The Vicari Auction Company will offer a rare 1970 Ford Mustang
Mach I Super Cobra Jet (Lot S373) during their 16th annual Biloxi
Auction, Oct. 12-13, 2012, at the Mississippi Coast Coliseum &
Convention Center in Biloxi, Miss.
In 1970, there were 50 Super Cobra Jet Mach I Mustangs produced with
the Bright Gold Metallic paint sported by this vehicle. Of those, two
were produced with a 4.30 Traction-Lok Rear Axle and only one – this
Mach I offered by Vicari – was ordered with Power Front Disc Brakes.
The Mach I Mustang
features a 428 CID 4V Super Cobra Jet engine with a four speed close
ratio manual transmission and drag pack. Other options include AM radio,
competition suspension, color-keyed racing mirrors, console-mounted
shift lever, rim blow-deluxe steering wheel, instrument gauges, rocker
panel moldings, rear deck lid tape stripe, deep dish sports wheel covers
and color-keyed carpeting.
“This muscle car is a Mustang collector’s dream come true as it’s not
only very rare, but it has been maintained in museum-like quality,”
said Pete Vicari, president of Vicari Auction. “In 1970, there were only
857 Mach I vehicles equipped with the 428 Super Cobra Jet/Drag Pack.”
The Mustang Mach I Super Cobra Jet will join more than 400 classic and muscle cars crossing the block at Vicari’s Biloxi Auction, which takes place during the Cruisin’ The Coast event, Oct. 7-14, 2012.
