1969 Ford Mustang Mach 1 Super Cobra Jet

This well documented 1969 Mustang Mach 1 Super Cobra Jet is a special-order paint car with double R codes that has recently received a top-to-bottom, nut-and-bolt rotisserie restoration . The Mustang is a numbers-matching car with its original numbers-matching engine, transmission, and rear end. The unique color, Calypso Coral, was verified when the car was restored and stripped to bare metal. Ford data specialist, Kevin Marti, feels that this car is very likely the only 1969 428 SCJ Mach 1 painted Calypso Coral, because that color didn't become a factory option until mid-1969 on the Boss 302 Mustang. The Elite Marti Report notes that only 94 special-order paint cars were built with the 428 Super Cobra Jet and four-speed transmission. This rare Mustang Mach 1 was reportedly found in a Texas barn and restored who has added only 10 miles since the restoration was completed. - The Cobra Jet shaker hood scoop on this 1969 Mustang Mach 1 hints at something special underneath. Raising the hood doesn't disappoint, since the engine is a 428-cubic-inch Super Cobra Jet V8. The entire drivetrain received a complete rebuild,- the numbers-matching block with verified date codes was kept standard since the car was relatively low mileage. The LeMans rods, and the SCJ balancer and spacer are all present. The engine was upgraded with a hydraulic roller camshaft. The smog system is brand new, as is the correct alternator . All correct hoses and belts were used throughout the engine compartment. The seller continues, saying the Holley four-barrel carburetor, chrome valve covers, and restored radiator are all correct. The four-speed manual transmission was rebuilt/restored with new synchronizers, bearings, and blocker rings. The Drag Pak 3.91:1 rear end was rebuilt with new clutch packs, and all the correct factory markings were applied. The powertrain has 10 miles on it since being restored. The unique color, Calypso Coral, was verified when the car was stripped to bare metal. The paint is PPG Chromabase color and Chromabase clearcoat with four color coats and five clearcoats that were color sanded and polished to a mirror reflection . Panel gaps are nice and tight, factory-correct seam sealer was applied, and no detail was left untouched in the seller's opinion. The seller rates the paint condition as show-car paint. Correct spoilers and rear-window louvers were added during the restoration. All new tinted glass was installed with brand new seals - The factory bucket seats were restored with new foam, burlap, and upholstery . The door panels, dash pad, and headliner were also restored, as was the tachometer cluster. New carpet and underlayment were installed. The car has the fold-down rear seat. The trunk was restored with the correct jack, spare tire, and trunk mat. - The suspension was completely rebuilt with new factory Eaton springs, which explains the correct, slightly higher front stance to provide proper handling for the big-block engine.

The car has front disc brakes. This freshly restored, well documented 1969 Mustang Mach 1 Super Cobra Jet double R code is being sold because the seller's interests have changed.
