AutoHunter Spotlight: 1969 Mustang Coupe

Rarity granted by a 351 four-barrel and four-speed manual

-

Featured on AutoHunter, the online auction platform driven by ClassicCars.com, is this 1969 Mustang coupe that was built with the rare combination of 351 Windsor four-barrel and four-speed transmission. The seller has had this unusual Mustang in his possession for 32 years. Features include chrome Torq-Thrust wheels, Hurst shifter, center console and modern stereo system. Finished in red over black vinyl interior, this Mustang comes with a Marti Report that verifies its pedigree, owner’s manual and a clear title.

The body was repaired and refinished in Guards Red 10 years ago. Features include non-functional hood scoop with integrated turn signals, color-keyed sport mirrors with a driver-side manual remote, fender-mounted antenna and locking gas cap. The seller states the paint is nearly perfect.

A set of new 17-inch American Racing Torq-Thrust wheels is wrapped in new 245/45/17 front and 255/45/17 rear BFGoodrich g-Force Sport tires.

A new vinyl interior, dashboard and other complementary equipment were installed approximately seven years ago. Equipment includes a black three-spoke Grant steering wheel, AM/FM/CD stereo, and center console featuring a Hurst shifter, storage compartment and cup holders.

The instrument panel consists of a 120-mph speedometer, 8,000-rpm tachometer and gauges for the fuel level and coolant temperature. The odometer reads 48,113 miles, though the seller says it’s flipped over to 148,113.

The reportedly numbers-matching 290-horsepower “M-code” 351ci four-barrel was rebuilt 25,000 miles ago is hooked to a wide-ratio four-speed manual. Engine bay features include chrome valve covers, aluminum intake manifold, chrome air cleaner and aluminum radiator. The Windsor small-block breathes through a combination of Hedman Hedders and Flowmaster mufflers.

This Mustang is equipped with an independent front suspension and solid nine-inch rear axle. Power front discs with slotted rotors and rear drums handles the braking chores. The original brake lines were replaced with stainless steel units approximately seven years ago.
