For Sale: 1969 Ford Mustang in Lutz, Florida

This 1969 Ford Mustang Mach 1 all dressed in green and black is one of the meanest-looking street machines of all times. Of course, it's only better when you get to take full control of this fastback's enhanced V8 thanks to four-on-the-floor.

This was the year of the performance pony. The 1969 Mustang had revised styling to maximize the intimidation, and it's also the debut year of the Mach 1 - a premium package that also added plenty of aggression. This one impresses with a high-quality respray of its factory-correct Black Jade. The dark green has a great glow in the sunshine, and the factory-correct blackout hood was a racing touch designed to reduce glare for the driver. Plus, the dark green really lets you see the golden Mach 1 side stripes and the halo highlighting the ducktail rear deck. This Mustang gets all the aggressive details right with the racing-style chin spoiler, hood scoop, competition-style American Racing Torq Thrust wheels, and quad exhaust tips. It's a total package for those who like striking and intimidating fastbacks.

The Mach 1 package was about being both sporty and premium. This feeling starts with the high-back bucket seats. They have the correct comfort-weave inserts, and we love how the aggressive red streak in the seatbacks coordinates with the floor mats. This upholstery combines with the door panels dash, carpet, and headliner to deliver a clean and well-done look in the fundamentals. It's the kind of details you can appreciate, right down to the working courtesy lights. Plus, with the wood-rimmed steering wheel and Hurst shifter poking out of the center console, you know this is a driver's Mustang. There's even a hood-mounted tach!

The engine bay has the clean look of proper pony car power. It's a well-done presentation with the bold blue block radiating from within the tidy darkness, and the long Mustang air grabber goes with the ribbed valve covers. This is Ford's mighty 351 cubic-inch V8, and it inhales deeply with a Holley four-barrel carburetor. And you're going to love the sound and power that comes from the long tube headers that feed an upgraded H-pipe dual exhaust. Best of all, you have complete control thanks to the four-speed manual transmission. Power steering, a thick front sway bar, wide modern tires, and front disc brakes all come together to give you a solid feeling on the road.

This is the kind of classic Mustang that makes people love a true performance pony. So if you want to be admired at the next car show, you need to call today for this Mach 1!
