Highlights: – V8 engine, petrol, automatic transmission – Mach 1 specification with black hood scoops and side stripes – Red paintwork with alloy-style wheels – Red and white interior with wood-rimmed steering wheel – Centre console with floor-mounted automatic shifter The private seller offers for sale this 1972 Ford Mustang Mach 1, powered by a V8 petrol engine, paired with an automatic transmission. The Mustang is the car that created the pony car class when Ford launched it in 1964. By 1971 the model had grown into a larger and more muscular fastback, and the Mach 1 became the sporty flagship of the range, with a distinctive hood with air scoops, a deep front spoiler, a blacked-out grille and bold side stripes. The 1972 model year was the last of this generation before the Mustang was downsized for the Mustang II, which makes these cars especially interesting to collectors of American muscle. This example is finished in red with black hood scoops and black side stripes, which emphasise the long, low fastback profile. The front end carries the Mustang running horse in the blacked-out grille, flanked by round headlights and amber lamps, with a chrome bumper and a black front spoiler below. It stands on alloy-style wheels. The engine bay shows a V8 engine with a chrome air cleaner and a blue-painted block. Inside, the cabin is trimmed in red and white, with white high-back bucket seats with red piping, a white rear bench seat with red seat belts, a red dashboard and a wood-rimmed steering wheel with a Mustang emblem. An automatic transmission with floor shifter and a centre console complete the interior. For enthusiasts looking for a recognisable American muscle car from the early 1970s, this Mach 1 offers a striking look and the sound of a V8. Condition of the bodywork & paint 4 — Very Good.
