Love that 69 Mustang Mach 1 !...... For my taste, the 1969 Fastback was the best looking Mustang ever built!
I really wanted a Mustang but I was in sixth grade.
As far as I know the 428 was just a Ford 390 with a longer stroke. My brother had a 428 and it did have better pistons and probably other stuff to stand up to the higher revs and power output, but it was basically a 390 (although with low rise dual 4 barrel carburetors) - the same engine in the station wagon with a single dual barrel carburetor. The rocker arms were on a rocker shaft, like the 390, while the 429 and 351 Cleveland had canted valve trains that allowed the engines to breath better.
@@danzervos7606
Your off - the 428 was a 406 bore
And a 410 stoke...
A 1966 410 Merc will have the 428 crank's external weight behind the harmonic balancer.
A 390 will not. A quick way to tell externally. 410 and 428 are external balance and require the front weight and the correct flywheel.
The also others that can screw you , uhaul motors...
But the 4o6 is the god father block of the 427fe. Motor - the 406 was Ford’s response. It wasn’t a big change from the 390, just a 0.080-inch-larger bore, with thicker walls in the engine block casting. Compression went from 10.6:1 to 10.9, exhaust valves got slightly larger, and to take the extra stress, piston and connecting rods were strengthened. Carbs and camshaft, crank and the dual exhaust stayed the same. The three-carburetor setup had become available as a dealer-installed option in 1961...
Wish to build a bass ass 410 - use a 360/390 block, 350 olds 69 hi pro flattop pistons and long rods from a in line 6cly Ford with after market rod bolts.... the rods will be a big weakness - but with a .ooo7 hone that piston fits very well... Great street motor!
@Geo Thomas
I didn't say the same engine - 406 and 410 was the godfather of...
I work for DoraBond as a screw machinist...
Been around - been around - has been years - 360/390 same block
@Geo Thomas
The 427 had a bigger bore 4.250 if I recall, the 427 side oiler motor had cross bolted main caps and larger dia head bolts...
All FE blocks shared basic bore centers... However, unlike a Chev. Not all parts will exchange as a direct bolt.
Came home from vietnam in 1968.bought a 69 mustang.had a lot of fun in that car.
Roger Sawyer thanks for your service!
Yes sir, thank you for your service!
Thank you for your service sir.
I just did what every red blooded American boy is supposed to do..serve your country when needed. But I sure enjoyed that mustang. One hell of a ride!!
Roger Sawyer Glad that you made it back home to live and share your memorable experience,lotsa guys were looking forward to doing the same thing,but those who didn't,(unfortunately) you got to do it for your fellow brothers in arms. thanks
I’ll take the Mach 1 any day over any other car.
I would unless it is a gt40 from 66’.
Disappointed that they didn’t drag these two cars to really see which one was faster. Numbers are one thing; but, the proof is in the pudding.
Theycan't, they are garage queens
@@bagnoleunderdog9602 sadly but true
The Camaro would of walked it, lighter car, with more HP. The Camaro ruled the dragstrip in the muscle car era
@@jameskester7745 ha ha ha ha ha ha ha, good one.
@@bagnoleunderdog9602 Get 'em out of the garage and run 'em every now and then, is I say.
I like them both, but would probably take the mach 1 because around here it's a lot more rare to see then the camaros. I'd take a 69 boss over them, love that hood.
Yeah I'd rather have a Baldwin motion Camaro or a yenkco Camaro then either any of thosel it's a lot better engine than the 396 had problems with the rods,it
Would be a lot better comparison ! Another give up one cubic inch than 32 they're both nice cars not trade them for a yenkco
The cobra jet was underrated when it comes to horsepower for insurance purposes. It actually made north of 400hp
Love them both, but I think I'd take the Mach 1. There's something about Mustangs that no other car, no matter how fast or flashy, can never quite equal.
The 69 and 70 mustang bodystyles were just so freaking stunningly beautiful you just could not take your eyes off them.My all time dream stang would be a 69 mach 1 with a 427 side oiler / toploader 4 spd/ 4.30 suregrip posi and trac pack. Super hot looking and super fast. Wish they woulda dropped a few side oilers into the mach chassis cuz they'd be the epitome of rare.
My first car was a 70 Mach 1 with the 428 SCJ, drag pack, manual steering, C6 trans and 389 rear gears. Those were the days!
Rich dad?
