1970 Ford Mustang

Description

This 1970 Ford Mustang is a well-done professional restoration that combines the ideal Sportsroof look with iconic color, proper 351 V8 power, and a terrific vintage style. So dig into all the details on this low mileage pristine and powerful pony.

This is one of those cars that impresses you in the details. The consignor owns a restoration shop, and this is a family car that was completed only about 1,200 ago. Wimbledon White is a legendary Mustang color, and the laser straight body is the perfect canvas to showcase the amazing shine of the paint. Plus, this has some great standout contrasting black details that you see on a Mach 1 package like the blackout hood, hood scoop, chin spoiler, rear window louvers, and full-width rear spoiler. And because the black looks so good against the white, this one goes further than a Mach 1 with added dark details on the trunk and rear panel. Of course, chrome bumpers also look great against the white paint, and all the stainless trim has been polished up to shine, too. Those competition-style American Racing Torq Thrust wheels really complete the look of a vintage speed machine.

We like all the black accenting on the outside, it's especially nice to see a well-done black interior. All the right stock pieces appear in place, from the center console, to the wood-like premium trim, to the Comfort-Weave bucket seats. This Mustang has been thoroughly restored, and the proof is in the workmanship that has gone into keeping this interior pristine. Even the fold-down rear seat looks and fits great. The details are thoughtful, like how the Philco AM radio now also has an FM setting. You'll spot a few well-integrated upgrades, and they are all about making this a better driver's machine. This includes the Bosch oil and temp gauges, grippy three-spoke sports steering wheel, and column-mounted Sun Super Tach.

The engine bay shows off more of this thoughtful restoration. Everything looks extra clean and tidy because it was built with professional care. You're looking at Ford's mighty 351 cubic-inch V8. This is not the original block to the car, but it was rebuilt using the original heads, intake, and exhaust manifold. It fires up eagerly and has a steady idle that's probably better then even when Ford made it new. This is a coupe built for enjoying on the road, and so you have a three-speed automatic transmission, power steering, power brakes w/discs up front, and a new limited-slip rear end with 3.00 gears. As you check out these features in the undercarriage photos, they show more of the care that went into the build with fresh components (like the dual exhaust) and even the proper red oxide paint.

The sale comes complete with build receipts and restoration photos. Rarely do you get a chance at such a well-done professional product, and so you know you need this one in your garage. Call now!
