1969 Ford Mustang Mach 1 'Hitman' Kicks Off Killer Classic Recreations Offerings
1,000-hp turnkey car leads a range of monstrous Mach 1's.
The same way a plaque or a small statue might commemorate the signing of an important treaty, Classic Recreations created the 1969 Ford Mustang Mach 1 to commemorate a new licensing deal. The Yukon, Oklahoma-based company already had licensing deals with Ford to build the Mustang Boss 302 and Boss 429. After signing a new pact to make 1969 and 1970 Mach 1 turnkey restorations, CR took the customer commission that resulted in this Mach 1, dubbed "Hitman." It started with a genuine 1969 Mach 1 body, although CR will use modern, Ford-licensed shells at customer request. CR's standard Mach 1 comes with a 345-horsepower, 5.0-liter Coyote V8. Hitman, with a name to live up to, twin-turbocharges that engine to 1,000 hp.
