This 1969 Ford Mustang SportsRoof is a stunning example of American muscle, finished in its original Meadowlark Yellow with a Mach 1-style hood, front and rear spoilers, and black-painted bumpers. The car has been cherished by only three Oregon owners since new, with the current owner acquiring it in 1989. A comprehensive refurbishment between 2014 and 2020 elevated its performance and appearance, including the addition of a stroked 396ci Windsor V8 and modern enhancements.
Under the hood, the 396ci Windsor V8 is equipped with a COMP Cams roller camshaft, Holley Terminator Stealth EFI, an Edelbrock Performer intake manifold, and JBA shorty headers. Rated at 483 horsepower and 502 lb-ft of torque, the engine sends power to the rear wheels via a Tremec TKO600 five-speed manual transmission and an Auburn Pro Series 3.50 limited-slip differential. The custom dual exhaust system, paired with Flowmaster mufflers, produces a distinctive exhaust note that perfectly complements the car’s aggressive performance.
For superior handling, this Mustang is equipped with Total Control coilover suspension and power rack-and-pinion steering, ensuring a smooth yet responsive ride. Baer four-piston brakes provide excellent stopping power, while the 17” front and 18” rear double-staggered Boze alloy wheels are wrapped in high-performance Nitto tires. The exterior underwent a glass-out repaint between 2016 and 2018, with updated H4 headlights and LED taillights enhancing both functionality and the car’s overall aesthetic.
Inside, the cabin is trimmed with black knit upholstery on deluxe bucket seats and a Sport Deck folding rear seat. A Dakota Digital gauge cluster, installed in 2020, sits behind a three-spoke steering wheel, and the digital odometer shows fewer than 1,600 miles since installation.
This 1969 Mustang SportsRoof offers an exceptional blend of classic muscle car appeal and modern performance upgrades, making it an ideal choice for any enthusiast looking for a rare, well-maintained piece of automotive history.
