- In this video we discuss what makes a Mustang Mach 1 a Mach 1. We let the owner show us how her ride sizes up versus the legendary 1969 Boss 429 Mustang.
We cover the details of this finely preserved 1969 Mustang Mach 1. Like the comfort weave front buckets , wood grain door panels, factory tach , lap timer (yes it had a factory lap timer). We take a look under the hood of this beauty and see the torquey 428 CJ in all its glory and ram air functional scoop. And yes we get to go drive the beast.
If you wanna skip to the good stuff - we test drive the Mach 1 at 4:25 in this epic video. And the chase scene is also saved for the end. Steve McQueen would have be proud.

My husband had a '70 Plymouth Roadrunner that had a 383HP in it with 335 horses (with an Air Grabber). It would kick the snot out of these cars! And my Boobs are bigger than hers! And I drive better too.
I think we need to have a shootout!
OH OK there big cans,,,,settle down..... Just be happy that Runner is actually running (If it is)..... The Runner in general wanted no part of either of these cars in the right hands..... Big cans or not.....
Nope. I had a 428 CJ 70 mach 1 and my brother had a 440 six pak 70 Cuda and my 428 Cj beat him everytime.
My dad had a 71 challenger 440 six pack 390 hp 4spd 3.91 gears and said he got out run by every 396 camaro, chevelle, and 428 mustang and fairlane he ever raced! He even took it to Mr norms and had a distributor recurve, timing and a dyno tune. He said those guys at mr norms said it was one of the best running six pack cars they had ever driven!
@@Tusuperbis My brother has a 1970 440 six pak Cuda 4 speed with 4:10 rear gears. He has had this car sense 1976 and I had a 428 CJ 70 mach 1 and could beat him.
IMO 1969 was the best-looking body style.
a very popular opinion. Shared by me
Without question.
Krista is any man's dream. She races old muscle cars, is knowledgeable about the history of them and she's a bombshell to boot.
Not to mention she can run a clutch BAREFOOT!
She sure knows her Mach 1s! I had a 1969 Mach 1 390 in meadowlark yellow many moons ago, still miss it!
Shifting barefoot was the best part of the video...
Coming from a previous r code owner.
Watching this video sure brought back memories of my 1969 Mach 1 428 Cobra Jet. Nicely done!
Good times we had, you and I
Both lady and both mustangs beautiful!!!
What made me love your video was that my second car was a red 69 SCJ. It had been the pace car at the old Fairgrounds Speedway in Salt Lake City.
I searched my whole life for a woman like this and never found her. Treat her good.
Great video! I am impressed that Krista really knows her stuff!
and shifting ain't one of 'em
She's repeating what her husband told her.
Cool video ! This Mach1 is sporting the same exact stance as my 69 Mach. Except I've got 295-50-15 BFG's stuffed in the back. Under the hood a 71 Boss 351 with the new TKX 5 speed. The 69 Mach1 is a Very desirable Mustang to own. Driving this car is like being a rock star, Thumbs up everywhere you go !
I'm disappointed that I didn't get to see how the race ended... and how much the Boss 429 won by.
LOL !
Great video, love seeing them side by side. Do the 429 Boss specific video with a Cameo Mach appearance
These are 2 beautiful cars! Sadly I never got to own the '67 to '70 Mustangs. '65 squareback factory K code,(green). '65 fastback w/K code drivetrain installed (red). '66 fastback w/289 barrel,4 speed (red). '69 Cyclone 428CJ, ram air, 4 speed (red). '71 fastback 351C w/ram air, C6(blue w/ flatblack on part of hood scoops). In the early 70's a guy had a '69 Mach1 428CJ w/ram air,4 speed. Black/black interior. He wanted $2500 for it & we thought he was crazy for asking that much! LOL
Sounds like a great collection of cars !
Nice ride. Mine was a 428cj in Lime Gold with black interior and had the louvered rear window and rear spoiler. Otherwise, identical.
Many happy miles!!!
Beautiful classic! An incredible find.
