Unique opportunity to acquire The Ultimate Pro Touring Mustang Fastback
Do your diligence and see for yourself. Mustangs like this rarely come to market as the market is saturated with
lesser quality builds and bad Eleanor clones.
The real deal is right here! A Top build is the sum of the best components and the skilled craftsman behind it.
The Ultimate Pro Touring Mustang FastbackThese are bold statements but considering the offerings on the market over the past 5 years we feel this build
clearly justifies our claim. Cars of this caliber RARELY come up for sale as owner’s commission top builders all
over the USA to build their dream car and they sit in private collections for many years. Some of the wildest Pro
Tour Mustangs built have had blank check funding totaling up to $700,000. The last incredible 69/70 Mustang
Fastback to be sold to the public was the Ring Brothers Dragon, which sold for $385,000+ buyers premium and sales
tax 2 years ago in Scottsdale. The final cost was well over $400,000 for that killer car and there hasn’t been
another 69/70 fastback built to that that level since. The 69/70 Mustang fastbacks are becoming so coveted because
of their historic Trans Am roots and their bad ass styling as buyers today are enthusiastically seeking these
models built with modern amenities and just enough custom flare to make it unique and more enjoyable. If you have
ever driven a stock 69/70 Mustang even a Boss 429 they are nothing to write home about and are unsafe in their
handling and braking on our congested public roads. This Pro Touring Ford Mustang Mach 1 can be shown nationally at
any Goodguys event with honors due to the level of craftsmanship and detail throughout. It can compete in the
Optima Street Car Challenge and any SCCA Autocross and Street Machine of the Year events and be eligible for
vintage racing in specified classes. The Mach 1 was originally built for a private VIP client of ours who
meticulously demanded the best so we designed and developed this car over the course of 2 years. The car is
properly sorted and turn key. The brake system and suspension were developed by the leaders at Detroit Speed while
leading suspension engineers at JRI, sorted and fine tuned the dampening and spring rates for months. The full
sequential 8 throttle body 427 engine is so fine tuned you can drive it in 3 hour long traffic easier than a new
2016 Mustang and the monster 600+hp 427 Stack Injected motor runs cooler than the modern modular 5.0. This car not
only looks incredible but it drives unlike any other custom built Mustang in the country and will out handle any
other Pro touring car on the market with the right skilled driver behind the wheel and planted in the Porsche 997
turbo bucket seats that were custom tailored for this car. This Ford Mustang Mach 1 Pro Touring is a balanced and
well-executed masterpiece. Tenaciously fabricated and built with precision by true artisans and performance
engineers with the goal of creating the ultimate modified Mustang fastback in the world. Not overdone with shaved
door handles and unreliable and jarring airbag suspension or cheap Billet wheels. This car was built with style,
luxury and performance, This car is the perfect mix of original classic 69/70 Mustang styling with the proper
modern touches juxtaposed perfectly to create the masterpiece that it is. The best components and partners were
instrumental in this build to truly make it spectacular.
What stated with an original September 1969 built Mach 1 according to the Marti Report was meticulously transformed
into a work of art after over 2500 hours of true artisan craft was dedicated towards this build. The parts cost on
this project was over $150,000 not including all labor. The rust free original donor car was $52,000. This build
cost the owner well over the current asking price. Do the math and realize a top tier build does not come cheap but
starting with a rust bucket and inferior bolt on parts never makes any sense in the end. This Mach 1 wears all
original sheet-metal and you know how rare this is. The body modifications are so subtle while we retained the true
classic lines of the original design by enhancing just the right areas without going overboard on the theme which
usually takes away from the styling. Our parent division ACS Garage, a team of highly trained custom car builders
and performance engineers who have built multi million dollar cars over the past 25 years, exotic, muscle and
Concour level restorations . ACS Garage partnered with the BEST vendors in the industry to make this project a
reality. This car was built to drive, handle and perform beyond the levels of most custom car builds. The majority
of components on this build are one-off. We turned to the most dedicated racing circle of industry experts in the
world by using Nascar engineers and companies to offer the best of the best in performance parts. The level of key
components that were designed, engineered and perfected for this car all come from Nascar country.
The vehicle has garnered worldwide appeal because car enthusiasts know it was built right. Our partnering vendors
still say it is one of their favorite builds as they regularly blast the car on social media. Detailed top to
bottom from the meticulously polished stainless steel screws and hardware throughout to every square inch of the
custom patterned and tailored Italian leather interior that would be at home in any Hermes workshop. The body is
straight as an arrow and the black paint reflections are nothing but breathtaking, the photos speak for themselves.
