Love it, nice job. 69 and 70 Mach 1's are my favorites. There are some interesting things to note on this car. Though it is not a Mach 1, it still carries the Mach 1 hood stripe. This is a bit more interesting because in 1970 a shaker hood typically went with a 4 barrel carb. In 1970 the 4 barrel carbs were dropped from the Windsor line (most available 351) the 351 Cleveland's sported the 4 barrel carb most of these engines were typically reserved for the Mach 1's. These could be special ordered in the non Mach 1 versions and that might be what is shown here.
The part that confuses me is that the rear valance is a single exhaust valance yet it has dual exhaust. Dual exhaust rear valance had two cutouts. This makes me wonder if it is a 2 bbl Windsor engine though I've personally never seen a 2 barrel Windsor with the shaker that wasn't on in a Mach 1. There were a few 69 carry over Windsors that had a 4 barrel in 70 but not a bunch were made and that still wouldn't match the valance. The Plain Jane interior resembles the Boss 302's and 429's. It would be interesting to know the history of that car. I'm wondering if it had some Dealer Add options. The front bumper extensions are also quite unique on a performance version of the Mustang as many had front spoilers. Just wondering if you happen to know whether it had the Windsor or Cleveland engine?

The car turned out nice. PwC Blue is my favorite AIO product for dark cars. I used to use it topped by EX on our Black Envoy.
Gear...I think you might be going in the right direction in regards to dealer modification. Those were the good days when dealers could really play with these cars.
