Offered for sale is a documented 1969 Ford Mustang Mach 1 equipped from the factory with the highly sought-after 428 Cobra Jet (Q-code) engine. According to the Marti Report, this car was originally built at Dearborn in July of 1969, finished in Silver Jade with a black interior, and optioned with a C6 automatic transmission and 4.30 Traction-Lok rear axle. This example is currently presented as a complete restoration project, disassembled and ready for the next owner to take in the right direction. The odometer reads 61,559 miles. At some point in the late 1990s, a previous owner began a restoration but stopped due to personal circumstances, and the car remained stored indoors for approximately 15 years. During that time, the car was refinished in a darker blue Mustang color, deviating from its original factory Silver Jade. The prior owner also performed floor repairs and added frame connectors; however, the workmanship is substandard and should be properly redone as part of a correct restoration. The drivetrain included with the car consists of a 428 engine (believed to be a 1970 casting, not verified) paired with a rebuilt C6 automatic transmission. The engine rotates freely by hand, though it has not been run. As with any project of this nature, buyers should assume mechanical recommissioning will be required. The car comes with a substantial collection of parts, including: - Ram Air cleaner assembly - Extra hood - two sets of exterior mirrors - Seats and interior door panels - Various additional components accumulated over time This is an opportunity to acquire a real-deal 428 Cobra Jet Mach 1 with documentation, offering a strong foundation for a correct restoration or restomod build. Cars with this pedigree and factory drivetrain combination remain highly collectible, and this project allows the next owner to build it to their exact standards. We encourage serious buyers to review the Marti Report, inspect the vehicle and included parts in person, and verify details important to their intended build. Vehicles of this caliber—especially documented big-block Mach 1s—continue to command strong interest, and this example represents an honest, transparent project with significant upside when restored proper At Windy City Motors, we offer financing and provide full service in house, including restoration, body work, and mechanical service.
