1969 Ford Mustang Mach 1 Cobra Jet
The Mach 1 was a performance package that Ford began offering in 1969. Available with a range of engines, the potent 428 was fitted as the “Cobra Jet” and was a cheaper alternative to the BOSS 429. For drag racing a “Super Cobra Jet” was essentially the same package with a reinforced drive shaft.

1969 Ford Mustang Mach 1 Fastback 428 – Ford unleashed the Cobra Jet 428 big-block engine to endow the Mustang with enough power to dominate not only the super stock classes at drag strips across the country, but on the streets as well. Buyers flocked to the showrooms to pick their favorite items from Ford’s mouthwatering menu, the result being scores of uniquely-equipped and very quick cars wearing the Blue Oval. In the case of this R-code automatic Sportsroof, it is one of only 235 painted in beautiful Raven Black. Of those, only 158 had the Black Mach 1 Bucket seats; of those, 66 came with a tach, 22 with the Visibility Group and only 4 with the 3.50 rear axle. Of those 4, this car is the only Mach 1 built with manual drum brakes. Auction Source: 2010 Mecum Kissimmee, FL Auction
1969 Ford Mustang Mach 1 Fastback Factory R-Code, 428 SCJ, – Freshly restored and completely correct, this Pastel Grey 1969 Mach 1 is a premier example of one of the best street/strip Mustangs ever built. It comes with an Elite Marti Report documenting it as the only 1969 Mustang with its particular set of options, the two most important of which put it solidly in the top echelon of all Mustangs: the W-code 4.30 Drag Pack and the R-code 428/335 HP Super Cobra Jet V-8 packed with NASCAR-grade internals, in this case mated to a heavy duty C-6 automatic for maximum efficiency on the drag strip. Radio delete and standard steering and brakes contribute to the car’s purposeful nature. The Deluxe Décor interior is standard to the SCJ-optioned Mustang; this car also features chrome styled steel wheels wearing White-lettered Goodyear Polyglas tires.
