MUSTANG GRANDE and MUSTANG GT For Sale
MUSTANG GRANDE and MUSTANG GT For Sale
SOLD
The Mustang Grande was basically a luxury package much like the GT option was a sports package
Another noticeable feature of the 1969 Ford Mustang was its quad round headlights. It's the first and only time they would be featured on a standard production Mustang.
The VIN number, in addition to being located on the driver's door, was also attached to the instrument panel, and visible through the windshield, there were additional identification tags in the right rear taillight lenses and engine tags situated in the engine bay.
VERY IMPORTANT : Both vehicles have their respective, original riveted 3 x “body tags” (VIN No’s, etc.), drivers’ handbook & internal instruction guides (we can even supply you with the individual manufacturing numbers of the respective seats !) and have a few boxes of spares & wheels included in the deal.
The cars are totally original unrestored examples having only two owners in their history.
According to our research only two “GT’s” & approximately five /six “Grandé’s” are currently available in South Africa.
WE ARE SELLING THE CARS AS A SET AND IF YOU TAKE INTO CONSIDERATION THAT THEY WILL BE TURNING 50 YEARS OLD IN TWO YEARS TIME THIS IS DEFINITELY AN INVESTMENT FOR THE FUTURE NOT TO MENTION A PEACE OF TRUE AMERICAM MUSCLE CAR HISTORY.
No doubt, 1969 was the year of power and performance for the Ford Mustang.
Mustang Grande 1969
Body Code: 65E: Hardtop, Standard Interior, Bucket Seat, Grande
302 cub. Inch; 210 h-p V8 Winsor Motor C-4 Auto Gear Box
The 1969 Ford Mustang Grande was marketed to the buyer more concerned with luxury, elegance and dramatic Spanish music.
It was all about Grandeur. The Mustang Grande’ came only in hardtop and it offered 45 options which were geared towards the upscale market and included interior upgrades such as; "Comfort weave" hopsack upholstery, faux wood grain dashboard, padded interior side panels, extra-thick carpet on the floorboards, racing-style mirrors, chrome rocker panel moldings. It came standard with a Rim Blow steering wheel, which allowed the driver to sound the hooter by squeezing the steering wheel.
Only available as a hardtop, the Grande's exterior was just as refined. Ford also offered, in their words, "a vinyl roof that looks like real leather--in either black or white". It now featured quad headlights up front, with the outer two being more recessed than the inner two that were merely mounted on the grille. It was also now larger and wider to look more muscular.
Only 22,182 buyers opted for the elegance of the Grande package in 1969, while Ford managed to sell 128,458 regular Mustang hardtops that year.
