This Ford Mustang 1969-1973 got away, but there are more like it here.

This 1971 Ford Mustang Mach 1 was sold new through the Davenport, Iowa ordering district and is said to have spent time in Oklahoma prior to its purchase by the seller out of Colorado in 2018. It is powered by a 351ci V8 mated to a three-speed automatic transmission, and equipment includes dual hood scoops, full wheel covers, and air conditioning. An exterior color change and rebuild of the top-end of the engine were reportedly performed during prior ownership, while more recent work included the replacement of the battery, filters, and ignition components. This Mustang Mach 1 is now offered with a clean Nebraska title in the seller’s name.

The Sportsroof body was finished in Silver Blue Metallic from the factory, and it was repainted in its current shade of blue during prior ownership. The car features dual hood scoops, chrome bumpers, Mach 1 graphics, and dual exhaust outlets. The seller notes the presence of body filler as well as assorted blemishes and imperfections on the paint and glass. The trunk weatherstripping is missing, and photos in the gallery further depict the body, finish, and trim.

Painted 14″ steel wheels wear full covers and 225/70 Cooper Cobra white-letter tires mounted. A Magnum 500-style wheel fitted with an older tire is stored in the trunk.

The interior features factory blue vinyl-covered seats with ribbed inserts as well as re-dyed carpets and a blue dashboard pad fitted by the seller. Equipment includes air conditioning, manually operated windows, lap belts for the front and rear occupants, and an AM/FM 8-track radio that is inoperative. The headliner is missing, and the gear selector requires servicing according to the seller, who also notes splits on the seat upholstery, cracks on portions of the trim, and that the air-conditioning system has a leak.

The two-spoke steering wheel frames  a 120-mph speedometer, a fuel gauge, and a collection of warning lights. The five-digit odometer indicates 1,200 miles and has rolled over according to the seller. True mileage is unknown. The seller notes the fuel gauge is inaccurate and the dome light must be operated manually.

The H-code 351ci V8 was factory rated at 240 horsepower at 4,600 rpm and 355 lb-ft of torque at 2,600 rpm. The cylinder heads were rebuilt during previous ownership according to the seller, while more recent work included the replacement of the battery, filters, and ignition components. Power is sent to the rear wheels through a three-speed automatic transmission and a 3.00:1 standard differential.