AC was available in the 428cj and 429cj automatics only but not with a four speed or drag- pac option .
Sweet. I've got a '73 Mach 1. Not as fast, but I still love it!
Now I understand the meaning of Ford "High Risers"...
Great video, legendary muscle cars.
Pretty steep cam! Hopefully it stays reasonably cool in traffic.
Very nice. If the Boss is stock, you should be the winner.
Nope... 06:15 Red car doesn't have posi... '428' looks to have about 200 HP... leaves mainly just exhaust smoke at takeoff...
Well remember the 428 Cj was hopped up by the factory to make it competitive. Where as the Boss 429 for the streets were detuned for warranty purposes. Now if you could buy a Boss 429 with a drag pack on it. Then I would say it would run much better. Ford just built something like 700 or 800 Boss 429’s to make them legal for nascar. Ford really wasn’t interested in building a performance road king out of it. So if a 428 CJ beats a street Boss. It’s really not a surprise. The biggest drawback I found on the big block mustangs was the 4 speed with a 2.32 first gear. And 3.25 rear gear. The big block cars over 400 inches under the hood came mainly with a close ratio 4 speed. A lot of guys learned to put the 2.78 1st ratio behind their big fords. And they ran great. But you had to have soft tires and a traction bar device on it to work best.
I got one in 1969, my buddy was working in engine at the time. He got me the 1135CFM Daytona carb for it. That and Sunoco 260 made it a beast. Now to make you all drool. I paid $3300 for the car even with the special orders I put on it.
Young lady knows her stuff for not seeing these cars new. Love how she drives barefoot.
Probably just for show, these cars had heavy clutch pedals, I guarantee her foot is not comfortable.
Love all the 57 ford's in the background 😎
Two beautiful Mustangs but I’ll take the Boss!
Cool Video!! 👍
Thank you ! Thanks for watching!
I had a red 70 Mach 1 with a 351Cleveland with the Hurst 4 speed............wonderful memories, damn it was fast.
Very nice sounding 428.
I worked in our towns (Titusville Florida) only machine shop with dyno when I was in H.S. in the early 70's. The shop worked on everything from central Florida locals to Daytona 500 race cars. I saw a lot of muscle cars and their engines come through the shop and I owned a '70 Mustang Mach I with a 351 Cleveland 4v engine. The Boss 429 as delivered was not a tremendous performing engine. Ford purposely had the car suffocated. In stock form the engine would dyno at about the advertised 375 HP but with big headers and an 1180 holley carb and no air filter and a proper tune they would pull almost 600 HP.
I never understand why Ford suffocated, detuned it.. What was the purpose? Isn't a good thing to have a fast car on the street, a winner reputation?
@@fernandochaves9665 For insurance purposes. In 1969 I wanted to buy a 69 Corvette with a 396 engine and the monthly insurance was more than the car payment. I bought a 70 Mach I with a 351 Cleveland rated at 300 horse. The payment was $110. and the insurance was $60. a month. I loved the Mach I. Never regretted that decision. I believed it was a better built car and the styling proved my choice was solid.
@@bentnickel7487 Thanks... Wow, I envy you. Everybody loves Mach 1's and Clevelands.
My dream car to the exact specifications
awesome !!!
The BOSS 429 is severely detuned (different heads with smaller ports than the NASCAR iteration), governor rev limited internally from the factory, and with a tiny carburetor (smaller than BOSS 302) for starters.
People tell me it's non-fixable (which I believe), and this is why the BOSS Nine can't get off the line to save it's ass.
I guess changing the hideously tall rear end gear could help to a degree, but that's about it.
Additionally, all the 429's and 460's have a .020 larger bore spacing than the FE motors, making them big blocks instead of medium blocks as such, and as a result are at least 50 lb.'s heavier.
Ford should have kept installing the FE 427R motor in cars, and saved the 429/460 (385 block) for Thunderbirds, Lincolns, and trucks ect.
That's just too cool
Nice.. Super Sweet, lost at first sight.
