Chris' 1969 Mach 1 Re-Do!

A couple of months ago I met Chris and interviewed him about his S code 69 Mach 1, but we did that interview at night. It really didn't do justice to the car. So Chris invited me to his place and here are the results, a "re-do" interview with him about this amazing and beautiful 69 Mach 1. This car might be as close to perfection as you can get, a true labor of love! More details and a test drive here!

Brian U shot a great video Perfect car day and most of all the company Thanks and had fun driving around Vegas for a couple of hours

Thank you for your time and beautiful car!

[@789morton]

Wow such a beautiful car, well put together. I like how cautious he is with it. 👍

[@louieflash7190]

The car looks great. The one suggestion I would make is to get the correct dual exhaust tips. It was one of the first things I did to mine when I bought it in 1986. The single exhaust on each side seems unfinished IMO.

[@chrisschaub8810]

Thanks U are correct

She is an absolute beauty! Sounds great. One of the few hiccups, is that steering wheel is incorrect.

Yes she is! Small detail...

Is that red paint the original code candy apple red? I am about ready to paint my factory red 1970 Mach1 and have been considering painting it a newer brighter red. But your cars red looks just right. It is a tough call.

[@carcollectingfortherestofus]

Chris, can you confirm???

[@chrisschaub8810]

Yes That is the correct paint color dictated by the Vin tag

[@chrisschaub8810]

In 1969 that was Ford's version of candy apple red My painter was phenomenal

[@carcollectingfortherestofus]

@@chrisschaub8810 Thanks Chris!

[@TD-ce5ru]

Thanks. Your T code candy apple red is vibrant and really pops, unlike many I see . It is a hard decision for me to decide between code T red, or the newer reds like race red, ect. The unique thing about my 70 Mach 1 is that it has factory red interior. The Marti says only 47 red with red interior. And I know why because the Vermillion red interior does not match the darker red exterior. The red interior goes well with calipso coral exterior. That is why I am leaning toward painting it a Vermillion red. Another hard decision is whether to paint the stripes under or over the clear coat. I think I am going with a matte black over the clear. I am not going to do a rotisserie restoration like I did on my 65' fastback. I just want to get this one back on the road. Your car is motivating me to get going on mine.

[@user-lt5ub1vu7d]

First off, absolutely gorgeous car but.... Dude has a 120 grand in it. Well the hood black, the sports slats and spoilers way too glossy. Aftermarket exhaust well OK but it should have the quad tips on it. I like the audio upgrades but that cheap ass steering wheel!? Carb also incorrect, no double pump not stock. Beautiful car indeed. Wish mine was that nice but a guy don't have that kinda dough! Not hating but for that kind of investment.
