radio for display, and working clock. And
it feels extra thoughtful in the way the lights under the dash and
in the sail panels greet you when you open the door. And the
high-back bucket seats, center console, and wood-rimmed steering
wheel remind you that the Mach 1 is a driver's car.
This is the numbers-matching block, but from the moment you open
the hood, you can tell there has been some nice work in the engine
bay. It has the crisp shine of a solid investment. And you'll like
the supporting components everywhere from the hood hinges to the
aluminum radiator. The 351 cubic-inch V8 inhales deeply through an
Edelbrock four-barrel carburetor and Edelbrock intake. it exhales
with authority as long tube headers feed the dual exhaust and
Flowmaster mufflers. While we know you're going to enjoy the power
and sound this Mach 1 makes, you'll also find it's quite an easy
driver. Features like the power steering, power brakes, front
discs, and a three-speed automatic transmission are great for any
time enjoyment.
This is a unique pony car, and so to make sure you can show it off
correctly the sale comes complete with the original dealer invoice,
owner's manual, build receipts, maintenance records, and the Marti
Report. It all makes for a classic that impresses for more than
just its shine. Call now!