Nice rides
I miss my 1970 MACH 1 !!!! 😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭
Don't rest your foot on the clutch pedal,just a little pressure over time will mess with the throw out bearing
I owned a 1970 Mach 1 wit the 351W back in 1963-74. My buddy had a 1969 Mach 1 428 CJ 4 speed only in white with black interior. As far as the race with the Boss 429 I would take the CJ if the Boss 9 is stock. It also depends highly on the drivers.
Nopers... 06:15... Red car doesn't have posi... '428' looks to have about 200 HP... leaves just mostly exhaust smoke at takeoff...
Hey girl put your seat belts or just the lap belt on before the glasses . I think you would've made Steve McQueen proud beyond your driving . There was that scene in Bullet . You knew it was going to be a rough ride when he did that 😜❗
When I was young and foolish, I had a '69 Mach 1 351W with a C4 transmission. Street raced and beat all comers. While my competition was doing a smoke show, I went L2 until 10 mph, dropped it back to first, matted it and walked through the gears. I was accused of having a racing cam 😁
I had 69 mach 1. Was identical. Except i had the windsor 4 barrel engine, black interior with GT package. Simulated wood grain, clock in dash. Red inlays in carpet and seats. No spoilers or louvers. Also had a top loader 4spd. Had a ex stamped on intake. Was told it was a experimental intake. I want to say it had a autolite 4300 carb. But Had a staggered shock set up. 31 spline N-case 4.30 Detroit Locker. Drums in rear but dual piston calipers up front. No power steering. Called competition steering. Could literally snap your wrists when grabbing 2nd and if broke tires loose and spun around. Had my arms almost tied in a knot. Out of the 72000 made in 69. Mine was 1 of 5200 with GT package, 351w 4bbl and 4speed. Wanted to keep forever, but fell on hard times. And had to part with. My biggest regret in life. I even had a 74 sd 455 4 spd T/A that i traded for a jeep cj5 304 v8 headers and side pipes. Thats lift was treated 4x4s. And regret parting with mach 1 more than fire chicken. But today i wish i had both still. Also had a 67 buick gs400 4pd. And a 66 cyclone 390 4spd. Rolled that one. My last hotrod was a 04 terminator cobra. Now i drive a ford 500 and have 1st and 2nd gen vmax. And a 150 in evolution custom 300mm rear tire fat pounder. And the evo will dog both vmax. Time slips to prove. Vmax in low 10s but vtwin evo high 9s and its violent hp. Not smooth sailing like vmax's
Sounds like you had some killer fords !! Wish we could keep them all!
That ex signified experimental. That intake with the autolite carb. Is unobtainable stuff. Mine had also and was offered 5500 for back in the early 90s. Only car you could get a 4bbl Windsor was the Mach 1 and 69 70 gt350s. When ford and Shelby parted ways. All of the shelby goodies were removed at shelby before returning back to ford. So the engines didn't have an intake on them. So the remaining cars left had those ex manifolds installed. I bet you had the shelby shifter knob left on the shifter. Round tan know with white inlay and blue racing stripe. The guy responsible for removing those parts forgot about those. I had a 69 Indian fire red Windsor Mach 1. With the Gt interior. Simulated wood grain. Red inlays in carpet and seats clock above glove compartment. Lay down back seat. It had the top loader an a N Case 31 spline Detroit locker rear with 3.91 gears. So it had the GT and DragPak options. With a small block. No pwr steering but had front disc's. I had staggered quad shocks on the rear. From factory. Never seen before. For only being 290hp. It was faster than my 66 390 cyclone. And my 72 455 H.O. Trans Am. They were nibble lil performers. I'd say that were 335 hp like big blocks #s. 428s were closer to 375 or more hp. I allowed my parents to sell to help with their finances after a work accident shattered my dad's foot and couldn't work. I want to say I regret ever doing but how can I when it went to help my family. Ya kno. That 72 T/A was my graduation present from high school from my parents. 5200 out of 72000 69 fastback stangs were Mach 1s Kevin Marty didn't put out reports when I owned or I could tell you better the #s on mine. Was told by build sheet it was 1 of 5200 manufactured in 69. It had the tow hook placement the rings at all 4 corners still installed too. Weren't removed at dealership after delivery. It only had 33000 miles on it when I traded my Lincoln mark IV for it. Guy was all over that Lincoln and didn't think twice about trading. I was over the moon that he did. I was 22 at the time. Lincoln were for old dudes not fresh out of military men. LOL. A few ranchero and torino GTs arrived with a 4bbl Windsor also. But very few. And we're gone in 70 because 4bbl 351s were clevelands. So the only car in 1970 that had a 4bbl window was a shelby gt350. And it was a retitled 1969 that wasn't sold and shelby with help from government were allowed to retitle
@dissrepair so very true. If we wouldve only known. Ya kno. I was a 22 yr old brat fresh out of the Army. Thought I was much wiser then actually was. The good ole days. Those times are what's missed the most.
