Built in October 1969 and delivered through the Denver, Colorado, District Sales Office, this 1970 Ford Mustang Mach 1 presents in fresh condition after a comprehensive rotisserie restoration. For 1969, the Mustang received its second restyling, much of it derived from the Mach 1 show car that toured the country in 1968. The new car was larger overall, yet 1.5 inches lower than before, emphasizing its already aggressive presence. The Mach 1 nameplate migrated from the concept car to a new model assigned to replace the GT as the highest-ranking performance Mustang, notwithstanding the limited-production Boss 302 and Boss 429 homologation specials. Based on the fastback SportsRoof, the Mach 1 featured special exterior touches by designer Larry Shinoda, the Deluxe Decor interior, Competition Suspension and a choice of performance drivelines. In addition to the new front styling treatment for all 1970 Mustangs, the 1970 Mach 1 sported a segmented hood stripe and complementary rear decklid stripe, a rear honeycomb insert, a unique front grille with driving lights, and fluted aluminum rocker panel inserts with large Mach 1 lettering. As before, the standard engine was the 351 CI 2V V-8, which in the case of this rotisserie-restored example has been upgraded with a 4-barrel carburetor on a Holley Dominator aluminum intake manifold and coupled with a C6 Cruise-O-Matic transmission. Complementing this Mach 1’s Competition Suspension package are power steering and brakes, as well as new BF Goodrich Radial T/A tires on optional Magnum 500 wheels. The color combination is a pleasing mixture of code-Q Medium Blue Metallic with black Mach 1 striping and blue Decor Group interior with white door panels and, unique to the Mach 1, code-W white knitted vinyl upholstery on the bucket seats. An exciting and rewarding performer, this Mach 1 is loaded with optional rear-window sport slats and a rear spoiler, tinted glass, twist hood locks, center console, a rim-blow steering wheel and a pushbutton AM radio.
