Can you name the year and make?

Back in the 60s this was one of American Muscle Cars. What really made this car special was the packing. A flat black scooped hood was standard as were side stripes along with a flip-open gas cap. Combined with the new styling of the fastback, with its built in side scoops and ducktail rear spoiler, this made the car look like it was going 100 mph even when it was standing still. Opting for the Ram Air package gave you one of the industry’s first shaker hoods. The air scoop was mounted directly to the carburetor.

This 1969 Ford Mustang Mach 1 has a 390 ci V-8 engine with 320 hp, C 6 auto transmission and a nine bolt posi rear end. It was completely restored in California by Michael Cabral.