@@Warrior_Resisting_Colonialism no, bought the car in 1982 in pieces and spent the winter putting it back together!
@@fz0gtg Awesome.
I'd gladly take either. Preferably both.
In 1969- YOU CAN'T LOSE WITH EITHER CHOICE :-)
GrandFunalley Media that's what I like to think... owning a 69 economy car :D
These cars were pretty equal in HP in the real world, too.

I love the way you think. Wish it was a peaceful war like this every year.
@@jackrose1018 hey Jack should I get a 69 Camaro z28 R's or a 70 gt500
428 SCJ 4 speed Drag Pack is my dream car!
Funny how Chrysler uses "Drag Pack" name for their cars now !
Mustang Mach 1 Is the car to own in 1969. I was there.
I had a 428 rebuilt 25+ years ago. In stock trim on the dyno, it pulled 392 hp. With added ceramic- coated exhaust headers and a change to a dual quad set up and an aluminum intake (originally available on the '67 428 interceptor), it was up to 420+ hp! Ford definitely gave us a wink and fibbed on the h.p. capability of this legendary beast to pull the wool on the insurance company bean counters!
428 SCJ Mach1 all the way! My 2nd car was a 68 and a 1/2 428 CJ. Mustang Gt Fastback and it was a Camaro Killer! Gotta love that 428 CJ!👍👍

I'll take a 69 or 70 mustang any day of the week.
got to have the cobra jet
Anyone that believes the 335hp rating for the Super Cobra Jet is living in another world. That is probably one of the most underrated engines in that era. I wonder if it had anything to do with keeping insurance costs down. Anyway, my first Mach One was a 69 390 4sp in Acapulco Blue. I could beat most SS 396 Chevelles but never raced a 396 Camaro. My second one was identical to this one except it was red. It was the pace car at the old Fairgrounds Speedway in Salt Lake City. Super Cobra Jet 4:30 gears with the C-6. It passed everything but a gas station. Man, I wish I had that car back.
I've seen a 428CJ dyno at 406. A 428SCJ actually doesn't have any more power. They use the same intake, heads, carbs, exhaust, etc. If anything, an SCJ should make a tiny bit less HP because it used heavier rods but they were built to withstand more punishment. They also came with an oil cooler and being more rare, they are worth more.
I put a 428 out of a K.C. 1966 Ford Police car in my 68 Ford Ranger. From its performance with a C-6 and 3:50 gears , I always guessed it to be around 500 H.P. I could ease it up to 35 or 40 in first , then open the 4v as I shifted to 2nd gear and set the truck sideways on good pavement.
Yeah insurance reasons were why it was rated at a paltry 335. More like 425. Same reason the boss cars were rated so low. Boss 302 was 290 when it really put out 385 in a small block.Boss 429 was rated at 375 when it was dyno'd at 500+.
You never heard of a ZL1? Race car engine rated at 430hp... Actully put down 550+. Ran a 13.1 in 69 with the same tech as these two car had.
@arborcidal maniac lol. In your dreams. I owned 2 390GT Fairlanes and couldn't even beat a 350 Chevy much less a big block.
The 428 Cj dynoed at 400+ hp. The 335 hp was for the insurance co.
"Ford had the better idea" when it came to insurance companies lol.
bob burke the 396 has 11.1 cr....please the mustang is probably 8.8:1
CareerFireman 2016? Cars lose horsepower over time and considering most car journalists agree the 428 CJ made around 400 I bet that car needs a tune up.
CareerFireman Wouldn’t even make 365 HP as it sits in the car. 365 HP was “gross HP”, not “net”.
Another fun fact, the 426 street Hemi didn’t make anything over it was rated at either, as it sat in the car. If Made 480 HP at the crank with no exhaust, no accessories and no air air filter, add those and you have 425 HP.
Why do people have this need to ignorantly perpetuate myths about 60s cars?
CareerFireman Correct. Virtually every independent engine dyno you’ll see will be done in “gross” configuration. Open header/manifold, running a water pump alone, and open inlet/carb.
I own a '68 Camaro RS, but I love Mustangs just as much. I have no brand loyalty when it comes to the muscle car era. GM, Ford, Mopar, American Motors, I love them all.
Mustang fan. At the age of 19 I purchased/traded my 1978 mustang 2 ghia for a 1969 mustang gt coupe 351w. The 78 was my first car for 2years. I restored the 69 mustang. Indian red with black interior. Owned the same car from 1987 to 2003. Pure enjoyment.
Damn, why sell it?
The Dude I miss it. Currently driving 65 mustang convertible.
We have a 69 mustang in indian red its a good color
I like cherry red more than the Indian red but they still look really good
@@jamestheobald535 My younger brother had on too. He installed a 351C bored to 357 CID, 12.45:1 compression, very hot cam, 850 carb, etc. He failed to connect his sub-frames and the motor twisted the car so bad;y that the front right fender split and the right beam running up beside the windshield connecting the roof split. So the first thing I did with my 428CJ '70 Mach was to use high quality weld on sub-frame connectors and other things to stiffen and reinforce the car.
Camaros sick, but, I'd take that Stang all day, every day. Mustangs are my favorite, that SCJ option brought that 428 into a different realm, good drag motor for the duration of a day!!
This is a tough choice for most people. I think the Mach1 is beautiful inside and out. I would choose the Mustang. I don’t like the rear end of the 69 Camaro or the interior.
Too easy of a choice Mustang
I agree
I'd choose a 69' Firebird and walk both
Since there's not a RA IV Pontiac in the voting, I'd take the Mach 1.
Sure thing... I'd take the Mustang! The history, the style, the sound.
An icon of America, an icon to the world...a passion to New Zealand,
" F.A.A.F"
Ford Awesome, Awesome Ford!
Mustang👍
When I came home from Vietnam, I had basically saved all of my pay, plus some poker winnings. I drove the Camaro 396 first and then the Mustang...drove away with the Mustang and it was an easy choice. I regret that I did not hold on to the Mustang, but hey, I did trade it for a Corvette after a couple of years.
Thank you for your service. Both cars are badass honestly, why not have a Corvette, Camaro, and Mustang lol
Only thing bette than a mustang and a camaro is a corvette..
Jesus H Medrano not really only looks but not lights
Terry Bruce respect for your services
Why did you downgrade to a Corvette?
Both are great cars, but to me it's always been Mustang.
Awesome video! Would love to see more of these comparison videos. Definitely a Mustang fan. Love that 69!
Mustang fan for ever definitely
Mustang; really wanted a '69 Mach 1 when I got my license in 1976, but couldn't afford one then, and it's always been one of my favorites.
69 Mach 1 all the way I currently have a 2007 gt mustang that I have mods done to it, it’s the closest look of a 69 out there and I had a 69 fastback years ago but not a Mach just a standard 302 3 speed manual car but was fun to drive. Wish I still had it
Back in the day I had 67 Camaro 350ci/4spd with 4:10 gears. The car ran better than average, outran a friend in his 396/375hp Chevy II. No problem with the Fords I raced until going home one night I got behind a Mustang. My plan was to jump him in first & second and then just push him home in third. When I saw his car squat I nailed it, broke even in first, hit second and he started pulling some, third hell he was pulling away. It was a "WHAT" moment for me. Saw him at the hangout the next week and he gave me a nod. Felt better when he cranked it, built 428...
steve thomas I had the exact same Camaro! I still have a 68 SS Camaro.
Julie, bought the car from a guy that had ordered it. Had a fold down rear seat and a fan rear window defroster. Loved that car. If you were in Atlanta I would want a ride. I would be lying if I didn't say I'm a bit jealous, ok a lot . Enjoy your 68!
@@stevethomas760 I've had a couple 67th in a 68 myself and never heard of a rear window defroster. Must be some kind of special order!
@@chevychase3103 I think you could get a electric like current cars. It gave me some incredible memories.
@@stevethomas760 , no it was just a blower, they didn't have the electric grid yet.
Happily I had a 1969 Dodge Charger RT with a 440 six pack. But if I had to choose on of these 2, it would be the Mach One easy.
I would take a 69 Camaro ZL1 its faster then the mustang or the dodge, and I know the 440 very well and it has nothing on the L88 427
@@boostjunkie2320
Father had a 68 charger - put him in a wheelchair as a quad...
Uncle was killed in a bass ass 66 Nova big block out of his 1970 RS/SS camero.
Had a 428 scj in my 1970 f 100 -
But for my money the 400 with 440 crank in a 1970 challenger.
Is a bad ass ride in my day of the late 70's...