The police interceptor was rated at 345 hp with 2 barrel heads with small valves. The cobra jet was realistically closer to or just above 400 actual Hp. 428 Cj has basically low riser 427 heads on it. The police interceptor had mass torque when compared to the cobra jet. Small ports and a short first geared automatic pulling 4,500 lb police car to the 700 ft was comparable to any muscle car back then. But the police cars power died off once it shifted into 3rd gear with a 3.00 rear gear. Still ran a 14.90 ET. 2barrel heads with Box exhaust 3.00 rear gear and 4,500 lbs. The short block on a police interceptor was all cobra jet. Just change the heads and manifold. Put cobra jet exhaust on or headers. And put a Holley 735 or 780 vac on it. And it was a Cobra Jetty. The police 2 barrel stopped breathing around 4,000 rpm. I owned a 69 police car myself. And embarrassed a lot of street racers with it. If they were in front of me in a race. Most the time it was 300 ft before the finish line. On average. I could get out of the hole on them by about 100 ft. They were all shocked that car launched that fast and that hard. But all the short comings I listed about this car is what held it back from smoking most of them. The funny thing was. That 428 would turn some high rpm’s like a small block does. It was surprising to say the least. The same car Charles Mason got hauled if to jail in. 😂 so they could make a quick get away. 😆 TASCA put the combo together originally. But the short CJ came from the police package 428. The automatic was a heavy duty C6 with a short wide ratio gear box, big servo and extra clutch packs for police duty. Same tranny they put in the CJ mustangs with automatics.
You know your stuff man.. Lots of anecdotes for sure.
Watch the bumps with that front spoiler,and if you haven't beefed the front end you'll crush the pan . Braking doesn't work on it or just before the bump or even or a long dip. I got used to punch it right before to lift the front , just a little tough in a 30 zone though .I watched the pavement a lot in that car . 😎
I love this girl, she really knows mustangs
awesome car and owner
I had a 69 .5 . Build date 6/6/69 . Nothing ever was right and I thought it was semi custom. It wasn't . Before I sold it . The build was requested from the factory. It turns out it was a Super CJ. It had every option . It even has the GT package on top of being a Mach 1 . I had a council that had my oil pressure / amp and seat buckle holders and a red and blue light on the council that lit up every time you hit the brake pedal. There was a chrome snake left side of my clock. I had the lowest gears with the drag pack. The only thing I had was traction bars. The rims were chrome W/ GT covers and pop out GT fuel cap . I had it at Ford and they said it had everything. There was I thought something about a Black and white TV that could go between the front seats. I also had two horses in the front grill . It was Black with red interior. I had the adjustable steering wheel. Here's my take on the car . It's just a car. I'm a dirt biker and wanted a Porsche . I was talked into buying it so I did. Nothing heavy and it was . The only thing that got me was watching Bullet and Steve McQueen. That Mustang had no clue what was going to happen to it. I did everything Steve did and more. The pluses were the brakes. I replaced the shifter right away.to a Hurst comp plus. I put Shelby diamond backs on radial TAs. I'm not sure the rubber was the best decision, should've went Good year or something Italian. The other plus was it was reliable. I found out later because of the serious bottom I didn't use second gear . Taller it might not have broke loose so easy. I'm thinking the CJ in this video was taller. The Boss broke and I'd choose the CJ over the Boss. I noticed the pins weren't in and that hood shook at about 80. I tried to make it handle and pushed it to the limits. I only got crazy in it alone. After the new rubber I took it out on a back road at 2:00 in the morning after a light rain . The road had two nice bends. The first bend I was at about 80 and the second at about 90 I just touched the pedal and it broke. I went off the road took off my right front rubber and almost hit a telephone pole. The car was very front heavy and everything spun around it . Also any upgrade and I'd bash the oil pan, many times. To get the car to turn I'd come up hard to to corner and punch the brakes until I was about half way through and hit the pedal. No CJ was going full through. My toughest races on the road , which it totally reckless were with small displacement cars . They knew the weakness and no shame in losing to a CJ. At about 2:00 in the morning again I picked up a Porsche Carrera. I think it was non turbo but it moved. We were on a highway with regulated speed at 55. He couldn't get past me but he stayed a car length on my left . We got past the bends and the road straightened out but there was a small hill and patchy pavement. I put the pedal to the floor. The car lifted off the road and all four tires chirped three times before the Mustang straighten out. I've was so scared I could taste steel . I'm not sure but I slowed down and he gave me the thumbs up. Maybe for just keeping my car on the road. I think he could've taken me , because my car could barely make it over 115. It was screaming and the motor felt like it was coming apart . I sold it with no regrets I got everything out of it and didn't kill myself. I watched the girl driving and she's more beautiful than the car ,but very nice package. Bare foot on the clutch is also very impressive . Great video but I have to vote on the CJ and always on the driver 😜❗
Look at 06:15... Red car doesn't have posi... '428' looks to have about 200 HP... leaves just mostly exhaust smoke at takeoff...
@@BuzzLOLOL Interesting ❓ I had a 69 1/2 Mustang Mach 1 Super Cobra jet with the GT with the drag pack and low ratio . No even regular CJ didn't have positrack. If the rear shocks aren't staggered also is a sure sign it's not a CJ . I think also if it doesn't have the front sway bar it's not. I did have non stock traction bars and any without didn't grab . My truck was to skip second gear . Top speed on mine was at about 115 , and the motor was screaming. Many regular Mach 1's were built into CJ 's.
@@BuzzLOLOL She should've mentioned the staggerd shocks . Without that and bars it would just sit and spin . Adding the chin spoiler was a mistake without building the front end also. I did put heavy duty coils up front. I bashed my bra many times and crushed my oil pan ,but I beat the shit out it.
@@FantomWireBrian - I think the staggered shocks were to control the famous Mustang axle hop... even in 2000's hot Mustangs have couple weights on bars added to rear axle to dampen the axle hop frequency...
@@BuzzLOLOL Yeah you're right. I had the best bars available. I only raced it with a full tank, but never with a passenger. I ran a 442 and his rear hopped so bad he almost went into me. I had to take him or get hit .I passed running a Super CJ Torino . He would've killed me . I knew the guy and I'm not sure if he ever lost a run . At least I can say I didn't lose to him 😜❗
Pretty gir and car! 😎
The best version of model Mustang Mach I.
I need this car ❤
That chick has some really nice ride in that building. Tell us about the white Ford Unibed I saw in the background.
When the unibody hits the road, we will cover it! Thanks for watching
What a beauty! Car is ok too :)
I didn't realize Ford built a Cobra Jet mustang with Air Conditioning.
