For Sale: 1970 Ford Mustang in Lutz, Florida

If you're searching for an outstanding representative of Ford's iconic Pony Car in its pivotal first-generation form, you need look no further than this 1970 Ford Mustang Convertible. This droptop classic makes a great first impression. It's wearing vibrant red paint that has a deep shine, and the accompanying collection of chrome presents nicely, with straight, unblemished bumpers at both ends and badging that remains in top condition. Up front, the grille and surrounding trim are clean, and the glass surrounding the cabin is clear and free from any road-bound damage. Not only does the featured shaker hood yield performance benefits, but it also looks sharp and really adds to this vintage Ford's curb appeal.

It's always a welcome sight to encounter a classic interior as clean as this one, while still retaining a largely factory appearance. Dressed in black vinyl, the front bucket seats are nice and fresh and feature high backs for plenty of support during longer journeys. They bracket a center console that features faux wood trim, a defining style element at the time this Mustang was introduced, that's matched by the instrument cluster just beyond the stock steering wheel. The dash area is free from any obvious warpage and harbors a collection of clear, easy-to-read gauges. An aftermarket Jensen AM/FM/Cassette sits at the center of the dash, blending perfectly with its surroundings. Unlike many droptops from its era, harsh weather won't necessarily confine this Pony to your garage. Its accompanying white convertible top is in fine shape and features a glass rear window for good visibility.

Raise the Shaker Hood and you'll find a 351 cubic-inch V8 standing by in the center of a well-maintained engine bay, surrounded by fresh hoses and properly routed wiring. It's equipped with both an Edelbrock intake manifold and a Holley 4-barrel carburetor to enhance its output, and pairs with a 3-speed automatic transmission that shifts smoothly to make up a drivetrain that will inspire confidence when you turn the key. The engine exhales into a pair of long tube headers that lead out to Turbo mufflers that provide just the right deep, but non-disruptive exhaust note. This first-generation Mustang is a nice driver. It starts right up, accelerates with no hesitation, and its power brakes, which feature discs up front, bring things to a stop without any fanfare.
