This 1970 Ford Mustang Mach 1 is exactly the right mix of original and updated. For example, the factory-installed 351 V8 is still under the hood, but now it's mated to a five-speed manual transmission for the best control. So as you look over all the great details from the original color to the A/C interior you soon see the best of everything in one irresistible package.Medium Lime Metallic is a great color for nostalgia. This factory-correct hue reminds you of those 1970s earthtones, but it also has a metallic element that gives this Mustang the attention-grabbing presence a muscly Mach 1 deserves. This is especially true on this one because it has extra luster from a modern professional respray. But even with the bright green, this one has a more sinister side. It starts up front with the chin spoiler, hood latches, hood scoop, and bold black stripe package with callouts built right in. It continues the length of the car with the black lower body moldings with correct Mach 1 badging. Plus, the back has the louvered rear window and big spoiler. And there's no missing those iconic Magnum 500 wheels that are correctly detailed, right down to the pony center caps.All the black accents on the exterior are a great preview for the deep, black interior. You've got all the right pieces that make you love these later first-generation Mustangs. This includes options like the Comfort-Weave bucket seats, AM/FM radio, and rim blow sports steering wheel. And this Mach 1 also has all the right premium touches, too. It has everything from wood paneling on the dash and center console, to the cold-blowing air conditioning. But as much as this feels like a premium classic, the moment you grab the Hurst shifter, you're going to be ready for a great modern upgrade.When you open the hood, this pony shows off plenty of blue with the correct color on the engine block, valve covers, and air cleaner. But more than just looking straight from the factory, this H-code 351 Windsor V8 is the original powerplant. And while the engine bay looks like a great museum piece, this pony car was meant to be driven. That's why you get an upgraded five-speed manual transmission. You'll love being able to reach up and grab the extra gear to really unleashed the V8's full performance. And with additional features like power steering, you know this is a great all-around driving classic.All the great originality for show, and some great upgrades to enhance the go... this is a thoughtful and attractive turn-key classic, and so you know it won't wait around for long.
