1972 Ford Mustang Mach 1 Cobra Jet

Description

We're all on the hunt for something special, that's why enthusiasts know to pay attention when seeing a 1972 Ford Mustang Mach 1 Cobra Jet like this. It's a numbers-matching V8 coupe with four-on-the-floor and an A/C interior. In fact, the deeper you dig, the more you can understand how the restoration budget is a terrific mix of upgrades while still keeping an eye on history (even the 8-track still works!)

The paint on this gives this a great first impression. The modern Graphite Metallic is a distinctive look, and the terrific shine lets people know there was a solid investment in this coupe. The color was also the right choice, because it also complements the black used for the iconic Mach 1 hockey stick strip package. It also shows off more sporty details, like the Ram Air hood scoops, wide chin spoiler, rear window louvers, and the rear spoiler. The darkness is so well coordinated, they even used it for the optional smooth urethane front bumper. This was a quality restoration that went right down to the details, including the rubber seals and gaskets. Plus, there's the right hint of shine on the body trim, chrome rear bumper, and the iconic Magnum 500 wheels with pony center caps.

Inside is a highly correct interior where you can instantly tell they invested heavily to give it a time capsule-like presentation. That means the crisp door panels with w/wood-like inserts, a rim-blow steering wheel, a new dash, taut headliner, working courtesy lights, and high back bucket seats are complete down to the sporty stitch pattern. You'll even love the details, like the flat-folding rear seat and correct trunk mat. We especially love the stereo that gives you the classic AM/FM unit with working 8-track (and plenty of tapes that come with the sale, too!) But the speakers are a professionally upgraded setup that even includes powered subwoofers! The center console and Hurst shifter keep this a great driver's car, and the upgraded R134a air conditioning makes it an all-around enjoyable machine.

This is a rare 351 cubic-inch V8 Q-code Mustang. What makes the Q-code pony so important is this was part of the last gasp of the muscle car era, and so it's extra special to have the numbers-matching unit under the hood. It was rebuilt only about 7,000 miles ago to be quite accurate, right down to the functioning ram air hood. But as you look deeper, upgrades like the Edelbrock four-barrel carburetor, MSD coil, and long tube headers. It all helps to make sure this Q-code car is truly a hot pony. The V8 fires up with gusto, and you take full control with the four-speed manual transmission. There's a host of new components with the restoration, including ball joints, sway bar, control arms, wheel bearing, and other suspension pieces to keep this feeling solid on the road. Plus, you have power steering, new power brakes with discs up front, and wide BF Goodrich T/As.

This is the sleek and powerful pony with all the right investments. So you know it makes for a standout package that's irresistible. Call today!!!