Next to the Mustang the Camaro looks a little bland, make mine the Mach 1 especially with the 428 CJ.
gary cotham it may look bland until you pop the hood and watch it kick the mustangs ass on the drag strip
@@bigdaddyvince1825 its still ugly
That ill fitting trunk spoiler on the camaro looks so shotty. They always reminded me of a teenagers car who had went to a junkyard and yanked one off any random car knowing it wouldn't fit and bolted it on just to make it look cool.
I feel the opposite. the mustang has like 4 lines that make up the car shape and texture, while the camaro has better curves and stance. just my opinion though.
Mustang. My dad had the exact same car when I was a kid. A blue 69 mustang mach 1 with the 428 Cobra Jet. I loved him taking me to school in it in the early 80s. It would've been nice if he kept it for me.
Mustang fan. That is my dream car.
Mustang, the originator...camaro, the imitator. Big block FE power...greatest satisfaction known to man...
They are both fantastic cars however since I see many more 69 Camaros on the road and rarely see a 69 Mustang I can't help but think that the Camaro was much more popular. It was when I started driving in 1975.
Same thing by me. At the car shows it's rare for me to see the mustang but I always end up seeing a couple camaros. Because of this alone I'm thinking about redoing the 69 mach 1 sitting at the shop instead of the 69 maro. I've owned 3 maros and now a procharged ws6 so guess I'm more of a gm guy so this would be a big switch for me haha
Camaros are like arseholes. Everyone has one, most stink.
I really appreciate how level headed this channel is, it's so refreshing to see a car channel that isn't obviously biased towards one manufacturer and crowns them the king every time
I bleed blue so the 428scj mustang for sure
Mustang for me. Driving my 8th one now....:)
Seeing both in original trim and builds is a treat. Both or these are awesome and have a special place in every car enthusiasts heart.
i was a stock clerk at a supermarket wen i bought my 69 mach1 exactly like that one interior an exterior at the age of 16yrs old. cant wait to find another one. sweet days ago
I like that the blooper was left in. Funny thing is that even though he pointed the way he did I still understood him. - and I’d go with the Mustang this time.
When I was in my early teens there was a couple 69 camaros in the neighborhood, loved them and want one someday. But then I saw a 69 mach 1 and the Camaro wasn't even a thought. Bought my 69 mach 1 and 20 after 2 years of looking
Both fine examples,but my money goes to the SCJ!
Nice! 2 greats ... but on this one i'd take the Mustang . I always preferred Trans Am's to Camaro's on the GM side but out of the Camaro and Mustang in this video i'd go with the Mustang ,love that Camaro SS though . Nothing wrong with that Camaro whatsoever . But i'll take that 69 Mustang Mach with the Cobra Jet . Great video of 2 great rides.
Mustang Mach 1 hands down! The Camaro styling was old and stubby by then and the Mach 1 was sleek and beautiful and the best interior for decades! The numbers don't lie either what America thought because 80k Mach 1 sold and almost half of them with 428 power. 300 some 4 speed 396 Camaros with 375 hp.
The Mach 1 was 400 hp+ with a minor tune. Just like the GM and Mopar big blocks.
1969 Camaro is an automotive icon.
Sales prove the Mustang was far better liked than the Camaro. The are boring vehicles as well. They never had the looks of the Mustang.
@@mustardstain504d6 You're right, and the 67&68 Camaros were better looking then the 69...
My dream car is a 69 mustang.
After owning four Camaros and one Mustang i’m going to have to say the Camaro but I still think the Mustang is sweet too.
My Dad owned that Mustang in Candy Apple Red in 1969 with 4 speed Hurst. I actually love both cars and was a Corvette guy for years. Great video!
Tough choice, tough cars. I would take both of them.
Salivating at the chop, thanks Kevin for another great episode.

Both are great cars. I had a black & gold 1973 Mach 1 351-C (2 bbl). It was not as powerful as the cars from 1970, and earlier, but was fun to drive.
I had to chuckle when I saw this video. As a teen In the mid '70s I had a '69 SS 396 (L78) Camaro, it was even the same color as the one in the video, while one of my best friends had a '69 Mach 1 428 CJ, red with a shaker hood. Both were 4 speeds with a Hurst T, but otherwise the CJ was stock. My SS had a full cam, headers, 4.11 posi, and a load of other hot rod goodies. I came from a Chevy family, he was a Ford fanatic, and we had friends in the Mopar tribe and even one with a '69 AMX 390. Although we all used to rag on each other, in reality we all appreciated sweet examples of Detroit iron no matter who made it even if we didn't always want to admit it.
