There’s something to be said for the killer blend of classic and muscle styling found in a Mustang.
The ability to carve out a niche within an ultra-competitive, high-performance environment was Ford’s specialty in the 60’s and in 1969 Car Life magazine said the ’69 Ford Mustang Mach 1 was “the most magnificent and fastest Mustang of all time”. What motoring media baptized as the Mach 1 “drag pack”, in its ultimate guise the latest Mustang featured audacious new graphics, a shaker hood scoop, dual racing mirrors, deluxe interior trim, competition suspension, a locking differential, dual chrome exhaust tips, Goodyear Polyglas tires, a blacked-out hood, Sports Roof (fast back), aero-formed grille and last but not least a thumping great 355hp 7 litre 428-ci Cobra Jet engine package that launched the car from 0-100km/h in just 5.7 seconds and devoured the quarter mile in 13 white knuckle inducing seconds.Every stint behind the wheel of this beautiful beast is an event, there's never a dull moment driving a Mach 1.
Corresponding with its Marti Report, the car offered is a genuine 7 litre 428-ci Cobra Jet Mach 1, built in San Jose, February of 1969 and delivered to new California.
Optioned with Black Jade paintwork (a colour produced for just 1 year), Blackout hood, Black Clarion knit/vinyl hi-back bucket seats, power front disc brakes, power steering, AM radio, tinted glass and the close ratio 4 speed manual transmission this penultimate spec Mach 1 is amongst the most desirable Mustangs ever made.
Arriving on Australian shores in 2004 and recently released from long term ownership, this desirable car has been the subject of a masterful and sympathetic restoration.
Original features like the racing rear vision mirrors, period Goodyear Polyglas Tyres the iconic 428 Cobra Jet badging and the original Car-Lite glass still fitted to the car and excellently refurbished are all signs of a meticulously maintained car.
Inside, from top-to bottom the switch gear, gauge cluster, original radio, door cards with timber trim and carpets and seat covers have all been artfully restored to factory specification. Like a time-machine, sitting inside this car is like sitting in the “Performance Corner” of the LA Ford dealership in 1969.
Accompanying the car is the original Mach 1 brochure from 1969, the import documentation and the all-important Marti Report.
Detroit Muscle at its finest and most collectable with the performance sting to match, this vocal ’69 428 Cobra Jet Mach 1 Mustang is one of the finest we’ve ever seen. A viewing is a must, there isn’t another like it in the country.
