2004 Ford Mustang Mach 1

2004 Ford Mustang Mach 1 Sporty, eye-catching, and powerful! This is how people often described, (and still do), the different generations of the Ford Mustang Mach 1 throughout the years and the fourth generation of the Mach 1 is not an exception. Produced in 2003 and 2004, the fourth generation of Mach 1 Mustangs became one of the most iconic performance editions of Mustangs Ford has ever made. While muscle car fans often know about the first 69-70 generation and the latest 2021 generation of Mach 1, the in-between models and generations often get overlooked. Even though the 2003-2004 models were just as legendary, cool-looking, and powerful as their ancestor and successor. Unlike the previous un-special special edition badges, Mach 1 was here to impress and it was not fooling around. Unlike the previous Mach 1 editions that came with different engine specs, the 2004 Mach 1 only offered one line of engines; 32-valve, DOHC 4.6-liter V8s. it was the same beloved and powerful engine that powered the SVT Cobra but modified with a supercharger. Offering 305hp and 320 pound-feet torque, the 2004 Ford Mustang Mach 1 experience was, and still is, something to behold! The standard version offered a five-speed manual transmission. A four-speed automatic was also available but, let's be honest, you wouldn't want a Mach 1 with automatic gears, would you?For consignment, a 2004 Mustang Mach 1 who's name falls right into the theme of this build....speed and lots of it! With firepower coming from a supercharged 4.6 liter, 32-valve DOHC V8, it was based on Ford's family of modular V8s. The engine in this Mach 1 is considerably more advanced thanks to a full rebuild, upgraded cams and of course a Procharger supercharger. This engine now produces a a dyno proven 489 horsepower and is designed to do one thing and do it well...Go Fast!!! Wearing its original Torch Red paint, making it 1 of 1,259 built for the model year, and a comfy retro leather interior you have the mix of fine tuned euro sports car mixed with good old American horsepower. Sporting a title verified 59,041 miles, this famous throwback is ready to break the sound barrier and leave whatever challengers come your way feeling your sonic boom.ExteriorStarting out life from the factory in Torch Red and still wearing that application today, the finish remains in the deep end of the pool and is looking great to this day. This finish is not without a few faults and flaws in the form of the touched up chip offs and a few small scuffs on the chin spoiler. The red is aplenty for this car and save for the badging, there is not one lick of chrome anywhere. A big front chin spoiler goes mean and low to the ground and along with the neoprene front bumper frames the otherwise Mustang front grille with the long lived running pony floating in its center. Rocker flared fairings hover below the throwback hockey stick coves above in the doors and rear quarter, and on back a low profile spoiler keeps things grounded. Window trimmings are all in black and giving a bit more retro to the looks are black tape stripes running rearward up the hood, pausing for the uber kewl Shaker scoop, then starting again before dying off at the base of the sharply raked windshield. This stripe appears again on the short trunk lid and works perfectly with the Mach 1 call out black rocker stripes. Filling out the rear of the car are the modern take on the 3 piece tail lights and a honeycomb in black covering the base of the trunk lid. Just below is a nice aero designed body matching neoprene crash bumper with a requisite Mustang embossment. Large polished stainless exhaust tips peek out from either side under the bumper and charcoal black Race Star Industries wheels are on all 4 corners wrapped in skinny M&H Racemaster 185/55R17 rubber up front and ultra sticky Hoosier Quick-Time Pro 27/11.50-15LT's in the back from 2021 and 2022 respectively. InteriorSweet high back bucket seats in Graphite leather with plenty of body hugging side panels keep you snugly in the seats when you are doing doughnuts in the parking lot. Throwback inserts with perforated tuck and roll inserts and a white border stripe up top present in more graphite with the driver's seat showing a bit of leather wrinkling and age wear along with a few mars and color loss on the outer bolster. The iconic Mustang twin eyebrow dash in black shows a peppering of retro black face and white letter gauges inserted within a silver bezels creates a stealthy look for the interior. There is a band of black vinyl hugging the bottom of the dash, and the other side for the glovebox is also black. A rear 2 plus 2 bench is in and can be folded down for extra access to trunk storage. In the console we see the black with red stitching leather wrapped shifter and as the center console rises to the dash, we see the heater knobs and a Pioneer double-din stereo. Gracing the driver's A-pillar are twin pods for boost and air fuel ratio courtesy of AEM. Nicely preserved black carpet floods the floors and all forms like the door panels and center console all make heavy use of the french curve.DrivetrainA 4.6 Liter DOHC 32 valve V8 which produced a whopping 310 horsepower in stock trim is now on serious steroids and is making a dyno proven 489hp. This monster power number happens thanks in part to a Procharger P1SC supercharger and 4 Crane 228/500-12 camshafts. A Tremec TR3650 5-speed manual transmission is on back, and Ford provides the 8.8-inch which has been built to handle anything you can throw at it.UndercarriageSome surface rust is noted on the untreated components but all else is either a sea of black, aluminum, or shiny stainless for the exhaust piping and driveshaft as well as the flooring and unibody. Keeping this supersonic screamer surefooted is an independent coil spring suspension for the front, and a 4 link with coil spring independent rear suspension for the back all with performance coil springs. Power disc brakes are on all 4 corners with Brembo front rotors and PBR calipers all around. A dual exhaust system with SLP stainless steel mufflers give this car its growl. We note the addition of bolted in subframe connectors for extra chassis strength.Drive-AbilityA quick startup, windows down and off to the test track I went like a red streak on an attempt to break the sound barrier. Here it handled very nicely, you can feel the 489 horses pushing you along, and braking brings all this fun to halt. All functions were working just swimmingly including the ACFor its day it was a definite powerhouse and today it's a killer classic with nearly 490hp. 1 of 1,259 built in this color combination, a built to the stars drivetrain and that retina searing Torch Red paint makes for a great package. All you have to do now is pony up the dough!1FAFP42R34F1442551-USAF-Ford Motor CompanyA-Passenger CarF-Manual Belts, Front AirbagsP42-Mustang Coupe/Mach 1R-4.6L DOHC V83-Check Digit4-2004F-Dearborn, MI Assy Plant144255-Sequential Unit NumberClassic Auto Mall is a 336,000-square foot classic and special interest automobile showroom, featuring over 850 vehicles for sale with showroom space for up to 1,000 vehicles.
