1969 FORD MUSTANG MACH 1

OWNERS NAME: Bruno and Yazmin Zayas

YEAR:1969

MAKE: Ford

MODEL: Mustang

SUB MODEL: Mach1

BRIEF MANUFACTURER DETAILS AND SIGNIFICANT HISTORY OF CAR: 

The 1969 Mustang body was completely redesigned and different from the previous years. The 1969 major restyling of the Mustang made it about 4 inches longer and shorter by 1.5 inches than the 1967/68 models. It was also heavier. The 1969 Mustang retained the 108″ wheelbase of the original ’64½’s

The 2+2 Fastback moniker was replaced with the new Sports Roof brand/model. To this day however, many of us “old- timers” still call all sloped back Mustangs Fastback. A version of the Sports Roof Mustang was the MACH1. Because of the significant differences, it was considered a different body style and given its own code number.

BRIEF STORY OF THIS PARTICULAR VEHICLE:

This vehicle was found in McPherson, Kansas. The seller purchased it from the family of the original owner who had it stored for over 47 years. 25 of those years under “controlled environment.” What makes this particular mustang unique is the combination of the optional 390 4V producing 320 hp, factory, four speed close ratio transmission, factory A/C, and intermittent wiper option. It won MCA Bronze Concours Driven Class in 2023 at the Space Coast MCA Grand Nationals in Melbourne, FL.