The car can be shown with mirrors under it’s gleaming skin as all of the hardware is polished and all other
components expertly painted or powder coated to perfection. The exhaust system itself is a work of stainless steel
sculptural art.
There are a ton of junk boxes on the market these days and if anyone is knowledgeable you can pick those cars out
quite easily. All you need to do is see their spec sheets and look up the costs of those parts versus what we are
disclosing on this build to see the drastic differences. There are even cars on the market priced well over ours
that are running a carbureted engine or a glorified fox body donor 302 and some using a REPOP body shell from
Taiwan with no authentic Ford serial numbers for title and registration. This Mach 1 has serious mass appeal inside
and out, the best parts you can source and some of the most amazing custom car talent thrown in for good measure.
We have over a 1000 photos and support docs documenting the entire build which will be included in the sale along
with testing and development media, software files for different fuels and driving conditions, spare parts and
detailed support for the next owner on set up, alignment, braking. Full disclosure of all build costs and parts
costs will be given to the new owner.

NHTSA opens investigation into Ford Explorer PI brakes
Wed, 27 Aug 2014This year more than most, it's pleasant when we can string together a few days without word of an automaker or the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration announcing a bunch of new recalls. It's seemingly been a little quiet on this front lately (barring a spider-related Suzuki issue revealed early today), but now we have word of the government safety agency opening a Preliminary Evaluation into the 2013 Ford Explorer Police Interceptor, a probe that could potentially affect an estimated 20,000 vehicles.
The issue being investigated concerns failures of the front brake hose on the vehicle that show "small splits in the hoses near the body side ferrule of the hose assembly," according to the agency, and the issue could result in longer stopping distances. The feds have reports of 13 malfunctions affecting 11 Explorer units. However, it's important to note that all of the incidents come from a single, unnamed metropolitan police fleet that operates 46 of them. According to The Detroit News, the failures generally took place between December and July.
NHTSA is investigating further to find if this is a more widespread issue than just this one fleet. Ford spokesperson Kelli Felker confirmed to us, "We are cooperating with NHTSA on this investigation, as we always do." Scroll down to read the agency's report.
Leno drives Henry Ford II's all-original '52 Ferrari 212 Barchetta
Tue, 17 Jun 2014The story of the relationship between Henry Ford II and Enzo Ferrari is absolutely fascinating. The two great men of the auto industry had what appeared to be a burgeoning friendship until Ferrari pulled out of a deal to sell his company to Ford in the '60s. The latest car featured in Jay Leno's Garage is a 1952 Ferrari 212 Barchetta that tells the very beginnings of that story.
This Prancing Horse was a gift to Ford from Enzo when the two companies were first thinking about merging, according to the curator of the Petersen Automotive Museum. Ferrari really wanted to show off its best so instead of the 212's normal V12, this car was fitted with the larger 2.7-liter unit from a Ferrari 225. The car has been almost unaltered since then. It still wears its original paint, and it's tires date back to 1954.
The great thing about the Petersen is that unlike a lot of auto museums, the people there actually drive the cars and keep them in working order. Once on the road with Leno behind the wheel, this Ferrari really sings. Unfortunately, he can't open it up too much because the 60-year-old tires really hold things back. Scroll down to watch this amazing piece of automotive history and learn it's possible effect on the styling of the original Ford Thunderbird.
Are you Ford's next Bullitt Mustang? [w/poll]
Thu, 27 Mar 2014Ford has a long history of offering special editions of its legendary Mustang. One of the most vaunted of those trim packages, though, has only been offered twice. The first time was in 2001, and then again in 2008. Yes, we're talking about the Bullitt.
Named for the infamous Dark Highland Green Mustang Fastback driven by Steve McQueen in the 1968 cop melodrama Bullitt, the car was famous for not just its pilot, but the high-speed chase it took part in during the movie. Now, we think we have images of the next Bullitt.
According to our spy photographers, the paint is a "dead-ringer" for the Dark Highland Green that has signified these special edition Mustangs. While we're inclined to agree, it's also worth pointing out that this shade looks very similar to one of the 2015's other new colors, Guard. We've yet to see one on the road (let alone in such dreary conditions), so it's tough to say for certain.
