1970 Ford Mustang Description

This is a very rare 1970 428 Mach 1 "Q Code" originally equipped with Fords mighty 428 Cobra Jet Big Block engine and factory Hurst shifted top loader 4 speed. AZ and inland CA based car in outstanding cosmetic and mechanical condition with only 3 known owners, odometer shows 13,800 and actual mileage is believed to be 113,800. Was told by previous owner that engine is a 1970 428 CID FE big block that was a replacement to the original engine, the ID number stamped under the right head in the back of this engine is "0Z581600" which is a 1970 FE so date of engine matches car. This current engine was professionally rebuilt about 5000 miles ago with Elderbrock Aluminum heads, Edelbrock intake, Crower roller cam and roller rockers, Edelbrock 800 carb, Pertronix billet electronic distributor with MSD box, Lemans aluminum valve covers. With 10.5 to 1 compression this big block Mustang runs very strong on premium pump gas. 9 inch rear end with factory staggered shocks and a new True Trac limited slip carrier with 3.50-1 gears.
The following work and upgrading was recently completed in the last few months on this fantastic muscle car, have receipts and documentation for all parts and work.
1. Complete professional overhaul of the original top loader 4 speed transmission, original transmission to the car and has the correct ID tag, this is the optional close ratio top loader with the high performance large input and output shafts, this transmission shifts like new into all gears. Original Ford ID tag is stilled riveted to transmission which reads "RUG AEZ 014995" (Transmission is under warranty from overhaul shop)

3. New Modern Driveline hydraulic clutch conversion kit installed. This kit eliminates the obsolete Z-Bar manual clutch linkage and replaces it with a all new hydraulic system. This state of the art and race quality system vastly improves clutch action, feel and reduces pedal effort. (Hydraulic clutch system under warranty from manufacturer)

This 9 inch, 28 spline / big tube axle, staggered shock rear end is believed to be original to the car. This Mach 1 hooks up straight and pulls hard!
