1971 Ford Mustang - Fort Worth, TXStreetside ClassicsFort Worth, TX 76137Ph: 8558772707Web: www. With only a handful of 429 Cobra Jet Mustangs built that year, it's an A-list collectable that's an absolute blast to drive, just as it was more than 40 years ago. The writing was on the wall in 1971, but Ford engineers were still working at winning races on Sunday to sell cars on Monday. As a result, this stunning 1971 Mach 1 sportsroof was permitted to exist. Thanks to rare documentation including the original build sheet, it was easy enough to return it to as-built condition, including the stunning code D Grabber Yellow paint, which looks fantastic on the flatback Mustang. The blacked-out hood, tape stripes, and Mach 1 callouts on the flanks certainly leave no question about its performance aspiration, and with functional ram air, the big block delivered performance that could match its look. Of note, this was ordered with factory rear spoiler, which gives it an extremely aggressive look that works well with the front spoiler, creating one of the most aggressive-looking Mustangs ever. The black Clarion Knit interior was standard equipment in the Mach 1 and received the full treatment during the restoration. New seat covers, carpets, door panels, and a fresh dash pad were all installed to help insure trophy wins at every level. The gauges were rebuilt and feature crisp markings and clear lenses, with auxiliary gauges mounted in the center stack, although interestingly, a tachometer was not part of the package. The original AM/8-track radio remains in the dash, right above the HVAC controls (yes, working factory air in a 429 Mustang!) and Mach 1 badge on the console. The trunk is quite spacious, even with the spare and jack assembly in place. Ford wasn't giving up without a fight in 1971, and the thundering 429 Cobra Jet in this Mustang was the king of the hill. We also believe it is this car's original, numbers-matching drivetrain, so its pedigree is very strong. With an engine bay that's been detailed properly, it's just as impressive sitting still with the hood open as it is on the road. There's Ford Blue on the ram air air cleaner and block, correct finned valve covers, and reproduction decals throughout. The chassis is neatly finished and shows very little use since the restoration was completed. Tachometer✔ Power Windows✔ Air Conditioning
