1969 FORD Mustang Mach 1

DOCUMENTED – RARE – MUSCLE CAR

428 R-Code - “Super” Cobra Jet

4-SPEED – W Code DRAG PACK 4:30 Traction Lok

Ford delivered on the promise of a rejuvenated, redesigned Mustang in 1969, offering a wide choice of engines and a brand new model, the Mach 1, which took over from the GT. Taking advantage of both the Boss 302’s handling and a total of five engines larger than the 302, the Mach 1 attracted over 72,000 new Mustang buyers.

The most powerful production engine was the R-code 428 Super Cobra Jet rated at 335 horsepower, which was automatically triggered by choosing the Drag Pack 3.90 or 4.30 rear end. Breathing through a new Shaker hood scoop, the SCJ propelled the new Mustang to 13-second quarter mile times.

This beautifully restored 1969 Mach 1 is a textbook example of one of the wildest Mustangs ever built. Dressed in its factory original and gorgeous Candyapple Red exterior paint with Gold side-piping and Black interior, it comes with a Deluxe Marti Report listing two codes that place this car higher on the ladder than almost all other Mustangs: the W-code 4.30 Drag Pack with Traction Loc, and the R-code 428/335 HP Super Cobra Jet V-8 stuffed with NASCAR-grade internals, with a Top-Loader 4-speed for maximum fun. WOW !

Matching Numbers Engine and Drive-Train. Professional Concours Restoration. Documented with the Deluxe Marti Report. This head turner was sold new in Cherryville, NC at Marvin S. Beam, Inc. on January 3, 1969. The car was actually built on December 13, 1968 – three days behind schedule. Only 2 changes from the factory conditions were made during restoration to improve drivability – first a Hurst shifter was installed along with a 3.50 rear gear.

This rare SCJ Drag Pack Mach 1 invites close inspection, revealing quality and attention to detail worthy of its value as a milestone Mustang.
