This 1970 Ford Mustang Mach 1 is claimed to be a one owner car which has been in storage since 1988. After changing the oil and fuel, the car started right up. Unfortunately, there is quite a bit of rust in the floors and fenders, but nothing that can’t be repaired. It is located in Bartlett, Illinois and is listed here on eBay where bidding is at $8,500 with no reserve!

In the late sixties Ford wanted a Mustang with a sportier image than the GT, so they came up with the Mach 1. Using the SportRoof body, they added some visual effects and offered a couple of performance packages. Hood scoops, stripes, spoilers, and hood pins may not make you go faster, but they sure looked good.

To help back up that look, customers could chose from a 351, 390, or 428 V8. This particular car is equipped with the base 351, but it was still good for around 250 horsepower. One of the higher power offerings would have been nice, but they would have also raised the price of entry to this already expensive project.

The interior of the Mach 1 also received some special touches including bucket seats and yards of wood-grain applique. The photos provided make it hard to determine the condition of things inside, but from what we can see it does look complete and in fair shape. An in person inspection is a must anyway though because there is rust.

This poor pony must have been put away wet because the tin worm has started to eat away at the quarter panels. Luckily, new sheet metal is readily available from many sources. It going to need a lot of work, but if it were ours we would just focus on stopping that rust and making it safe to drive. How about you?
