The Ford Mustang Mach 1 is a coupé with 2 doors and a front mounted engine which transmits its power through the rear wheels. The 5.8 litre engine is a naturally aspirated, overhead valve, 8 cylinder that produces 250 bhp (253 PS/186 kW) of power. A 4 speed manual transmission delivers the power to the driven wheels.

The ACC Pocket Price Guide gives a $64,000 valuation for a 428-equipped ’70 Mach 1 — a healthy bump over the $39,500 for a 351 car. The price guide reports a recent 7% increase and that looks correct, as five years ago the value ranged from $30k to $46k. The GAA sale is just a bit above the most recent sale of a ’70 428 in our Premium AYu4Jl.
