Lot details

Year: 1972
Make: Ford
Model: Mustang Mach 1
Registration: GNT 112M
Chassis No: 2F05Q177829
Odometer: 331

Introduced for 1969, the Mach 1 became one of the most recognisable performance models within the Mustang range. The larger body introduced for 1971 gave it an altogether more imposing presence, with a long bonnet and sweeping SportsRoof profile. For 1972, the Q-code 351 Cobra Jet offered buyers a desirable combination of Cleveland V8 power and four-barrel carburation, maintaining the Mustang's muscle-car credentials as emissions requirements increasingly influenced American engine specifications.

This example's chassis number identifies it as a 1972 Mach 1 built at Ford's Dearborn plant and originally specified with the Q-code 351 cubic-inch Cobra Jet V8. Its factory Mach 1 identity and Cobra Jet specification provide particular interest for enthusiasts. The car is fitted with automatic transmission, while an Edelbrock air cleaner and branded rocker covers provide individual touches beneath the bonnet.

Presented in red with contrasting black upholstery, GNT 112M carries the distinctive Mach 1 side graphics, black bonnet treatment and twin bonnet scoops. Front and rear spoilers reinforce its sporting appearance, complemented by Magnum 500-style wheels and Cooper Cobra tyres with raised white lettering. Inside, the left-hand-drive cabin features high-backed front seats, a centre console with automatic selector and clock, and supplementary instruments set into the wood-effect dashboard trim.

First registered in the United Kingdom on 9th November 1973, this Mustang has remained with our vendor as registered keeper since 12th January 2013. This lengthy custodianship forms an appealing part of its recent history. The odometer currently displays 331, which is recorded as a reading only.

Purchased for a large and prominent collection, this example has been housed indoors throughout its time in the collection, regularly maintained by the custodian's mechanics and taken to local shows annually. The vendor describes the Mustang, along with the other cars offered from his collection, as running and driving for its next owner.

With its factory Q-code origins, automatic transmission and unmistakable Mach 1 appearance, this established collection car offers an appealing opportunity to acquire one of the most distinctive first-generation Mustangs. Consigned by Mathew Priddy
