Winter Blue 1969 Mustang Mach 1 with 360hp (at 5400rpm), 428 cubic inch, Super Cobra Jet V8 engine with Ram Air induction, a hardened steel cast crankshaft, special "LeMans" connection rods, and special balancing for drag racing.
Hot Rod magazine called the Cobra Jet "the fastest running pure stock in the history of man." Only one engine was more powerful in 1969 and that was the 375hp (at 5200rpm), 429 cubic inch V8 engine for the Boss option. 1969 was the first and only early year the Mustang came with four headlights.

Separate driver and passenger side dash cowls gave the 1969 Mustang interior an aircraft cockpit-look with clock centered in the passenger side dash. 1969 introduced the Rim Blow steering wheel option for $36 which allowed the horn to be activated by squeezing hard anywhere along the outer edge of the wheel. A soft rubber insert around the perimeter of the steering wheel had two strips of copper inside the rubber, held apart by two lips and connected to a switch. When squeezed the copper would touch and the switch would activate the horn. Ford soon discovered that many drivers squeezed the steering wheel harder while turning causing the dreaded accidental honking in turns. The rimblow steering wheel is definitely not a steering wheel to wrap in leather.
