This 1972 Ford Mustang Mach 1 (chassis 2F05H219741) has been owned by the current seller for 24 years and has always been in California. He is the second owner, and he bought from original owner in Los Angeles area, where it was sold when new. The car is all original apart from some engine performance parts, and retains the factory 351 Cleveland V8 and automatic transmission. The car came well optioned from the factory with air-conditioning and factory Ram Air, and the factory window sticker and owner’s card are included. The car runs but needs a battery, and the registration is on non-operational status. It is now available in Petaluma, California for $7,000.
The seller believes that the car has been re-painted at some point, but is very faded now. He says that the majority of the body is in good straight shape, and a small body dent was done to the left rear corner by his brother-in-law. The lower front valance is also fairly bent. The body does have numerous surface spots of rust from outside storage in for the last 10 years. Only one has full metal penetration according to the seller, and many are shown in the gallery.

The shot below shows half of the window sticker (the other half is in the gallery) and the original dealer warranty ID card. The options list at left verifies the 351 2V V8 and the Ram Air induction, and unusual combination. Original delivery was to Northridge, California.
The interior is complete but both front seats are torn and the carpet needs replacing. The folding rear seat is in good shape but the plastic side and rear panels behind it will need replaced due to sun damage. The car came from the factory with AM/FM radio and power steering.
The engine was rebuilt in 1998, and mildly modified. It has oversized pistons, ported heads, roller tip rockers, a mild cam, Edelbrock manifold + Holley 4-barrel carburetor. The water pump is an aluminum Milodon unit and it has a deep sump oil pan, dual exhaust with Dynomax mufflers, MSD-6A ignition, and a MSD coil. Even if we weren’t going to restore the exterior, we’d restore the engine bay to its proper satin black. The fact that these did not come from the factory with a color matching the exterior makes them much easier for the amateur restorer. Clean up the wiring, hide or remove the MSD unit, and relocate the horn to the proper position while you are at it.
The trunk includes some misc components, but the decal on the underside of the trunk lid is likely a sign that the paint there is original.
