A Classic: '69 Ford Mustang Mach 1---428 Cobra-Jet!


This beautiful '69 Mustang Mach 1 was purchased in December 2007 by Lazaro Carbajal, President of Dana Importers(www.danaimporters.com), importers of unique high-end wine and spirits.

When he bought it, the car had just gone through a complete frame off-restoration and complete # matching. The engine, the famous 428 Cobra-jet, also was numbers-matched.

The Mustang also has its original 3.50 traction-lock and the 4-speed top-loader transmission with the Hurst shifter. All of this was verified by the Marti Report.

  • Complete # matching ( all power train on vehicle is the original one that came with it, completely rebuilt, engine rear-end, trans. This adds value to classic cars ! ).
  • Complete frame-off restoration ( the whole frame was taken off the vehicle and everything was completely re-done from the chassis up. The under-side of the car was also new. Every nut and bolt on this vehicle was completely replaced. Restoration process took around 2 years).
  • Engine being numbers match ( this was the original engine that the car left the factory with in 1969. It was taken apart and completely overhauled ).
  • Marti report ( in the classic cars world this report is very valuable to have because it is obtained from the factory records verifying vehicle number and options that came originally with the car. Also exact production date and plant where the vehicle was produced. This also verifies that the VIN number on vehicle matches with everything).
