Unleashing Power: The Legacy of the 1969 Ford Mustang Mach 1 428 Cobra Jet Muscle Car

This 1969 Ford Mustang represents a Mach 1 Sportsroof model, equipped with a 428 Cobra Jet V8 engine. It was originally sold through Ken Moore Ford of Richardson, Texas, and later came into the possession of the current owner in 1989. Subsequently, a restoration project took place from 2007 to 2010. This undertaking reportedly encompassed a thorough engine overhaul, body stripping, replacement of the trunk floor, and application of a yellow exterior paint.

Among the added features are a three-speed automatic transmission, an MSD distributor, 15″ wheels reminiscent of the Magnum 500 style, power steering, power-assisted front disc brakes, a shaker hood, rear wing, rear window louvers, a Sport Deck folding rear seat, air conditioning, and a push-button radio. This specific Mach 1 is being presented for sale by the seller on the owner’s behalf. The vehicle is accompanied by a Deluxe Marti report and is accompanied by a clean title from Louisiana, registered under the owner’s name.

The car left the factory finished in Black Jade and is said to have been stripped prior to being repainted yellow during the refurbishment. Details include a rear wing, rear window louvers, quarter-panel scoops, chrome bumpers, and a black shaker hood with hood pins.

Chrome-finished 15″ Magnum 500-style steel wheels feature black insets and are mounted with 235/60 BFGoodrich Radial T/A tires. The car is equipped with power steering and power-assisted front disc brakes.

The high-back front bucket seats are upholstered in black vinyl with red accent stripes and are joined by a Sport Deck folding rear bench seat. Appointments include woodgrain trim on the dashboard, center console, and door panels as well as R134a air conditioning, a push-button radio, and Mach I badging. The seller states the trunk floor was replaced during the refurbishment.

The three-spoke steering wheel frames a 120-mph speedometer, a tachometer, supplementary gauges, and an aftermarket oil pressure gauge. The five-digit mechanical odometer shows 201 miles, and total mileage is unknown.

The 428ci V8 is equipped with a shaker-style hood scoop and an MSD distributor. Power is sent to the rear wheels via a C6 three-speed automatic transmission.
