Mustang Trinity

Photographed in August 2018 at Gosford Classic Cars, NSW, Australia

My Virtual Museum tour of Gosford Classic Cars had us take in several very nice Mustangs, which I thought we'd revisit today, in a bit more detail. See the link below for the Museum Tour.

Mustang #1 is this lovely Red Boss 351, built in 1971.

Mustangs were built between 1969 and 1978, making this a very early example.

And our third Mustang is another '69 Mach 1, in an Olive Green with Gold stripes. I really like this one.

The 428 Cubic Inch (7.0 Litre) V8 Cobrajet was the largest of 4 V8's you could have in a Mach 1 in 1969 - Others were a 351CI Cleveland, a 351CI Windsor, or a 390CI. The Ramair (as seen on the previous car) was an option on the 428.

The Mach 1 was dropped after 1969 because of poor sales.