Due to their different DNA, my SS and his CJ had different personalities aside from the way they were modded (or not). My SS was wound much tighter than his CJ due to its hot rod goodies and gearing, which was good and bad. Being built for the 1/4 mile, it was quicker off the line than that stock CJ, but it likely had less top end and was more temperamental and thus harder to live with on a day to day basis. That lumpy cammed rat motor sure sounded sweet, though. The 396 had much more room to work under the hood than the 428 'Stang due to the difference in shock tower placement. Under hood maintenance such as changing plugs, which had to be done far more frequently in those days, was laughably easier on my SS than his CJ.
We sometimes swapped cars on cruise night, and being almost completely stock and not as tightly wound his CJ was better behaved and ran cooler than my SS. Heat was always an issue with higher compression and more radical cam, and was much harder to manage with the equipment we had available back then. In fact, on hot summer nights on the strip I'd make just an occasional pass in the SS then park it and watch the parade go by. Being stock, his CJ wasn't so affected.
I preferred the seating position in my Camaro over the Mustang, where the driver sat lower in the car. I'm 6'2", but it was still more challenging to see over the dash and long nose of that Mustang especially with the shaker. Visibility to the rear wasn't great in either, but the Mustang's roof line, rear window slant (with slats), and lower seating position created bigger blind spots. The more upright interior of the Camaro vs the swoopier Mustang made the interior feel lighter, roomier, and easier to get in and out of the front and especially back seats.
In general, they each have/had pros and cons and the SS is definitely my sentimental favorite, but I'd take either one of them in a heartbeat.
Another Great video, keep up the great work.
Definitely the Mustang Mach 1. My uncle had a 1969 mach 1 428scj he said it was more like 435 horsepower.
The Laugh at the end says it all... "We're not making the call!" I'm a Ford guy, but we ALL have nothing but respect for the 396, and it probably was the better performance potential between the two. The Mustang's 428 probably felt a bit better off the line due to some more torque, but it probably comes down to who could shift better... I love both cars.
I owned a 69 Mach 1, 4 speed. She was a beauty. The cherished memories I have of her. Foolish is the man that lets the love of his life go.
Both very beautiful and very fast..... But as a Ford man I'll take the 428 CJ Mach 1. But don't get me wrong... I love both the first and second gen Camaro's... particularly a 69 ZL1 Camaro or a 67 or 70 1/2 Z28. Both the Chevy 302 and LT1 350 were absolute screamers for small block V8s. Really I love all muscle cars regardless of the manufacturer. Dodge, Plymouth, Ford, Mercury, Chevy, Pontiac, Buick, Oldsmobile....Hell even American Motors built some bad ass machines in the late 60s and early 70s
nice ss but i own 2004 compition orange mach 1 so my answer is the 69 cj all day
I loved the 69 Mach 1 I had! A rust colored beauty! It was fast and yet comfortable to drive. Why did I trade it...
Camaro! I have had about 20 classic cars in my lifetime and I still have a 68 SS big block Camaro...4 speed manual trans. I LOVE IT.
428-SCJ Mustangs set records in NHRA SS that took a long time to break. They ran a 40# steel flywheel like mine used to have and speed-shifted them...10's w/ small tires.
Mustang all the way but always appreciate classic muscle from any make!
The time has come to say WE LOVE THEM ALL. Don`t forget Mopar and A.M.C. too. ANYTHING from that era is choice these days.
Back in 69 I would have slaved for years to get a Mach 1 Cobra Jet! Never happened and I gravitated to the Camaro SS 2 years ago. Still love the look of both. 69 and 70 saw some of the beautiful muscle cars ever!
Bought a '69 Mach 1, burgundy with the gold trim in 1969. I was a damn fool for trading it in for a Triumph in 1975.
Always a Chevy Guy but love the 69'-70' Mustangs and the SCJ Engine. So have to go Stang on this one. And they had way more than 335 Hp. More like 375 Hp at least. I would add the rear spoiler,louvers, and Magnum 500 rims though.
Also video says SCJ and He says it has the lower rated plain CJ? Big difference in These two engines as the SCJ has the Drag Pac.
My first car was a 66 Mustang. I really like the 69 fastback and the Mach 1 option is fantastic. But I can also give credit to the Camero
Just can't spell!!!
