Highway 61 Collectibles 1:18 Scale 1970 Ford Mach I Mustang Twister Special Grabber Orange 428 Super Cobra Jet.
Twister Specials were a group of 96 specially ordered and consecutively numbered Ford Mustang Mach 1's, were a promotional car made exclusively for the Ford Kansas City Sales District dealers.
The original Twister Special order was placed for 100 Mach 1's, light on convenience and luxury, heavy on performance options. Goodies included 428 SCJ engines, drag pack, competition suspension, power front disk brakes, shaker hood scoop and Goodyear F70x14 Raised White Letter Polyglass tires. The only non-performance options were an AM Radio and Tinted Glass. Half the order was to have been equipped with C6 automatic transmissions and 3.91 traction-lok differentials. The remainder with four-speed manual transmissions and 4.30 traction-loks.
Upon receipt of the order in Dearborn there were not enough 428 SCJ engines on hand. The 48 available 428 SCJ's were used and the remaining 48 cars were equipped with the newly announced 351 Cleveland 4V engines. Except for the power train combinations, all of the Twister Mustangs were produced in Grabber Orange and equipped identically. |
