Ford Mustang 351 Windsor V8 1969

Allmän beskrivning : HIGH-END RESTO, LOTS OF DOCS, REAL MACH 1, 351W/290HP, R134A AC, PWR DISC/STEER

Prepare to be impressed, because this 1969 Ford Mustang Mach 1 is not only a highly detailed show piece, but it also packs a stout matching-numbers 351 that'll make you forget all about its big block brothers. The unusual color is a big plus, too, so if you're looking to stand out on the street as well as the show field, this Mach 1 is definitely impressive.
Code C5 Black Jade is rather rare compared to many of the other Mustang hues available that year, but it gives this Mach 1 just the right combination of luxury and attitude. Actually, this one is mostly attitude, and with a blacked-out hood and matching scoop, not to mention the yellow Mach 1 stripes along its flanks, there's no mistaking this car's mission. It's also kind of nice to see one that's clean and smooth, so no wing, no slats, just that classic sportsroof profile. Treated to a no-expenses-spared restoration, the bodywork is extremely good, with even gaps, a deep shine, and body panels that are as crisp as the day they popped out of the stamping dies. The blacked-out hood treatment was correctly done, enveloping most of the hood, and the scoop proudly wears 351 badges suggesting that it would be unwise to tangle with this pony on the street. The grille, bumpers, and other shiny bits look fantastic against the dark green finish and if there's any criticism to be leveled against this car, it may be that it's simply too nice. I mean, I don't want to be the first guy to scratch it, do you?
The beautiful white interior remains pretty much the way Ford made it, from the ribbed "comfort weave" seat covers to the woodgrained dash appliques meant to impart a sense of luxury to the Mach 1. Thanks to the restoration work, things like those seat covers, the carpets, door panels, and headliner were freshened to look like new and the combination is extremely appealing. The gauges show crisp markings, bright needles, and clear lenses, so they've probably been to the restoration shop as well, and the center console with its T-handle shifter is practically mandatory on a sporting Mustang like this. An AM radio was part of the options list and it's still in place, and the factory A/C has been upgraded with modern components under the hood. The back seat folds down to make for an impressive amount of carrying capacity for a pony car, and the trunk itself is neatly finished with a reproduction mat that offers a correct pebble grain pattern.
The M-code 351 Windsor under the hood is light like a small block should be, making this Mach 1 a tidy handler as well as a great straight-line brawler. Fully rebuilt with receipts, it includes a Holley 4-barrel carburetor, dual exhaust, and factory-style hardware throughout, including the exhaust manifolds. Better yet, someone paid more than a fair amount of attention to the little things, including Ford Blue paint, correct hoses, proper fasteners, and a factory-style radiator, which all give the engine bay a rather authentic look. Underneath, the chassis is neatly finished with red oxide floors, a rumbling exhaust system with correct transverse muffler, and a stock suspension setup. Recent shocks, gas tank, and lines mean that nothing has been overlooked, and with 3.00 gears in the 9-inch rear end, it's comfortable just about anywhere. 14-inch styled steel wheels with 215/70/14 BFGoodrich radials give it the perfect performance look.
Nicely documented with a Marti Report and receipts, this Mach 1's new owner will have to decide whether he likes going fast or going to shows better. Actually, why not do both? Call today!

om Ford
Ford, som grundades 1902, har utan tvekan förändrat historien om bilvärlden mer än någon annan biltillverkare genom att införa de första folkbilen Modell T 1908. De hade producerat mer än 15 miljoner bilar i slutet av produktionen 1927, genom vilket T hade blivit föråldrade.

Ford lanserade den första lågpris V8-motor driven bil 1932. 1932 V8 var en omedelbar hit med överlägsen hantering och prestanda för många betydligt mer expansiva bilar av dagen. Inte undra på 32 V8 Ford har blivit en sådan favorit bland heta rodders runt om i världen med 32 Deuce Coupe som sin ikon.

Under kriget Ford helt stänga civil bilproduktionen att ägna alla sina resurser till de allierade krigsansträngningarna (1942-1945) De används för att bygga B-24 bombplan, flygmotorer, jeepar, M-4 stridsvagnar, militära lastbilar och Bren-gun bärare och mer än 30.000 super laddade Rolls Royce Merlin V-12 motorer till Mosquito och Lancaster bombplan samt P-51 Mustang fighters. Efter kriget Ford bilar i USA blev större och flashier tillsammans med sina konkurrenter. I 60: s Ford var tillbaka i förgrunden igen när man inför deras kommersiella hit Mustang 1964. Mustang var så populär tävlingen var tvungen att följa Fords exempel och ponycar fenomenet tog över USA. Under åren ponnyer växte några muskler tills oljekrisen döda äntligen dödat dem.

På sextiotalet rusade Ford i internationell motorsport scenen med en raseri. Efter misslyckade Ferrari övertagande, då Enzo Ferrari hade klippt affären av med Henry Ford II gör det senare absolut koka av vrede, vände Ford till Lola i Storbritannien för att producera en Ferrari slog långdistans racer efter. Samarbetet mellan Ford och Lola skapade den mäktiga Ford GT40 som absolut slog Ferrari i Le Mans 24 flera gånger.

I Europa införde Ford några av de mest episka race och rallybilar av 60-talet som bygger på ödmjuka familj sedaner; Cortina GT, Lotus Cortina, Escort Twin Cam, och Escort 1600RS med de ikoniska Cosworth BDA motorer.
