'69 Mach I R Code Restomod 9T02R157058
|
This factory Acapulco Blue / white interior Mach I has been given a high dose of horsepower with the installation of a '66 dated 427 Cross bolted side oiler block stroked out to 485 inches. Power is transmitted through a beefed up iron tail C6 automatic with custom modified torque converter, all the better as you should probably hold on with both hands when this thing cuts loose! Control is maintained by a modern rack and pinion steering system and four wheel power disc brakes. "Shaker" hood scoop, Boss 302 style headlight blackout, front spoiler, rear window louvers. Power rack and pinion steering and four wheel disc brakes, American 200S wheels on lowered suspension. Built in 2005.
See the attached write up for the extensive list of features. Professional build quality, with stunning paint and extraordinary attention to making the entire package perform harmoniously. It has a whole lot of attitude but will not beat you up when you drive it! Don't confuse this with amateur examples that are nothing more than a car with a lot of parts thrown at it.
Shown in its debut last month in my booth at the Atlantic City Classic Car Event, where it garnered a lot of attention. Although hunkered down on a lowered suspension, it maintains a largely stock appearance. This extends to beneath the hood, where the aluminum intake and heads have been disguised and painted Ford corporate Blue to look like an ordinary CJ.