Ford has most always been the leader.... They may may not always be the fastest since competition had something always in their gunsights, but, if it weren't for the Mustang, there wouldn't be a firebird/camaro. Without the Falcon, their wouldn't be a Chibby 2, and without the Model T, and a bunch of defunct other car companies, there wouldn't be a GM, which was basically a company that bought up companies in disarray, IMHO.... oh lets not also forget, the "Louis Cheverolet", was basically founded by a NON American, So GM Claims USA.... well, lets just call it, CUC - the Catch Up Company
@@Musclford; Let's not forget, without the Ranchero, there'd be no El Camino. You're right. Lois Chevrolet was born in Switzerland 12-25-1878. He lived in France before coming to the United States. Lois Chevrolet died on 6-6-1941. Henry Ford, a genius, was born in Greenfield Township, Wayne County, Michigan USA, 7-30-1864. Henry Ford died on 4-7-1947 in Dearborn, Wayne County, Michigan. You can't get any more American than that! Lois was 62yrs old. Henry was 82yrs old. Another fun fact, If it weren't for Henry, we wouldn't have charcoal. Kingsford Charcoal.
Her car was correct with AC because it's a CJ not an SCJ.( Notice the horns were on both sides, with no oil cooler ) When you order the car with 3:90 or 4:30 gears you got the SCJ Drag pack. On those cars AC was NOT an option form Ford. Many people think R code means SCJ. Not true. R code is Ram air shaker hood 428 cu. Q code is 428 no shaker hood.
@@Musclford - Without Chevy, Fords would still be flatheads... and all 4 bangers...
Without Olds, no automatic trannies...
Without Kettering/GM, no electric starters...
Without DeSoto, no hydraulic brakes...
both mustang are awesome!
I had a R 428CJ mustang in the mid 80's and decided to cut it up and make a race car..Never finished it but still made at myself for not leaving it as is
Hi krista I'm john from Australia wonderful pair of 69 gems and good to see the b pillar badges on correct...I see so many in wrong I own a 69 mach 1 also ..not for sale lol
Well any chick that actually works and fixes their own car.... that's damn hot !
A friend of mine has a 69 SCJ DRAG PACK, matching #car.👍👍👍
I think the reason why ford didn't put the 427 in is because it's too much power for most people to handle
No
That woman driving in bare feet may very well be the sexiest thing ive ever seen. The car is nice too I suppose
wood like to see all those 57 fords in her garage
Coming soon
I miss my 70 Boss 302!
Was that Revan Evan in the boss 429?
2 badass cars and bronco the woman is awesome what a find for the lucky guy
I couldn’t agree more !
maybe do a grudge match with a bb 69 Camaro. Fun times!
That sounds great!!
Sweet Car! She drives the car as intended!!
My boss nine in my 73 one ton camper special will whip that little cheesy 360/428 any day the week!!
429 is obviously more collectible but i'd rather have the 428 for everyday. it's easier to modify and you don't have to pull the engine to change the spark plugs.
You might want to look at any FE powered mid-sized car, not just a 428 CJ/SCJ powered car (Fairlane, Mustang, or Torino) before you talk about spark plug changes. They can be interesting and not a lot of fun.
Boss 429 engines have the plugs just about in the center of the valve covers, and look to be less of a hassle. Headers are another story.
But take a Boss 429 and slap a set of headers and a true dual exhaust and yank the 735 cfm Holley for say an 850 Holley along with some 4.30 gears in a locker; and you have a horse of a different color. Ford deliberately detuned them for insurance purposes. Let that engine breath and you will be amazed at what it can do.
These problems were typical for a Ford. The engine bay was to small for an FE much less a 385 series engine. In my opinion Ford just didn’t understand how to design a car.
I have a 1969 mach 1 but don't know to fix it😅
Beautiful pony
Thank you 🤗
HOT TEXAS BRUNETTE...YES PLEASE!!
Wait till you drive a super cobra jet. A whole different animal
Wow, what a woman and driving a stick barefoot with a 428.
Well it looks like dude in the Boss was on it a bit harder and was spinning . The CJ didnt spin at all telling me she wasnt really trying....Both cars will ignite those itty bitty tires....The MACH1 was the nicer of the two cars really.... And when tested back in the day was faster than the detuned BOSS.....
So then why do so many experts say that the 429's varied widely from the factory and, despite conservative ratings, developed anywhere from 450 to 600+, bone-stock?
