1969 FORD MUSTANG

1969 is the year it really became a muscle car, instead of a pony car. In 1969 the Mustang got bigger, meaner, and more masculine looking than prior years. With 4 headlights, quarter panel accents and a wide stance the Mustang was ready to take on the Camaro, Chevelle and Nova that Chevy was putting out. You could now get a variety of different engines from an inline 6-cylinder on up to the tire destroying Boss 429. Most of these landed in the middle with a 302 or one of two 351 V8s. This example has a later model 302 from a Fox Body Mustang and is matched with a 5-speed manual. That combination makes this car peppy and a real treat to drive! Power steering allows you to maintain control with one hand while you slam through the gears with the other. The white convertible top drops with a push of a button for an open-air feel. The exterior is painted in a beautiful Turquoise with a with rocker stripe that ties nicely to the top color. Styled steel wheel simulators on on radial tires finish off the sporty exterior. Drive it like it is or add a Mach 1 hood scoop and spoiler to really take it to the next level! Under the hood is nicely detailed and shows well. The interior is done in black vinyl with an AM/FM/Cassette player added. Bucket front seats and seat belts look great and provide comfort to you and your passenger. The trunk is nicely finished off with a correct trunk mat, spare tire, tire iron and an amplifier. With the updated head unit, amplifier and extra speakers in the rear panels, this car has a nice little setup. This is a great car to drive and enjoy and take to local shows. It has good power and a great look! If you like Mustangs but want to stand out from the crowd, consider this 1969 convertible.
