Nice vid... better safe than sorry when sorting things out

I can’t figure out if this is a well maintained 428 or a supped up 351 …

Meu deus do céu mais coisa mais linda do mundo amei 1969 Ford mustang Mach 1

I watched the Roger Penske Sunoco Camaros with Mark Donohue and Ronnie BUCKMAN. Beat the mustangs in the 1968 and 1969 TRANS AM series ! Nice mustang though..! I grew up on this track …! 🏁🇺🇸🏆

It’s hard to believe Ford put four-wheel drum brakes on these things out of the factory. My ‘67 Fastback was scary as hell in a bad way. A quarter-turn of slop in the wheel combined with front drum brakes and 320 HP was a bad idea.

'69 Mach 1s had front disc brakes, not drum.

The cure for 4 wheel drums is Velvet Touch Full Metallic Brakes they really work well when you get them hot but won't stop when cold like when you first take off in nthe morning .

cjshaker is right. The 69 Mach I had front disc with rear drum brakes. My 69 CJ came from factory that way.

My 67 GTA Mustang had four pot calipers up front. The TransAm racing Mustangs had six pot calipers from the Thunderbird.

seems very torquey😀

That is awesome! A lot more information about the suspension would have been nice though.

So what you're talking about is a modern race car in an old skin. I had a 428CJ Mach 1 and it didn't drive like that, didn't sound like that, didn't handle like that and certainly didn't stop like that. Calling it a 1969 Mustang Mach 1? Hardly.

Awesome car, what track is this?

@@mcmotorsportsdesign6197 First thanks for the reply. I raced bikes there years ago in late 80's early 90's, that transition from the last turn to the straight away was always hairy, especially when wet. Saw some friends bite it hard there with tank slappers. They finally put some chicanes in to try and slow down the speeds in the transition, it just caused more problems. The real issue was the cement burnout patch being slick as greased owl sh**. Great video and car. Don't live there anymore but I sure have some fond memories of the place.

Correct me if I am wrong, but is that a dash out of a 68? I’m thinking the 69 has a different dashboard.

I believe you're correct. I seem to remember that the owner doesn't like the 69 dash.

Yup. This day was the first shakedown of the car. It was awesome but there were lots of little needs to be addressed before I or anyone else would feel comfortable really wringing its neck. Wait for the next one. The owner has another 69 in the works that should make this one look like a Sunday cruiser.

🆒🙋‍♂️

I would have kept it original since Mach 1s are so rare

Who needs brakes,just downshift !!!!

That's funny Kerry. Thanks for that. It was the car's first day at the track and we were just out to figure out what it needed. We knew it would go fast. We just didn't know if it would turn or stop. That's the reason for the tentative driving. Once its fully sorted and we get it back out there, we'll do another one at speed.

He said the brakes needed work. So, would you be driving a '69 Mustang with 600 hp flat out with sketchy brakes? You could tell he was checking everything out and he was driving it carefully. Besides, it is not his car. Maybe next time read the video introduction before commenting?