Just checked the September 2020 Pure Stock Drags a 69 Camaro SS396 with the 375hp rating and 4.10 gears did the 1/4 mile 12:42 @ 111.84 the 69 Mustang 428 SCJ with 4.10 gears did it in 12:85 @ 107.92 both were automatic cars. Both amazingly fast!
Both are absolute icons. No 1 person should have to make a choice. Find 1 or the other. You hit solid CAR gold....
Love them both. Have to go with the tough as nails looks of the Mustang.
FE powered Mustang for me all day long.
I thought we were going to see a drag race !!! Oh well, still a good comparison regardless. Both cars are great looking inside and out. It would be a hard choice if I had to choose which one I wanted. Great video and
Merry Christmas everyone!
The blue hubs & cover caps on the Camaro killed it's appearance! I don't remember seeing many like that. Where's the Rally Package or whatever it was called with the cool rims?
Mustang has more style. Camaro is like a bulldog.
PJAvenger actually i compare this camero to the 70s comet
I really enjoy all of your Muscle car vids ! Great Cars . I’ll take the Mustang lol!
With those aluminum head and intake options, it's the Camaro all day.
Great video, Kevin!!
Mustang fan all the way . You can never beat the original car that started it all
If there were no mustang, there would be no Camaro to compete with it
I'll give you pointers for the Mustang creating the pony car genre, but the Camaro perfected it.
UB3R_M4X1MU5 yeah but the mustang didn’t look cool till the Camaro came out.
The 65 and 66 mustang looked very girly
I believe its well accepted that the 428 cobra jet made about 415-420 hp and the 396/L89 was good for 405-410 hp but was lighter motor. Thanks.
Agreed, even the ford factory cj intake was cast iron,
The 396 is lighter due to the aluminum intake and heads but a typical 396 is heavier than a 428 CJ.
Once again, the 428 in stock trime is 355-360HP at the flywheel.
I like both these cars. The Mustang is better looking in my opinion. I worked on a General Motors Assembly line for fourteen years. "I LIKE ANYTHING MADE IN THE GOOD OLD USA!"
both nice cars my first time i was in a big block muscle car was a 70 mach 1 mustang 428 talk about pushed back in the seat wow nice to see them both thanks for the show
Both are vary nice but I’ll have to go with the mustang gorgeous car!
Both cars are really nice but it's MUSTANG all day every day for me.
Both awesome !! Love the head to head !! Kinda like 2 muscle car of the weeks' in 1 !!
Tough choice, but I would need to go with the Camaro. Always liked the Camaro ever since I rode in Dave Bruiley’s 1967 Camaro with a 327 in it.
I had a 69 mach1 351 Windsor. Looked just like this one but it was Gulfstream Aqua.
Out of all the cars I've owned that's the only one I regret getting rid of.
I would take the Mustang over the Camaro any day.
Absolutely awesome cars!!
Love them both. Wish the Camaro had better exhaust tips however. I was just a college kid in 1984 and stopped at a gas station in Cleveland since there was a 1969 SS 396 4 speed convertible for sale in Marina blue. A group of bearded tough guys in the gas station told me it was more money than I had, and I asked how much and they gave me a crazy high number that floored me... $6,000, Wish I could go back in time.
Kevin, that was mighty nice of you
to loan them your personal vehicles for this video.
I would go for the Mustang, its on #2 at my list... #1 is a 68-70 Dodge Charger ofcourse. :)
Charger R/T 440 6pack year 1969 I had one sure kicking myselve now for ever getting rid of her .. how sad ..
Great video, as always. Both cars are great and I'd be very proud to own either one. I love the Mustang and Fairlane, but Ford needed better heads on the production FE engines.
This feels just like when my 2 sons asked me which one of them is my favorite. I just smiled at them both and walked away lol...
I'm a Mustang guy, favorite is a 71 Boss 351, then 69' Boss 429.
That is definitely a nice Camaro as well. I like the 60's & 70's cars in general.
Mustang for sure but in 69 both were badass
Both are awesome. Just lean more to the Camaro. Always wanted a SS/RS big block
yup. always been the prettier and better sounding car. Plus the fact that in SoCal you can't go on a drive and see a mustang at every corner, it just robs all the specialness and coolness from the car.
I would have loved either one and still would. I turned 16 in 1969 and drooled over both of these cars.
Love both!! I unfortunately do not like 4th and 5th gen Camaros. Awesome video!!
