Notice the hood vents on that 71 Mach..

Looks a bit familiar to the new hood, at least I think.

Typically Ford doesn't bring classic versions of cars unless they're going to compare it. IE the 2015 Detroit show had a 65 GT350R and a GT40 Mk2. Both the new GT350R and the Ford GT debuted at that show.

Although I love the shaker on my Mach 1, I think the NACA ducts on the 71 would look awesome on the new body style. Please Ford make them functional!

Wow...yeah....Ford does everything with a purpose. Having that old school Mach1 is NOT a coincidence.....Chicago Auto Show is a big show to...this should be good.

I fear for my bank account. I'm gonna have to stay away from the dealership if they make another one. Funny that I'm sitting in the dealer waiting room as I type this.

Good grief......my heart skipped a beat. This is awesome :ford:


If I can be picky though.....whilst the (argent?) dark silver looks good on a classic, an S550 Mach 1 needs black accents :headbang:

Well the classic Mach's had multiple color options for their stripes..

For example, in 1970 the black highlights were the default, however white hood and bumper accents were an option. However just over 1,000 of the some 60,000+ Mach's had them.

That would explain it, while keeping with what I've come to believe. The pics posted above by lemers seem to corroborate it as well...

Well Ford still chose a mach 1 to be auctioned and put it on display at their booth. It might mean something or nothing at all but it sure got us talking! :ford:
