This amazing Pastel Gray 1969 Mustang Mach 1 fastback was part of Emmanuel Theux's collection in 2008 and is now in the north west of France. This Mach 1 has the H-code, 250hp, 351ci, V8 engine and is our Attitude Of The Week for May 10th, 2009. Emmanuel says that this car was sold new to a US Marine who had to return it to the dealer after having troubles with the payment. It was then sold to a Swiss man in 1970, who was living in the states. Emmanuel says he bought it and brought it to Switzerland then sold it in Geneva after owning it for a year in 2008. It is a very complete car, matching numbers with the original body buck tag in the engine compartment. Pastel Gray is so light that it is almost white; and this car looks great with its red Mach1 side stripe and black hood, front air dam, rear window louvers or sport slats, and rear spoiler.
