Concourse restored and documented 428 Cobra Jet with a 4-speed!
Restored to factory condition by a Mustang expert in 2018.
Documented with a deluxe Marti Report, original door tag and buck
tag. Truly an iconic piece of American muscle car history!
EXTERIOR: Dang this is a good looking car! The sleek fastback
design and it's decked out with a chin spoiler, racing mirrors,
reflective side stripe, and a blacked-out hood with Cobra Jet
scoop. The body is outstanding. It has original metal with factory
spotwelds. It's laser beam straight with no rust or damage.
Repainted its original Candy Apple Red and it looks like a piece of
glass. All the chrome and trim pieces are in excellent shape. All
the glass appears to be original, but the weather strips and seals
have been replaced. It's sitting on factory chrome 14" rims wrapped
in Goodyear Polyglass F70-14 reproduction tires with raised white
letters.
INTERIOR: Deluxe interior with high back clarion knit bucket seats,
molded door panels and a center console. It looks practically new.
Down on the floor is new carpet with the red sewn in mats. Above is
a new headliner and visors. In front of me is a new dash pad, the
knobs, bezels, heater controls and rim blow horn are in excellent
shape. The interior lights are also working. The optinal Am-Fm
stereo includes speakers in the door panels. It also optional
tachometer, both options are on the Marti Report. The best part is
the 4-speed!
ENGINE COMPARTMENT: This has the correct Q code 428 Cobra Jet
engine. They were factory rated at 335 horsepower but were actually
rated by the NHRA at 390! Correct rebuilt carburetor and
distributor. Concourse restored engine compartment and it's freshly
detailed. The chrome air cleaner and valve covers dress up the bay
nicely. Reproduction hoses and clamps. Properly secured Motorcraft
battery. The factory markings, stickers, and paper tags were
reapplied. All the metal surfaces are painted smooth. The bottom
side of the hood is complete with insulation. It features power
brakes with a brand-new booster plus. It is even complete with a
hard to find smog system. a rebuilt smog system as well.
TRUNK COMPARTMENT: Pristine metal all painted Candy Apple Red. It
has reproduction weatherstripping, trunk mat and decal. It also has
a polyglass tire for a spare on a restored rim. Complete jack
assembly is also properly installed.
UNDERSIDE: It's been completely restored and detailed to concourse
specs with the original assembly line markings. The Mach 1 comes
with a competition suspension which has been completely rebuilt.
The steering has been rebuilt too. Correct reproduction dual
exhaust with h-pipe, cross flow muffler and chrome tips. The fuel
system has been replaced. The brake system has been completely
redone, disc up front. Looking up at the motor It's spotless Ford
blue with a Motorcraft oil filter and the correct starter. Also has
the correct close ratio 4 speed manual transmission that looks
fresh. Rebuilt drive shaft goes back to the correct 9" rear end
with nodular iron housing. The floors are all crisp and clean metal
sprayed in the factory correct primer.
SERVICE: Our lead mechanic thoroughly inspected this car, and we
adjusted the idle, replaced the speedometer gear, tightened the
hood pins, and replaced the brake booster.
This is the one to have: a concourse restored factory red, factory
4-speed 428 Mach 1! Very few have the complete correct drive train
like this one. It's a documented investment grade car, but that
doesn't mean I wouldn't be out enjoying it!
I, Jay Grams, take pride in personally writing the descriptions for
virtually every car for about the last 30 years now. A significant
amount of effort goes into fact checking. What I am offering is my
professional impression of the vehicle. Our salesmen are happy to
assist with descriptions and making sure your questions are
answered. One great suggestion is letting us do a walk around video
that explains the car's condition in detail. **These cars are
displayed in a museum. If interested in a particular car, make an
appointment with a salesman to see that car. Without an appointment
there is an admission fee to enter the showroom. If you buy a car,
your admission will be refunded, and you will be given a 1 year
membership.
