Back in 1969, Ford Motor Company introduced the stylish Sportsroof design that formed the basis for the Mach 1 package. Amazingly, over time, the Mach 1 became even a higher seller than the GT, lasting through the 2nd generation closed in 1978.

The 4th generation Mustang take on the Mach 1 was when I really began to appreciate the early models, which is why I bought one in December, 2002. The view over that shaker scoop never got old.

What fond Mach 1 memories do you hold dear still?

I hope you've had a chance to read through your copy of "Engineer + Enthusiast = Excitement". Scott and I would like to hear from you. What did you like? What did you wish was covered? How were the photos?
