Gary Goudie's 1970 Ford Mustang 428 Cobra Jet SportRoof
Moonshine Mustang?
Most performance-minded Mustang buyers ordered a Boss 302, a Boss 429, or a Mach 1 in 1970. “My thoughts are, originally, that it was probably a moonshine car,” Gary Goudie says of his plain SportsRoof with not much more than a 428 Cobra Jet with ram air backed by a C6 automatic and a set of 3.00s in a Traction-Lok differential. He has not been able to uncover much of the car’s history. However, this deduction does make some sense. “The reason I say that is Spruce Pines, North Carolina, is where it was originally purchased. Dark Ivy Green Metallic, 428 Cobra Jet, 3.00 rearend — somebody wanted to get down the road fast.”
