This was our featured "Attitude Of The Week for the week starting March 21, 2010. Phil says, "I bought this car in 2000. Had a little body work to remove some rusted areas. I bought this car in 2001. Originally I wanted a red 1968 428 fastback (which are hard to find). I was ready to buy one in Ohio from a dealer but by the time I got there the car was already sold.





Two weeks later I found out about this Mach 1. I knew when I saw it on the showroom floor I wanted it. It was delivered two weeks later and I have been enjoying it ever since. This is an R-code 1969 Candy Apple Red 428CJ 4-speed shaker car. It has manual steering but it has power brakes which is needed - it is easy to spin this car sideways with the power it has. I am the third (told by seller) owner of this original 390, 4 speed car. It was repainted in 1993 in Rio Red - the color was picked by the last owner. The seller I purchased this car from never titled the car - it sat in a garage or barn for several years. Originally it was Candy Apple Red with a red interior, and had the black out hood paint. This is my father's pride and joy.





He purchased it new and has recently restored it to it's original grandeur. It has only 30,000 original miles. The only thing he lacks is the stripes and he is working on that now. The car has never been wrecked or rusted and never been painted with 31,000 original Arizona miles. He quit driving the car in 1977 after the last of 6 clutches blew up in the car and it had no more warranty. This Mustang was purchased out of Michigan about a year and half ago. I came with some additional touches making not quite stock. It has a Shelby roll bar installed, 1970 hood locks, and the roof emblems were removed giving it a cleaner look. I just purchased this 1969 Mustang 'R' code 428 Cobra Jet Ram Air 4-speed. It has 41071 original miles. The previous owners had it since it was less than a year old, almost a 'one owner' car. It is bone stock but had a paint/color change when it was a year old.





Ford wants to appeal to a younger customers that loves the latest technology while still engaging with traditional customers, which is the crux of the Mach-E proposition. It is an addition to the stable, not a substitution for the familiar two-door pony cars we know and love. And, it turns out, the current S550 platform is ill-suited to supporting an electrified powertrain. 鈥淚f we love the brand, we have to support the brand in its evolution and its growth, so electrification is going to enable that. Now the way you do that is really important,鈥?Pericak told us. 鈥淚f we would have taken Mustang and just literally replaced it with an electrified vehicle that has nothing to do with Mustang, it would鈥檝e been just swapping a badge and that would would鈥檝e been silly. That鈥檚 not what we did. We鈥檙e saying we鈥檒l love this icon. We鈥檒l protect the icon, and we鈥檒l continue to do that. 鈥淪o in a world where fuel economy and the regulations that are coming upon us from our government and everything else are really challenging,鈥?Pericak added. 鈥淚f you don鈥檛 have an offsetting product, it鈥檚 gonna be hard to keep building those big V8s that we all know and love because corporate compliance is a real thing. We have to comply, so a product like the Mach-E helps us put out a GT500. 60,000. Between those are Premium and California Route 1 editions, as well as a limited run of First Edition models. The mileage range varies from 230 to 300 miles, and AWD is optional on most of the models. 7,500 federal tax credit, which makes the proposition all the more tempting for those ready to make the leap to a performance EV.
