LMC is very proud to offer for sale this 1969 Ford Mustang Mach 1
With the introduction of the Cobra Jet 428 in 1968, Ford had a genuine muscle car in their stable with the Mustang. 1969 saw the introduction of a new model to help promote the new Cobra Jet engine outside of a Shelby, the Mach 1. Base engines started with their other new engine, the small block 351, next was the venerable 390 engine and then the top of the line 428 Cobra Jet now with Ram Air in the form of a shaker hood scoop. With special striping, a blacked-out hood and the new for ’69 styling they were an aggressive car with performance to back up that image.
This 1969 Mustang Mach 1 presents itself today just as it did when it rolled off the Dearborn assembly line on April 15th, 1969. It was sold new at Herb Stein Ford in North Jackson, Ohio on April 25th, 1969. Finished in Black Jade paint it goes well with the blacked-out theme of the Mach 1. Further setting apart the dark shade of paint is the Black knit vinyl high back bucket seats with center console. Of course, powering this beautiful Mach 1 is a 428 Cobra Jet “R” code Ram air with four speed transmission sending the power to a 3.50 traction-lok differential. A good inspection of the car reveals one that has been nicely restored work to keep the paint gleaming while being very well maintained as a car which has been driven and enjoyed and diligently maintained.
Of course, the car is also fully documented with an Elite report from Marti Auto Works. This Mach 1 has a terrific look with the Black Jade paint off set by the black interior making it an excellent car to be driven, loved and enjoyed for many years to come.

About Ford
Ford, founded in 1902, has arguably changed the history of automotive world more than any other car manufacturer by introducing the first people's car Model T in 1908. They had produced more than 15 million cars by the end of the production in 1927, by which T had become obsolete.Ford launched the first low priced V8 engine powered car in 1932. 1932 V8 was an instant hit with superior handling and performance to many far more expansive cars of the day. No wonder 32 V8 Ford has become such a favourite among hot rodders around the world with 32 Deuce coupe as their icon.
During the war Ford completely shut down civilian vehicle production to dedicate all its resources to the Allied war efforts (1942-45) They used to build B-24 bombers, aircraft engines, jeeps, M-4 tanks, military trucks and Bren-gun carriers and more than 30,000 super-charged Rolls Royce Merlin V-12 engines for Mosquito and Lancaster bombers as well as P-51 Mustang fighters. After the war Ford cars in the USA got bigger and flashier along with their competitors. In the 60's Ford was back in the forefront again when introducing their commercial hit Mustang in 1964. Mustang was so popular the competition had to follow Ford's example and the ponycar phenomenon took over the US. Over the years the ponies grew some muscles until the oil crisis kill finally killed them off.
In the sixties Ford rushed into international motor sports scene with a fury. After unsuccessful Ferrari takeover, when Enzo Ferrari had cut the deal off with Henry Ford II making the latter absolutely boil with fury, Ford turned to Lola in UK to produce a Ferrari beating long distance racer after. The collaboration between Ford and Lola created the mighty Ford GT40 that absolutely beat Ferrari in Le Mans 24 numerous times.
In Europe, Ford introduced some of the most epic race and rally cars of the 60's based on humble family sedans; Cortina GT, Lotus Cortina, Escort Twin Cam, and Escort 1600RS with the iconic Cosworth BDA engines.
