Offered for sale is my 1969 ford mustang 428 cobra jet Mach 1. This Mach 1 is equipped with the r code 428 cobra
jet engine backed by a close ratio toploader 4 speed transmission and a 3.50 traction lok 31 spline nodular rear
end. This is a nicely equipped car and is optioned with power disc brakes and power steering, tinted glass, factory
tach, fold down rear seat, visibility group and AM/FM cassette stereo radio. The car rides on 15 inch Magnum 500 wheels with BF Goodrich P215/65R15
T/A radials. The engine was represented by the previous owner to be the original factory installed unit. The block is not VIN
stamped which is typical with Metuchen built cars. The date stamped on the block reads 8J27 which corresponds to
the car's build date. Per previous owner statements the engine was rebuilt in the mid 1990's and retains its stock
bore and factory pistons. The engine is outfitted with a Holley 4150 750 cfm carb with manual choke and is retains
its original factory shaker assembly. The oil pump and fuel pump have been replaced as a preventive measure to
ensure reliability for long drives. The ignition has been upgraded to a MSD 6A electronic ignition with the module mounted out
of sight under the fender well to maintain a factory appearance. Original cast iron exhaust manifolds connect to an
original 2 1/4 inch H pipe which feeds into a 2 1/2 inch custom exhaust with correct rolled edge tips.