@@bretnelson6115 Because they know what they are talking about. But as installed in the mustang the BOSS was actually slow... One thing to think about is that they used the same size carb on the BOSS 9 as they did on the BOSS 302..... LOL An issue becomes apparent quickly. The BOSS 9 Clearly had the power potential and im sure that in no more then an evening of doing some swapping of parts the BOSSS 9 Mustangs could be made flat out evil....
Straight out of the box however the R code MACHs whooped up on them in tests performed back then.
I see.
@@kylevantassel7259 thats exactly right. From the factory boss 9s were severely defined and those big semi hemi heads couldn't flow correctly. My dad said the camshaft in boss 9s were lame as well. Timing, recurve distributor, bigger carb, better camshaft and headers woke those boss 9s right up! Of course those mods woke up all of the cars back then.
The CJ could've been hit harder ,and the Boss broke . I had the Super CJ 69 .5 bulid date with low gears . I went from first to third that worked with traction bars most all the time. F second gear . The Boss should've done that ,but I'd put my money on the CJ but most on the girl . 😆❗
Who did the boss belong to?
Had one back from Nam!! $4,200 out the door new. Dumbest thing I've ever done is when I sold it!!!!!😳😴
Wasn't the 428CJ around since 1967? Isn't that what they used in the majority of Shelby GT500s?
In '67and early'68 the Shelby Gt500 had a 428 Police Interceptor, not a CJ. The CJ had many performance improvements over the PI.
@@PatFleischman wasn’t the police interceptor a 427?
I'd wear a seatbelt if I had 400+ horse-pressure underfoot . . . and I do.
This one doesn't... 06:15... Red car doesn't have posi... '428' looks to have about 200 HP... leaves just mostly exhaust smoke at takeoff...
I went to high school with a guy that had its twin
Keep that foot off dat clutch in between shifts
The car is beautiful, but not quite as beautiful as her.
The car is nice too!
Must be nice to get two slices of the 🥧 pie
2:10 looks like the Mustang was losing.
Who's car and does She have a channel ?
She doesn’t have her own. But she’ll be back for more videos
What an awesome piece BUT who is the idiot that took the original factory am-fm radio out of the dash and replaced it with a aftermarket toy? Very glaring error!
06:15 ... Red car doesn't have posi... 428 looks to have about 200 HP... leaves just exhaust smoke at takeoff...
OMG, that woman is my hero 😊😅
The "Mach 1" designation was a 'trim package,' that COULD be ordered with performance options.
Boss 429, while an impressive tire melting, straight-line rarity, on a twisty-turny road racing course... couldn't hang with Boss 302.
I have to give credit to the girl clutching the CJ bare footed. Not many girls could handle just letting out the clutch and could shift . My car was an SCJ and maybe the clutch was bigger and the compression higher but if you didn't let the clutch out right it shut down. Two more times and the battery would be dead . I had a rule if you couldn't get the clutch out the second time you were done. I was going out skinny little girl who had ridden in my many times and even with it not moving 😜 and one night in front of guys that couldn't let the clutch out she said " I can start it and drive it " I told her the rule . She said" Okay then let me try " Buddies if mine said " You you can't do it Becky " I thought she couldn't but said Okay . She got in and started it and let the clutch out like she drove it a hundred times . She also shifted it perfectly. I have three daughters and unfortunately not from Becky,but they all had shifts on their first cars . Guys don't doubt them . I really believe their rhythm is better ,and my girls prefer sticks over auto's. The clutch in the video although does seem soft . I really never liked the Hurst "Tee" and stayed with the white ball that came with my Hurst . To me it's the best . There was a girl years ago that drove a bright yellow 340 AAR six pack. On the back she had a sticker that said " If you can beat me you can eat me ":Oh how I tried to race her . I would've done everything to win but no disrespect if I did. She was a very good driver and I never heard of anyone who beat her. 😜❗
Great story and memories. I believe this Mach has a center force clutch which helps with a lighter pedal.
