Your choice of a Ford product is an
intelligent and informed one. Ford strives
to build engaging vehicles that involve the
driver in every aspect of the driving
experience. Although performance is at
the heart of every Ford vehicle, we go much
further. Our goal is to deliver a
comprehensive, complete vehicle,
sweating the details such as the sound of
the exhaust, the quality of the interior
materials, and the functionality and the
comfort of the seats, to ensure that the
driver enjoys not only exceptional
performance but an outstanding driving
environment as well. In the Mach 1, that
philosophy is expressed by a sophisticated
powertrain, outstanding chassis dynamics
and significant interior and exterior
enhancements.
This supplement complements your
Mustang Owner
’s Manual and provides
information specific to the Mach 1. By
referring to the pages listed in this
supplement, you can identify those
features, recommendations and
specifications unique to your new vehicle.
If there are any discrepancies between this
supplement and the Mustang Owner ’s
Manual, this supplement shall supersede
the information found in the Mustang
Owner ’s Manual. Mach 1 History
The Ford Mustang has been celebrated
over the past half-century with many
special performance versions, including
several unique models that have proudly
carried their own nomenclature. There
have been HiPo's, Shelbys and GTs, plus
California Specials, Bosses, Cobras, SVO’
s
and 5.0’ s, Cobra Jets and Bullitts – each
with distinct design cues and equipment
enhancements targeted at specific buyers.
Of them all, perhaps the best-known and
most accessible to the widest owner base
is the Mustang Mach 1, a sporty fastback
first introduced in 1969 that had the look,
features and performance that helped
define the muscle car era.
In postwar America, the Jet Age influence
was all the rage -- especially in the auto
industry, where tail fins and air intakes
influenced progressive car designs. It was
then when the terms Mach 1 and Sound
Barrier became part of public conversation,
as jets and rockets were being employed
in aeronautic experiments to help
humankind soar past the speed of sound.

as well as the elimination of a convertible.
The automotive performance world soon
came to a screeching halt in the wake of
an oil embargo and resulting gas
shortages, forcing most Americans to
abandon their muscle cars and
V-8-powered rides in favor of smaller,
more fuel-efficient vehicles. Ford saw the
market shift as the perfect time to return
its pony car to its roots – a compact,
affordable, sporty car whose styling and
image captured the spirit and imagination
of the American public.
When the new-from-the-ground-up,
second-generation Mustang II was
launched for the 1974 model year, it was
the first Mustang equipped with a
four-cylinder engine. An all-new 2.3-liter
I-4 produced around 90 horses as the
standard powerplant for the downsized
Mustang II - yet performance was roughly
equivalent to the previous Mustang’
s big
inline six. The Mustang II was available as
a hardtop two-door notchback coupe or a
three-door hatchback-style fastback.
Buyers had a choice of either I-4 or V-6
power, as well as a three-speed automatic
or four-speed manual transmissions. To
keep Mustang’ s performance image going
even in a world where consumers favored
fuel economy over horsepower, an
enthusiast-focused Mustang II Mach 1
model was offered as a three-door
hatchback-style fastback, replete with
bucket seats.
There ’s little question that the saving grace
for the Mustang II’ s performance
reputation came when Ford finally realized
it needed to put the 302 V-8 back onto the
Mustang option list for 1975-78. The V-8
was available in any model, but first only
mated to a three-speed automatic
transmission, as a four-speed manual was
delayed a full year until a suitable clutch
could be tooled up. The two-barrel 302
shoehorned into the Mustang II got
catalytic converters to help meet 1976 ’s tighter emissions standards, and saw an
increase to 139 horsepower – nearly equal
to the ’
73’s standard V-8 power level. The
Mach 1’ s optional Competition Suspension
package offered stiffer springs, adjustable
shock absorbers and fatter front and rear
stabilizer bars to improve handling, and
kept it a popular enthusiast choice over all
five years of Mustang II's production. By
the dawn of the third-generation Mustang,
the Mach name would not return again to
the Mustang line until some 25 years later.
After the 1979-93 Fox Body Mustang years
had come and gone with the reintroduction
of a GT model, new sheet metal on a
revamped SN-95 platform helped to
rekindle consumer interest in a
fourth-generation Ford Mustang.
Enthusiasts lavished their attention upon
the 1993-1999 Mustang Cobra
performance model developed by the Ford
Special Vehicle Team skunkworks group,
while Ford engineers looked to specialty
models to fill the mid-market slot between
the standard Mustang GT and the
upmarket Cobra.
After the success of the 2001 Bullitt, a
new-for-2003 Mach 1 was launched to
offer fans some design cues from its '69
namesake, including a blackout hood,
black front air-dam extension and rear
decklid spoiler – even bodyside scoops. To
match its aggressive look and hardware
upgrades, the '03 Mach 1 was powered by
a 305-horsepower, 4.6L DOHC modular
V-8. Unlike the SVT Cobra, the Mach 1
offered an automatic transmission option
in lieu of the manual, and consequently
drew a new group of enthusiast buyers into
the Ford fold. The strong customer
response prompted another year of Mach
1 production for 2004, the Mustang's final
year on the fourth-gen platform.

