Streetside Classics - The Nation's Trusted Classic Car Consignment Dealer





Glance at the Mustang market and you'll see what's going on. Shelbys are already priced out-of-sight, the Boss 429s are right behind, and the Boss 302 is on its way to six-figure territory. That leaves the Mach 1 as the Next Big Thing in the Mustang world, so get a good one like this brilliant white 1970 Ford Mustang Mach 1 and enjoy your sportsroof while it appreciates. Restored as needed and looking especially racy, someone knew this Mach 1 would be worth more in stock condition rather than dressed up and retooled as someone's fantasy car. As a result, the searingly bright white paint was expertly mixed up and applied to the car's sheetmetal skin, albeit rendered in modern materials to give it a fantastic shine. It's got some very minor signs of use and age on it today, but there's nothing to complain about on this high-impact pony. The bodywork is quite good and you won't be ashamed to pull this one into the local cruise night, but it's not so nice that you'll be afraid to drive it which makes it a wonderful road machine. The correct Mach 1 hood with scoop, the hood pins, the subtle kick-up on the tail, and matching finned lower cladding all make the '70 Mustang Mach 1 one of the best-looking ponies ever built. Add in a correct stripe package, front and rear spoilers, and sport mirrors, and you get what is arguably the best-looking Mustang you can own. The interior was freshened using accurate reproductions of the Deluxe black vinyl seat covers in conjunction with original door panels. This is a very affordable Mach 1 that can only become more valuable as the years go on.





And it would be par for the course for the tweets to cost me money on the way down and cost me money on the way up as well. Can't say I have much love for this twitter crap in any sense, and I mean twitter as a whole. These past two days were so nice, as I had called BS on the earnings reactions with my wallet, and it paid off handsomely. I think Ford is a strong contender to be first to be completely wiped out by Tesla. Over 100% of Ford's valuation is the F-150. Autos have a lot of operating leverage so only a relatively small drop in revenues can quickly kill margins. A strong Pickup release from Tesla could very conceivably bankrupt Ford within 12 months of mass production. I want a model P but Tesla can not even come close to supplying enough pickup truck demand to really hurt Ford in the near term. It;s not going to be out for 2 years and supply will be slow for a while. I know Ford has nothing right now either. No, create an account now.

The 71-73 'Big Bodys' were the last of the Falcon based Mustangs; the first generation. Mach 1's Are a very rare car nowadays. The Mach 1 was the performance package, fitted with the 2.8 L V6 rated at 105 hp (78 kW). The 1974 Mach 1s outsold the previous 4 years with the V6 in the light for its size 2700 pound II. Next year the 302 was brought back into the Mustang, giving a much needed performance boost. At 140 hp (100 kW) and 240 lbf路ft (325 N路m) of torque, the MII was available with a 4 speed standard. It formed the top end of performance in the Mustang IIs. With 1976 came the introduction of another "performance" model, the Cobra II. In 1977 little changed but the grille of the Mustang and 1977 proved to be the lowest selling year of the Mach 1 yet, selling only 6,719 cars.





It is also worth noting that four of the five years of the Mustang II are on the top-ten list of most-sold Mustangs ever. Nothing changed for 1978 other than Ford adding yet another performance model to the lineup, the King Cobra. This became the final year for the Mustang II as well as their performance models. The Mach 1 name was discontinued. During the 1990s, the preeminent performance Mustang was the SVT Cobra. 2004 saw only minor cosmetic changes to the Mach 1. 2004 Mach 1s can be identified by bare aluminium finished valve covers, as opposed to the 2003's black finished covers. Outside, 2004 Mach 1's wear 40th anniversary tags ahead of the doors while the 2003 has the traditional Mustang Running Pony and Tri-Color bar. The lone interior change was the deletion of the overhead "cargo net" mounted on the headliner. Despite pre-production rumors, the horsepower and torque ratings were not increased in 2004. At 305 hp (228 kW) and 320 lbf路ft (430 N路m), many observers believed the motors to be underrated. 295-305 rwtrq (SAE). With a drivetrain loss of 15% this equates to 323-335 hp and 345-360 lbf路ft (465-490 N路m) of torque. Unlike many limited edition cars, 2003 Mach 1 owners had a variety of stand out colors from which to choose.





Separate names with a comma. So, they should have avoided the crossover segment? Now I wonder if that chart is by units, by revenue, or by profits? I also thought it was amusing that Ford referred to the Mach-E as an SUV in their presentation. But they also repeatedly referred to the Mustang as a "sports car" too, so鈥?Yeah. Anyhow, I can't prove it, but I think the crossover fad will run its course and fizzle out the way that station wagons and minivans did before. Station wagons might be even be due for a comeback. Now I wonder if that chart is by units, by revenue, or by profits? The bottom of the chart says market share. It seems to have come from U.S. There won鈥檛 be a way to 鈥渟witch it off鈥?as it鈥檚 a US safety mandate. Although your 鈥渟witch鈥?could come in the form of wire cutters.
