I almost had a 69 Mach 1. a freind had it from his dad, and he went off and joined the Army after high school. His dad owned an engine shop and planned on his son working there with him, was pissed at him for enlisting, so he offered to sell me the car for $2800. It had a built 351C. ran the 1/4 in 12.8 @ 114.
He changed his mind when I showed up with the cash.

I wish I had waited another year to get one, that extra 100hp and extra gear would sure be nice!!!




And just to ensure the OP doesn't stray:


The beach road (PCH) is about 20 min from my old place in Ventura. Used to cruise this exact stretch of road in Malibu!

3 cars that are as American as apple pie and will always be a part of history:

Corvette
Mustang
Camaro

A man is not complete unless he's owned at least one of those in his lifetime.

I am a Mustang guy, but I think I'd trade my Mach for a nice chrome bumper vert in a heartbeat.
