I completely agree with you that 1969 Mustang is the best design ever!!! That’s why I love mine.
Rey... I feel that 1969 AND 1970 are BOTH THE BEST BODY DESIGN for Mustangs
they are the best 👌😎
67 - 70 the prettiest mastangs they made.
Lost my dad in January and now I’m putting together the 69 fastback he got as a project (running no accidents, one owner, almost no rust, and it’s been garaged 13 years after we took it apart for body work. I’ve added more parts and once it’s done all the electrical and mechanical parts will either be rebuilt original or new repro parts. Dad already got a complete Thrustmaster long tube headers exhaust kit, suspension kit, and I added an Edelbrock manifold and carb and plan to switch out the stock 3 speed manual for a C6 automatic. Should be in for paint and body reassemble next month, got the money need to find the right place. It’s all there now just time and patience.
Only thing neither of us liked is the Gawd awful original yellow paint job. Not sure which color my dad was leaning towards but I’m going all black as the interior as far as the seats and door panels are still in good shape. The carpet and headliner I also have ready to go in. Adding in AC too, can’t drive it all sweaty now.
May he Rest In Peace. I hope you can get her all together and buttoned up so you can enjoy it! Lots of sentimental value I am sure!
They may be faster, but never cooler! hell yes!!
That’s right!
Hell yea
My favorite version of the Mustang.
That’s my buddy’s car! We love that car so much and drive it pretty often. Always turns heads and definitely gets a lot of love!
Probably forever one of the most cool cars I have ever driven doing this hobby. And it is my number one in Mustang styling! I still feel absolutely blessed I was given the opportunity. I’ll never forget it!
@@TheDutchTexan hi mate I own a very similar car in Acapulco blue in Australia. Need to attach a camera and upload my escapades...meaning it's damn hard to go out and be LOW KEY. lol
It's a beauty.
This is the best review of Mustang 1969 Mach1 I've seen so far. Think everyone can see your true passion to this cars.
Thank you so much! I enjoyed the heck out of it. It continues to be a dream car for me. The fact I could drive and review one? Truly a dream come true.
I will literally bring this car inside of my house
I had a '69 Mach 1, Royal Maroon. I agree, best looking Mustang ever. God, I wished I had that car back.
Just the perfect lines. Gorgeous from every angle! What engine / transmission combo did you have?
Wow this is one very rare car you got to review. It drives so well for its age, and it looks amazing. What a sweet car to own awesome vid as always!
Rare indeed, I never see them! Glad I got the opportunity, I will cherish this one till the end of my days!
Great review and channel! Thanks for driving the car hard - how it should be driven. Keep up the great work!
I appreciate it. The real MVP is the owner who let me drive it and get on it!
I falling in love with this car when I watched "Diamond are forever"
movie, Driven thru Las Vegas streets by sir Sean Connery (RIP 007)
RIP sir Connery indeed, I always thought he was the best Bond. My favorite movie was "You Only Live Twice". The car in "Diamonds are Forever" is actually a 1971 Mach 1 by the way. Full disclosure: I also love that body style. The '69 Mach 1 is my all-time favorite though!
@@TheDutchTexan Correct on the Diamonds Are Forever Mach1. Had a Bond Friend that contended that it was a 1969 Mach1. I own a Wimbledon White,351 Windsor as my first car and have owned it for 51 years! Cost me 1,850 bucks back in January 4,1971. This guy can't say Mock 1 it's not MACK 1. Too young to know the difference.
Your review of your 2005 GT is great, but this one is awesome.
Had a Redfire 2007 GT myself. Loved it.
Hands down one of the most awesome cars I have been able to review. I’d review classics all day every day if I could. The soul of those cars is real.
Very nice! A friend's 70 Mach 1 was the first Mustang I had ever driven, after growing up riding in my dad's 65 fastback. Such a fun car to drive. Now I have my former daily driver 87 5.0 LX and 16 GT current daily driver. I just really like how the new ones carry forward the lines of the 65-70 fastbacks, but I also need one of the classics too! Good luck on getting a classic yourself!
Thank you, I was honored to be able to drive it. It is a long time goal to get there and all things once started with a desire and a dream. I hope to realize that dream in the coming years.
Ergonomic is the word you were looking for. You are correct, ‘69 & ‘70 Fastback Mustang.🤘🏼The 1969 Mach 1 Set So Many World Records It Was Ridiculous.
That's it! And it is a wonderful machine, just can't beat the looks of it.
Fabulous!
What an awesome machine! Great video!
Thanks! I enjoyed driving it so much!
This color, the aculpulco blue and the gold...my absolute favorites for that car. Suh - weet.
I paid 1,650 for my 1969 mach 1 in 1972.I wish I had it back.It was one of the prettiest car's I ever had. That mach 1 over the top for FUN.👍👍👍👍👍
Sold my 70 Boss9 for $3,000 in 1973 ---- you wish????? Who knew?
Beautiful car, love it. My first Stang was a 69 fastback, 302 manual in Jade green. The S197 is my next favorite body. Soon looking for a 69.😁
Never heard it called a " Mac " 1 before 😂 cool video
Wow that is beautiful!! Awesome video. I hope the one we are working on over on my channel turns out half this good.
Yup, she's a beauty! It will go down as one of the most awesome cars I have driven in my life.
The Dutch Texan man I can only imagine. Can’t wait to take it for a rip!
Awesome video !
I have a 69 Mach1.
It’s the best looking car on the road when I’m out in it. I always get compliments when driving it. Definitely the best body on a classic mustang….1970 mustang comes in 2nd.
Thank you. I still feel lucky I was able to take it for a spin!
I bought a Mach 1 in 1969-$2,400 351 Cleveland 4 speed brand new . Best car ever. I now have a 69 390 cu red/white interior-4 speed air car. A real “head turner” best in show car. Loving life!!
I had a glimpse of that when I drove this one. You can’t beat a great classic!
Masterpiece!!!!
It is indeed! Feel so privileged to have been able to drive her!
Great video!
I appreciate it! It was a lot of fun!
Beautiful!
It is indeed!
My best friends dad had a 1969 Mustang Mach 1 and he use to take us out for drives when we were little so many, many years ago.
A beuthiful Ford Mustang! And it sounds amazing. I have a question, what exhaustsystem do you have? size, x- pipe or h- pipe. and what headers sit on the engine? I have a 1970 sportsroof on upgrade.
Grew up with them. Had driven them. They had a different feel that I loved driving them. I believe they all had autos though.
I did end up with a '67 HO Firebird 4 speed 4.11 that was just fun. I remember one time a guy told me my brake lights weren't
working and I had to tell him I didn't use the brakes, compression baby.
I use engine braking all the time in any manual car. It sounds better! Hahaha!
I too love 69 Mach 1s. In fact I love them so much I still have the one I bought new 51 years ago. 428 Super Cobra Jet, 4 speed 4.30 gear car. Drag raced in the 70s. High 11 second car with headers a cam and slicks. Restored 16 years ago to original condition. Now gas 33K miles on it. If your ever in Ohio swing by and you can take him for a ride.
I don’t know if I will ever make it to that state, but I would 100% take you up on that! Back then it probably was the fastest car on the block! (Heck, most cars don’t touch that today).
There will be one day I’m coming to the us and go to a junkyard just to see bits and pieces of them old mustangs (huge mustang lover here) and maybe be able to buy an old grill to take home to the Netherlands 🇳🇱 groetjes ! En geweldige video !
There are some cool junk yards around, but I think you’re going to be hard pressed to find any mustang related stuff from the 60’s. Most of that gets parted out quick. En bedankt voor het kijken!
I AGREE👍👍👍👍👍
Why were ur shoes off? Great video keep'em coming 🇺🇸
You are legit the first one to notice! The shoes I had on were interfering with the pedal setup, so I drove without them for convenience sake. It worked out great! I got skinnier shoes now that I use for driving. I should actually get some proper driving shoes now that I think about it...
Anyway, thank you for enjoying! I hope to do many more classics down the line. It is where my true passion lies!
I swapped a 351W into my 74 Bronco then I used Mustang parts from a 93 Mustang GT to fuel inject it. My mom drove a 68 fast back until she got pregnant with me, she had to sell it when she couldn't get behind the steering wheel. She blames me to this day haha. I would trade my boring BMW for this Mach1 any day.
Similar story to my wife. She had a Mustang GT/CS vert. She got pregnant and she was too close to the wheel. We traded it in for a fully loaded 2012 focus. That... Was a mistake...
@@TheDutchTexan Mustang to a Focus, the sacrifices you do for family! Funny enough, my wife and I are due in 1-2 days. Fortunately, I don't have anything fun to sacrifice at the moment. =)
@@chaleowin7732 congratulations, is it your first or have you had the experience already? And at least I didn't have to get rid of the 2005! That would have been a sad day!
@@TheDutchTexan Yep, our baby girl was born on Friday the 13th, woohoo. I'm a bit loopy from lack of sleep. She's our first and she's perfect. Selling the 05 would definitely had been a tragedy.
