performance but an outstanding drivingenvironment as well. In the Mach 1, thatphilosophy is expressed by a sophisticatedpowertrain, outstanding chassis dynamicsand significant interior and exteriorenhancements.
This supplement complements yourMustang Owner’s Manual and providesinformation specific to the Mach 1. Byreferring to the pages listed in thissupplement, you can identify thosefeatures, recommendations andspecifications unique to your new vehicle.If there are any discrepancies between thissupplement and the Mustang Owner’sManual, this supplement shall supersedethe information found in the MustangOwner’s Manual.
Mach 1 History
The Ford Mustang has been celebratedover the past half-century with manyspecial performance versions, includingseveral unique models that have proudlycarried their own nomenclature. Therehave been HiPos, Shelbys and GTs, plusCalifornia Specials, Bosses, Cobras, SVOsand 5.0s, Cobra Jets and Bullitts – eachwith distinct design cues and equipmentenhancements targeted at specific buyers.Of them all, perhaps the best-known andmost accessible to the widest owner baseis the Mustang Mach 1, a sporty fastbackfirst introduced in 1969 that had the look,features and performance that helpeddefine the muscle car era.
In postwar America, the Jet Age influencewas all the rage -- especially in the autoindustry, where tail fins and air intakesinfluenced progressive car designs. It wasthen when the terms Mach 1 and SoundBarrier became part of public conversation,as jets and rockets were being employedin aeronautic experiments to helphumankind soar past the speed of sound.
Ford’s first use of the Mach 1 name cameon a concept vehicle – a wheel-lesssingle-seat pod tethered to an arm thatallowed it to glide on a cushion of airaround a circular track set up at the FordRotunda in the spring of 1959. Ford’sLevacar Mach 1 Concept was anair-propulsion flying car of sorts,suggesting that vehicles in the future coulduse ducted air to levitate and maneuver athigh speed while off the ground.
The Mach 1 name was resurrected in 1966for another Ford concept car that wasmeant to preview some aerodynamic andstyling advances for a futuristichigh-performance Mustang fastback. Thetwo-seat Mustang Mach 1 Concept thatwas shown at the 1967 Detroit Auto Showfeatured a slanted areo-grille, severelychopped roof, large air scoops and steeplyslanted rear glass as part of a fullhatchback -- a design feature thatwouldn’t appear in production until 1974.Ford updated the Mustang Mach 1 Conceptwith a new front-end treatment in time fortouring the auto show circuit in 1968 toherald the popular pony car’s third stylingrefresh due the following year.
By the time 1969 had rolled around, theagain restyled and upsized Ford Mustangwas facing a series of new challenges, bothin the muscle car wars taking place out inthe marketplace by an onslaught ofpowerful new competitors, and inside ofFord Motor Company, where a new, Steedfor Every Need marketing approachexpanded pony car offerings to five distinctmodels with at least 10 differentpowertrain combinations. Ford's Mustanghad galloped into its fifth model yearrefreshed with unmistakable good looks,thanks to its 2+2 fastback now called theSportsRoof, featuring upper rear-quarterscut with forward-facing scoops and adramatic tail that incorporated an upsweptrear edge.
