The 1971 Ford Mustang Mach 1 2-Door SportsRoof is a quintessential muscle car that captures the spirit of American automotive prowess. This particular Mach 1 has been cherished by the same owner since 1972, a testament to its enduring appeal and the care it has received over the years. Its exterior is striking, finished in a vibrant Bright Red that commands attention, beautifully contrasted by a Black Vinyl interior that exudes a classic, yet aggressive, aesthetic. With just 70,000 miles on the odometer, this Mach 1 remains in remarkable condition, showcasing its well-preserved history.
At the heart of this Mach 1 lies the legendary 429ci Super Cobra Jet V8 engine, capable of producing an impressive 370 horsepower. This engine is paired with a 4-barrel carburetor and the highly sought-after Drag Pack, a performance package that elevates the Mustang's capabilities on the road and track. The power is managed through a 4-speed manual transmission, providing an engaging and visceral driving experience that connects the driver directly with the car's potent performance. The numbers-matching motor, transmission, and rear end further enhance the car's authenticity and value, making it a rare find among classic car enthusiasts.
The 3.91 Traction-Lok rear axle ensures that all the power generated by the 429 SCJ engine is effectively translated to the pavement, offering superior traction and stability during hard acceleration. This, combined with power steering and power front disc brakes, ensures that the Mach 1 not only goes fast but also handles and stops with confidence. An upgraded camshaft has been installed to enhance performance, yet the original cam is included, allowing purists to restore the engine to its factory specifications if desired.
One of the most significant aspects of this particular Mustang Mach 1 is its rarity. It is one of just 531 units equipped with the 429 Super Cobra Jet engine and Drag Pack, making it a highly collectible piece of automotive history. The combination of its original, numbers-matching components, low mileage, and exceptional care over the decades positions this car as a standout example among its peers.
Overall, this 1971 Ford Mustang Mach 1 is not just a car; it's a symbol of a bygone era when American muscle ruled the streets. Its powerful engine, iconic design, and well-documented history make it a dream car for collectors and enthusiasts alike. Whether admired at a car show or unleashed on the open road, this Mach 1 continues to embody the spirit of high-performance American engineering.

For our consignors, we are the only auto brokers that offer a Transparent Sale Disclosure. This means, when a car sells, we provide an exact copy of the Bill of Sale. We do this so our clients know exactly who bought their car, where it went, and most importantly how much we sold it for. No funny business.
For our buyers, our vehicles are listed on the Internet, with over 100 photos, including undercarriage pictures, and walk-around videos of the vehicles running plus a narrative-style write-up of the cars history and features. Our international exposure allows us to sell cars across the globe, and we sell a majority of them out of state and overseas. We deliver honesty and consistency in our photos and descriptions, a “no surprise” approach, so buyers, both near and far, can invest with confidence sight unseen. We are not a gallery. Vehicles can be seen locally by appointment as potential buyers are given our undivided attention.