@@chaleowin7732 congratulations! My first was a girl, born on the 14th of February by her own accord (supposed to be induced on the 15th but she wanted out a day early). I remember those first days, the sleep deprivation is not to be underestimated for sure! And if it had to go it had to go. There would have been another for sure. Family > Cars!
Heaven on earth !.
From my perspective? Absolutely!
it pulls nicely ....
I have a Black Jade one...5 spd Tremec and 3.00:1 Rear....going to change that out to a 3.75:1 that should wake things up.
Leuke video deze auto is zoo vet
Zeker, een machtige wagen!
69 Mustang is my favorite year 💯🇺🇸
Same!
What can be sead about the ford mustang mach one. It is an american icon. My uncle purcashed a mach one in 1970, it was powered with a 302 automatic, shaker hood, dark metallic green with gold stripping, an automatic (to please my aunt). I personally loved that car and so did my causin johnny who by chance just got his driver's license's that summer. I remember, trips to lake michigan that summer as well. Great memorys.
Memories are the best thing about old cars. There is always a deep connection with cars like this one. The shaker hood is iconic as well!
Mach 1s came with a 302?
@@clubba1264 1971's did. The '69 - '70's had base 351's 2v's, so perhaps he mistook the base V8 engine for the common base engine everyone thinks of when talking about that era, the 302.
I love both generations muscle cars but this 69 mach 1 is fantastic
Who agrees with me?
You know I do! Hahaha!
Yea I know between old school cars and new their all fathers like sons
If money wasn't an option. This would be my dream car.
I have a 2013 Ford Mustang so I can't complain
It is my favorite body-style, closely followed by the 71-73's. I love my '05, but this does take the cake!
how much are these
Icon
If you use one word to describe a car like this... "Icon" would definitely be it!
Time to enjoy the cheap gas! Are you filming in San Antonio? Definitely the best body style by far.
I filmed this in the DFW area where I am based from. I’d love to expand someday though. But my TH-cam channel needs to grow a fair bit before that happens.
I like the old school Mustang more than the all new 2020 Mustang today
Yup, classics will always speak to the soul!
True that brother we may love new muscle cars today but we can't never forget about the old school because it mostly fun to drive
You mention wanting to get into a classic... I have a 69 mach1 for sale. Project car, needs to be built but is alot cleaner than the one im keeping.. comes with a storage unit full of parts to damn near build the thing twice over.
Mustangs are unfortunately way out of my range due to the popularity they (rightfully) enjoy so I won’t waste your time.
Hi guys I'm John from down under...Australia. I have a mach 1 Acapulco blue with 5sp tremec and Hurst shifter it's is the best. But a question.. I have AC..but didn't see it on that motor? Ps I to agree the 69 is the best
It has a vintage air system if I am correct. It worked great!
What color code m ? That would look good on my 2018 gt
Idk the color code but the name of the color should be Gulfstream Aqua I think
It is actually Silver Jade!
What is a "363 stroker"? It looks like a 351W. A .060" overbore would yield 364 c.i. without any stroking.
It's 302 based.
OMG! Try that with a 429!
This was a once in a lifetime opportunity! Would love to try a big block but I think the odds are stacked against us!
Dude you forgot to mention that this a 351 Cleveland ! ( Note the top radiator hose going into the block ,not the intake manifold ) which makes this Mach 1 WAY more cool ! That's why is sounds more deeper than the smaller valved 351 Windsor...
It’s a 363 stroker, the original engine is long gone! It was an automatic too when it was bought originally!
@@TheDutchTexan Sorry my bad, just noticed the valve cover bolt locations aren't correct for a Cleveland . So your saying the car has a stroker 302 to a 363 cu in motor . The 351 Windsor was the smallest motor Ford offered for the Mach 1 in 69. She sounds sweet ! Love MY 69 Mach as well !
I bought one same color and with 390 4 speed back in 1994 for 700 bucks need restoration bought some parts .
But one day I decided to sale it like a dumass for 14000.00 dollars.
I regretted every day. But I'm going to buy another one some day. The prices for one in good condition are up their.
At the time it made sense to sell it, don't feel bad man! I got a goal to get something classic myself as a channel project car. It won't be a Mustang probably, they are $$$ for sure! Parts on the other hand, are plentiful. Some of the other classics I have looked at are more rare, and parts are definitely harder to come by or simply don't exist.
This is the one john wick drives
Just to think these Mustangs were daily drivers now they are classic show cars
They were what the new mustang is now. Just a new car. Only time will tell if a car becomes a classic show car down the line. This one? 100%!
