1969 Model Year Mach 1 Mustang
First generation Mustangs are always highly desirable classics, especially when they are in pristine order, and a special edition such as the Mach 1. The Mach 1 package first debuted in 1969 as a high performance add-on to the Mustang. This 1969 Ford Mustang Mach 1 has had an engine rebuild and some replacements done under the skin, including on the engine, and comes with just over 5,250 miles showing on the odometer.
The Mach 1 package added exterior enhancements to the already sharp looking first generation Mustang. Available only on the fastback body style, the Mach 1 package brought a matte black hood with pins, hood scoop, chrome gas cap, rear deck spoiler, revised wheels, and rear window louvres in matte black. All that is witnessed on this 1969 Ford Mustang Mach 1 that wears eye catching Competition Orange paintwork. The wheels are wrapped in suitably meaty and reportedly new BF Goodrich Radial T/A tires to complete the purposeful muscle car look. You’ve also got ample Mach 1 and 428 badges, alluding to what lies just beneath the scoop. The interior hosts an interplay of black and red and offers seating for up to four occupants. Like the exterior, this ‘Stang’s interior is in great condition, from the wood trim on the dash, to the clear gauge lenses. The radio cassette player appears to be a newer item that’s retro-styled, with the ventilation system controls just beneath. The trunk offers some luggage space alongside the spare wheel.
Let’s get to the most interesting part, which is what lies beneath the hood of this 1969 Ford Mustang Mach 1. The standard Mach 1 could be had with a 351ci V8, but options included the 390ci and 428ci Cobra Jet V8s. This car is blessed with the latter, a fire-breathing 428ci Cobra Jet V8 coupled to a three speed automatic transmission sending drive rearwards. With 335hp and 440lb-ft on tap, you can easily resurrect smoky burnouts Bandit-style. The engine has reportedly been rebuilt, and the seller also says that it’s received a new Holley carburetor, new radiator, and new battery. Matching with the refreshed powertrain, new brakes ensure that stopping power is up to par too.
First generation Ford Mustangs are some of the most popular first-time classic cars around. Think we’re mistaken? Well, based on the amount of them that we’ve shifted, we beg to differ. With well over 2.5 million first-gen ‘Stangs created, there’s definitely no shortage of them around. You’ve got six or eight-cylinder power, three alluring body styles to pick from, and manual or automatic transmissions. So, choosing a first-generation Mustang is really down to your specific tastes and desires. Today’s example is a 1970 Ford Mustang Convertible from Portland, Oregon. It’s got a 302ci V8 under the hood, paired with a 3-speed SelectShift automatic gearbox, and also rocks an aftermarket radio. So do let us know if you’d like to own this sub-36,000 mile pony.
At the 2003 North American Auto Show, Ford debuted a concept car that previewed what the next Mustang could be. The current at the time fourth generation was becoming a little long in the tooth and soft in the flesh, despite Ford trying to spice it up with variants such as the Cobra R. Then, two years later, the fifth generation dropped and…people lost their minds! Here was a Mustang that had fantastic retro-modern looks, a properly fierce face, and the powertrain mix to back it up. Sales skyrocketed, with over 160,000 being sold in the United States alone, for 2005! Sales did temper a little after the initial rush, but during its nine-year run, they never went below 70,000 units per year! Taking example of this 2008 Ford Mustang GT that’s available in Douglasville, Georgia, it’s not hard to see why. This particular car is a drop-top and comes with the potent all-new at the time, all-aluminum Modular V8 at the time. One key is included with the sale of this 106,654-mile car.
Ford’s association with Shelby and resultant Shelby Mustangs was resurrected in 2008, after a long hiatus. You see, Carroll Shelby saw the potential of the first generation Mustang way back in the Sixties and created a special line-up of Shelby Mustangs that were widely regarded as fine performance machines. After that, consecutive generations didn’t receive Shelby treatment until the fifth generation. We don’t know why the Mustang II, Fox Body or SN195 didn’t get the Shelby pampering, but that’s all in the past. Now, we have a machine that has indeed come from the stables of Shelby, a 2012 Ford Mustang Shelby GT500 Super Snake. This potent pony is up for grabs in St. Simons Island, Georgia, and reportedly packs 800 horsepower! It’s done only 12,000 miles and is said to be #33 of 200, with Shelby documentation included with the sale.

The Ford Model A of 1927 to 1931 was the follow-up to Ford’s famous Model T, that had revolutionized mobility across the world, as well as laid the foundations for many of the automotive industry’s assembly line and mass standardization practices. Many of those advances are still in use today. So, the Model A had a pretty lofty reputation to continue, and it admirably did so. Despite just five model years, over 4.8 million were made, across various body styles. The Model A also came with the standard pedal arrangement for manual transmission-equipped vehicles that we know today, unlike the Model T’s unconventional control layout. Today’s 1930 Ford Model A 5-Window Hot Rod is quite different from a regular Model T, though. Well, for starters it only has two pedals because this machine packs a 3-speed automatic gearbox. That’s not all, there’s a 350ci V8 under the hood, a custom paint job, and under 15,000 miles on the clock since this machine got an extensive do-over. If you’d like to acquire this funky hot rod, it’s currently sitting in Yorba Linda, California.
Ford’s Focus isn’t that popular in America. It’s more of a European hero in the compact car class, where roads are smaller, town centers are tighter and compact cars rule the roost. Here, the Focus would be considered almost too small for our larger-than-life tastes. But hang on, what about the hot variant of the Focus? Specifically, the RS? Now we’re talking, because this is a spicy turbocharged hot hatch with all-wheel drive and 350 horses to be delivered. In fact, the engine of the third generation Focus RS, which is where this 2016 Ford Focus RS for sale hails from, is directly derived from the EcoBoost unit in the sixth-generation Mustang! So if you’re interested, this 86,000-mile car is up for sale in Riverside, California. It’s a four-door, too, so family practicality is another of its strong selling points, in case you need to convince your significant other as to why this car should be in your garage or driveway.
