SUMMARY
Absolutely stunning, second-generation, 4.9-litre 'Grabber Blue' Mach 1.
DESCRIPTION
- This awesome example underwent a full 'bare-metal' restoration around 8 years ago after being in long-term storage and remains in excellent condition today. Just over 62,500 miles
- An 'F-Code' car with original factory build-sheets. Fitted from new with a rare factory manual gearbox but now upgraded to a Tremec T5Z, 5-speed with Hurst manual shifter
- Still fitted with its original Ford 302ci Windsor (4.9-litre) V8 that was professionally fully rebuilt in standard form retaining the smog canister (bypassed), factory ‘cast’ exhaust manifolds and ‘2v’ carburettor and intake. The carburettor was sent to the USA for a complete restoration before being refitted
- Upgraded GAZ Gold adjustable shocks fitted all around, matched and upgraded 'Rocketman Tach' and sitting on 15” Magnum 500 Wheels with BF Goodrich tyres
- Flawless Ford Grabber Blue coachwork with a Black Mach 1 Vinyl interior
- The car also sports optional front power disc brakes, power steering, front and rear spoilers along with a 'Ram Air' bonnet
- These models are extremely rare and sought after on both sides of the Atlantic and this particular car would grace any private collection or indeed be an exhilarating everyday car.