Hey man I’m in Love with this car are you willing to sell it because would love to own a 1969 Ford Mustang Mach 1
It isn’t mine, but I can safely say the owner will never part with it. It’s in the family for 3 generations now.
Dang do you know anyone that would sell or trade this car
I was 18 years old in 1969 working in a Ford dealer in the wash rack. One day a portable parking lot pulled in with a brand new load of 69 Mach 1s. I about pissed my pants all the people in the office came out to look at the new Mach 1s And were in awe at the new body style
I can only imagine what it was like back then! Every year there would be changes to a car back then. 1969 was a golden year for the Mustang for sure. The styling alone!
It was a great time for just about everything. I’m glad I was the age I was during that time especially concerning the cars.I have a 70 Mach 1 that I bought when I was 22 and I still own it today and I’m now 70. It’s been a great car and runs like a Swiss watch. It’s all original and Has not been restored. I Have babied it for the last48 years
That is amazing. What engine / trans does it have? And what color?
@@TheDutchTexan
351 Cleveland four-speed traction loc 3:50 Gears. Shaker hood scoop louvers spoilers And the color is medium lime metallic. This car looks brand new from 10 feet away that’s how good I’ve kept it all these years
@@lorenzomaximo1818 all the nice options, very unique color too! I hope you get to take her out every once and a while! Does she see any car shows at all?
I will have to tell you that the 69 is OK. The finest Mustang Fastback was the original first year fastback. Find yourself a 65 Mustang 2+2 or GT and you will see Big Daddy where it all began. My favorite is the 68 GT fastback. Yep, the same car that is called the Bullitt Mustang, you know what I am talking about? And in the Highland Green or the Ocean Deep Blue. These cars don't have to have a stroker engine nor the 5 speed Tremek. The Borg Warner top loader 4 speed was cool enough for me.
I actually reviewed a 1965 fastback! It was an auto and no where near as quick as this one but still all smiles. And I know Bullitt, one of the best car chases in any movie. When it down comes to MOPARS the 1968 charger reigns supreme because of it.
And sure, they don't need to have more power and drivability. But it sure as heck makes them more fun! I am glad we don't all like the same stuff. It would be boring if we did.
Need's different exhaust though, this sounds like a typical Flowmaster exhaut EVERYBODY and their brother has now days. A car like this needs cherry bombs or straight pipes
I actually love the sound of the car. It's perfect, and the acceleration run is just perfection in my mind. Straight pipes would be way too loud. But this is what I love about the car community. Everyone has a different opinion, and that is how we keep it fresh!
John Wick brought me here.
Yup... Although man that smash scene hurt to watch!
Is car for sale I’m interested if is
I doubt that car will ever leave that family!
@@TheDutchTexan okay but if ever want to sell I’m interested and I’m in west Texas!! Btw great video
Thank you! I enjoyed the opportunity to drive this one. So much so that it still is my favorite experience!
I don’t blame you that was best69 Mach 1 I saw and car is very fast and cool
FOR GOD SO LOVED THE WORLD THAT HE GAVE HIS ONLY BEGOTTEN SON THAT WHOSOEVER SHALL BELIEVETH UNTO HIM SHALL NOT PERISH BUT HAVE EVERLASTING LIFE
JOHN 3:16
Dream my car either a 68 or 69 , How can I ship to europe tho
There are importers all across Europe, so I am sure you can find one!
@@TheDutchTexan yeah but can't go there to test it tho
Yeah, you would need to work with a reputable business and you never know until you have the car in hand. Sometimes it might be best to buy a local car. It’s going to cost more, but you’ll see what you get with your own eyes and can have it inspected by the people you chose.
@@TheDutchTexan There is no cars like this on where I Live , rarely you get these cars in Europe
@@TheDutchTexan BTW I have the funds to buy the car but just need a trusted Shipping option
📝
I am confused...
El sueño de muchos tener un pura sangre
(traductor de google) ¡Estoy totalmente de acuerdo!
What an uncomfortable car
Looks nice, though
That's not a mach 1 it's a boss 429
Did you not see the pictures of the car in the video? Very clearly a Mach 1. Those pictures were from back when it was brand new.
your a funny fella to young to realise?....when did u realise ford has all ways been the best.....hahaha
The moment I saw Mad Max...

How can you review a non-original car?
By reviewing it?
@@TheDutchTexan That would be like reviewing The Godfather after someone reedited it their way. It's not the Godfather anymore. That car would have driven way different when new.
It is a review on THIS 1969 Mach 1. I don't know why you can't understand that.
