R Code | 32K Miles | 428 Shaker Hood | 4 Speed Manual | 3.50
Traction Lok | Deluxe Marti Report | Correct Drivetrain
This 1969 Ford Mustang Mach 1 was produced on April 15, 1969, and
initially delivered new to Herb Stein Ford of North Jackson, Ohio.
Power is provided by the correct 428ci Cobra Jet Ram-Air V8 mated
to the correct close-ratio four-speed manual transmission and a
correct Traction-Lok differential with 3.50:1 gearing. Finished
from the factory in Black Jade with Mach 1 graphics, the car is
equipped with a shaker hood, a front spoiler, rear wing, Magnum 500
wheels, woodgrain interior trim, and high-back bucket seats trimmed
in black knit vinyl. This Mach 1 is now offered with a Deluxe Marti
Report, manufacturers literature, and clean Michigan title.
The R-code 428ci Cobra Jet Ram-Air V8 was factory rated at 335
horsepower and sends power to the rear wheels via a close-ratio
four-speed manual transmission and a Traction-Lok differential with
3.5:1 gearing. A COMP Cams 218/218 hydraulic flat cam and lifter
kit was recently installed, along with a refurbishment of the
carburetor and rebuilding of the brakes. The block date is 8C18 -
September 18 1968 which is correct with the rest of the drivetrain
and many other components. The correct engine tag is still in place
on the intake manifold as well as the transmission and rear end!
High dollar items like the Holley 4279, Carter X fuel pump, Police
Interceptor Intake Manifold, Quick Steering Box Etc.
The high-back front bucket seats and rear bench are trimmed in
black vinyl upholstery with textured inserts, and the front
seatbacks have red accent stripes. The black loop carpets have red
heel pads, and further appointments include an analog clock, a
heater, and woodgrain trim on the dash, center console, and door
panels. Woodgrain trim adorns the rim-blow steering wheel as well
as the instrument cluster, which houses a 120-mph speedometer, an
8k-rpm tachometer, and a fuel-level gauge. The five-digit odometer
shows 32,601 miles which are believed to be original! The interior
is original aside from the carpet and headliner, a dash pad is in
place but its not glued to the factory dash.
This is certainty one for the purists! Paint body fit and finish
are top notch as well. For more information on this New Arrival
