1969 Ford Mustang Mach 1

This 1969 Ford Mustang Mach 1 is a genuine M-Code survivor with a documented history that speaks directly to the collector who values authenticity above all else. Built at the Dearborn Assembly Plant and delivered new to Thompson Ford of Cuyahoga Falls, Ohio, this Mach 1 accumulated just 40,000 miles between 1969 and 1987 before being carefully parked in a garage for the next 31 years. Rediscovered in 2018 and professionally recommissioned for the road, it still wears its original Gulfstream Aqua paint—complete with the honest chips, scratches, and dings that give a true survivor its earned, unrepeatable character. Beneath the hood sits the potent M-Code 351ci 4V backed by a smooth automatic, and remarkably, the car retains its original body, floor pans, interior, and drivetrain. For the enthusiast seeking rarity, provenance, and preserved originality, this is an exceptional opportunity to own a Mach 1 exactly as time intended it.
