Information about the template:
The Ford Mustang was successfully introduced in April 1964 as a sporty pony car to attract younger buyers to Ford products. After several years of development, Ford saw the need to create powerful Mustangs to compete with GM and their launch of the Chevrolet Camaro and Pontiac Firebird.
The 1969 Ford Mustang had a number of performance-oriented model names and engines. Six factory Mustang models were available (GT, Boss 302, Boss 429, Shelby GT350, Shelby GT500 and Mach 1).
All first generation Mach 1 models feature body code 63C on the door plate. The Mach 1 started with a V8-powered SportsRoof body and added looks and performance enhancements. The 1970 body featured twin-beam headlights, the side scoops behind the doors were removed, revised bucket seats, deep sports wheel covers as well as new side and rear badging. The stripes were the main visual differences. The 1970 model year Ford used the Windsor 2v engine on some earlier production cars up to the new 351 cu in (5.8 L) Cleveland (351C) V8 in either 2V (for use with 2-venturi carbs) or 4V (for use with 4 exclusively -venturi carbs versions were used). The 351C 4V (code M) engine featured 11.0:1 compression and produced 300 bhp (224 kW; 304 PS) at 5400 rpm. This new engine incorporated elements taken from the Ford 385 series and Boss 302 engines, notably the multi-angle combustion chambers with slanted valves and thin-wall casting technology.
