The original Mach 1 was introduced as a concept car in 1968 in the form of a hatched fastback with aggressive hood and side scoops and a unique paint scheme. Three new Mustang models made it into production in 1969; Mach 1 included. It featured the familiar fastback body with simulated side scoops high on the quarter panel, an aggressively raked air dam on the front and a spoiler on the rear. As always, Ford supplied provisions for option hungry buyers. For 1970, the Mach 1 offered power from a 250-horsepower 351 V-8 up to a 335-hp 428 Cobra Jet mill. Sales of the fastback body style were brisk in 1970 with the popular Mach 1 and stable mate Boss 302. Offered here is a stunning Mach 1. It is finished in factory Grabber Blue with White Rhino/Corinthian Vinyl seats. It is equipped with a 351 Cleveland V-8 engine, automatic transmission, power steering, center console and AM radio. The quality of the restoration on this example is top level. The engine bay is concours quality and the paint and body is exemplary. No issues are noted with the chrome and bright work. Other features include rear window slats, trunk-mounted spoiler, Magnum 500 chrome wheels and Firehawk tires.