@@dissrepair Interesting . You really has your back against the seat in mine,and the seat mounts were loose when I sold it . Years later I got the racing bug back and in 86 I bought a Shelby Charger turbo. It shifted nice and all 5 gears were honest. No disrespect to the SCJ but I've always wondered if I could equal or take it with that little pea shooter . 😎
I didn't see one of the other options I had in my Mustang that really helped me and the performance was the factory 8 Trac AM FM system . To get all the performance out of it you had to have Deep purple " Highway Star " lined up for every race . It helped keeping you from hearing the over rev of the motor and helped your timing shifting. Defiant and definite edge . Stone's were good too but a lot of really bad things happened to the car when played them . " All down the line " was a good / bad one. 😎
drivin bare, that's my kinda lady right there.
Cobra versus Boss? I was expecting a race or at least a comparison. Where's the "versus"?
No comparison... 06:15... Red car doesn't have posi... '428' looks to have about 200 HP... leaves just mostly exhaust smoke at takeoff...
Well they did not show who won the race so I take it the black mustang did and he's the only one doing burnouts I guess the chicks a little conservative but she's got a hot car.
How come you don't tell witch car won the dragrace and we have got to guess. I wouldn't have watched if I knew you was not gonna show it.
Funny the new mustang dark horse is 500 horsepower and it's a 302 the Cobra jet is a 428 with 335 but they say it's actually 425 horsepower that's 75 less than a 302 dark horse
All aluminum DOHC 302 vs all iron 428 pushrod OHV, completely different animals
Just put a 427 in that car and you will be the winter don't waste your time on those other motors
Nice cars but however you look at it they could never compete with the 427 Chevy or hemi cars they wouldn’t make it check out the factory performance data.
428 CJ Mach 1 should beat a Boss 429,although a bigger motor,it's heavier.
I work for ford 20 yrs use to drags a lot with all ford mustang 428.429 boss 302 boss once you new how to tune a fordfor the drag strip the 302 boss was the fastest.with times hy 12 and no 383 or 440 or 340 6 pack cars ever out ran that boss I took the 428 it would out run any dodge I race it would ran in the hy 13 4 speed or auto it didn't matter it out any hemi dodge I race but you have to no how to tune the car ford or differant
68 and 69 were the best mustangs ever
I totally agree with you!
Obviously I come back to the girl driving , but not just because how she looks . She knows how to drive the car . I have to give credit to who trusted her driving the car. I knew many guys that never let their girlfriends even sit in the front seat . Many never respected them when they got crazy behind the wheel. Women even if they don't drive have an intuition when it's dangerous. I'd hear guys laugh about how they freaked out their girlfriends. Not funny to me at all . If anyone isn't comfortable ,Stop. I was going out with this girl who never rode in my car . There was this nice merge on to the highway and I just got it up to speed fast. She freaked out and told me to let her out . I was totally surprised and apologized. She said her friend was paralyzed when her boyfriend street racing rolled a GTO. That too many times . A true man passes on a race instead of putting your ego ahead of safety.. A couple things to mention is the Tee handle on the stick. I'd lose that for the plastic ball it came with.The ball is more forgiving and palming it is easier. I saw there were no hood pins . It needs them. I put a couple small master locks to prevent the scoop from theft . If the car has the optional door from the trunk,bolt it shut. I was going to put a 1/4 " steel plate to permanently close it. Getting hit from the rear could be deadly . The fuel is just a rubber hose from the cap . The steel would add some needed rear weight. Respect and safety go together and no race is worth winning without that . 😎
Of the 2 give the the Boss 9 , worth 4 times what the mack 1 is pristine shape. Anyone saying the Boss cars were pooches are complete morons, know a guy who had 2 70,s 1 a 302 and 1 429. Both were vicious if the line with 4.30 fearing and super trac pac option. He beat BB chevys and mopars with the 302 and the 429 with street sticky mickeys was insane. After word got out about his Boss 429 noone would race him, his best time at the track on street stickies was a impressive 11.20 E.T and the first 30 feet was frying the tires off the line. Boss mustangs were just BAD ASS.
Bare feet shifting! Only a woman would have the Cajuns to do that! Kudos
It gives her better feel for the pedals!!
