    Screenshot_2014-08-25-13-50-03-1.png So me and my boss just restores a 1970 mach 1 for a guy. He pulled the car from a junk yard 2 years ago. It had a car setting on top of it! Had a tough time with color on the car because it was coded as medium blue metallic with white stripes. Something we've never seen but we won't ahead painted the car back to original specs. Well the owner finally got his Marti report back and it was a shocker! Out of almost 191,000 1970 mustangs and like 40,000 mach 1's only 341 was painted medium blue, only 3 of those had white stripes.... and for the kicker! Only 1 had air..... and it's this car. It's a 1 of 1 1970 mach 1 mustang. We've been trying to figure a value for the car. Cause color alone the car is rare. Anyone want to throw some numbers?

    Nice looking Mach 1, but it is kind of hard to value a car based on a paint statistic. Almost every Elite Marti Report comes out 1 of 1.

    At local car shows we had a 1 of 1 Comet showing up with a big 4 foot Marti display to show how unique it was. Now sure if the Mustang in your photo is all stock or not but the Comet had a 351 Windsor under the hood so there went the original 1 of 1 on that car :huh:
