Hard to tell <img border="0" src= smileys/smiley5.gif>



At first glace, looks like a fastback. But it could be a Mach1 with the front spoiler and stripes removed.

Love that color. I believe that's a 70's color "Grabber Orange" on that '69 Fastback (or Mach1). I like it!

I think its a '69 because thats when they switched the front ends on the fast backs, and after that they turned to a mach 1, post more pictures so i can tell for sure.

I want your car!

Looks like a regular fastback. All 69's had the quarter scoops, but the Mach!'s did not have the "Mustang" emblem on the fender....it was a decal strip that ran the side oh the car about 2' wide with the word Mach1 being at the fore part of the strip.
