1969 Ford Mustang Mach 1 428 Cobra Jet

Description for Ford Mustang 1969

I purchased this mustang about 15 years ago in Niagara Falls. NY – it had around 43. 00 miles on the odometer. At that time. the car had been sitting and needed attention in order for it run properly. It had one repaint in the early 90’s and many of the engine components were chromed for “show”. The car was trailered to Wisconsin and gone through to make it road worthy. It was driven occasionally in the summer and received “mini” projects during the offseason. I finally decided to fix the oil leaks and make provisions for it to consume lead-free gas. The engine was pulled and sent out for a rebuild. This opportunity was also used to refresh the engine compartment and to make the car more ergonomic for the driver (more details below). This mini project was finished up a few years ago and I have enjoyed driving it ever since. Details DrivetrainEngine is rebuilt and has been driven for about 1500 miles. An aluminum PI intake paired with a factory Boss 302 service replacement carb has been used to upgrade the fuel intake system. This is all fed by a carter X fuel pump.