Recommendations for Safety Restraints for Children
Recommended Restraint
Type
Child Size, Height, Weight, or Age
Child
Use a child restraint
(sometimes called an
infant carrier, convertible seat, or toddler seat).
Children weighing 40 lb (18 kg) or less
(generally age four or younger).
Infants or
toddlers
Use a belt-positioningbooster seat.
Children who have outgrown or no longer
properly fit in a child restraint (generally
children who are less than
57 in (1.45 m)
tall, are greater than age four and less
than age 12, and between
40 lb (18 kg)
and 80 lb (36 kg) and upward to 100 lb
(45 kg) if recommended by your child
restraint manufacturer).
Small children
Use a vehicle seatbelt
having the lap belt snug
and low across the hips, shoulder belt centered
across the shoulder and
chest, and seat backrest upright.
Children who have outgrown or no longer
properly fit in a belt-positioning booster
seat (generally children who are at least 57 in (1.45 m)
tall or greater than 80 lb
(36 kg) or 100 lb (45 kg) if recommended by child restraint manufacturer).
Larger children
• You are required by law to properly use
child restraints for infants and toddlers
in the United States, Canada and
Mexico.
• Many states and provinces require that
small children use approved booster
seats until they reach age eight, a
height of
57 in (1.45 m) tall, or 80 lb
(36 kg). Check your local and state or
provincial laws for specific
requirements about the safety of
children in your vehicle. •
When possible, properly restrain
children 12 years of age and under in a
rear seating position of your vehicle.
Accident statistics suggest that
children are safer when properly
restrained in the rear seating positions
than in a front seating position. See
Front Passenger Sensing System
(page 50).
• When installing a rear facing child
restraint, adjust the vehicle seats to
avoid interference between the child
restraint and the vehicle seat in front
of the child restraint.

INSTALLING CHILD
RESTRAINTS - MACH 1
Rear Seat Delete (If Equipped)
WARNING:
It is extremely
dangerous to ride in a cargo area, inside
or outside of a vehicle. In a crash, people
riding in these areas are more likely to be
seriously injured or killed. Do not allow
people to ride in any area of your vehicle
that is not equipped with seats and
seatbelts. Make sure everyone in your
vehicle is in a seat and properly using a
seatbelt. Failure to follow this warning
could result in serious personal injury or
death. This is not a seating position. You cannot
place persons or child restraints in the rear
of the vehicle with the rear seat delete
option. Vehicles Without Rear Seats
Once you have installed the child restraint
using the seatbelt, you can attach the top
tether strap.
Attach the tether strap only to the
appropriate tether anchor as shown. The
tether strap may not work properly if you
attach it somewhere other than the correct
tether anchor.
Perform the following to attach a child
restraint to the tether anchor.
Route the tether strap as follows.
For Recaro front seats without rear seats,
route the tether strap through the
innermost slot of the front passenger seat
backrest or route the tether strap over the
top of the seat. You may need a tether
strap extension to reach the tether anchor.

For standard front seats without rear seats,
route the tether strap over the top of the
seat.
If you install a child restraint and you
attach the top tether strap to the proper
top tether anchor, do not tighten the tether
strap enough to lift the child restraint off
the vehicle seat cushion when the child is
seated in it. Keep the tether strap just snug
without lifting the front of the child
restraint. Keeping the child restraint just
touching the vehicle seat gives the best
protection in a severe crash.
See the Child Safety chapter in your base
Owner's Manual for more information.
INSTALLING CHILD
RESTRAINTS - VEHICLES
WITHOUT: SVT
PERFORMANCE PACKAGE
Child Seats Use a child restraint (sometimes called an
infant carrier, convertible seat, or toddler
seat) for infants, toddlers, or children
weighing 40 lb (18 kg) or less (generally
age four or younger).
Using Lap and Shoulder Belts WARNING:
Do not place a
rearward facing child restraint in front of
an active airbag. Failure to follow this
instruction could result in personal injury
or death. WARNING:
Properly secure
children 12 years old and under in a rear
seating position whenever possible. If
you are unable to properly secure all
children in a rear seating position,
properly secure the largest child on the
front seat. If you must use a forward
facing child restraint on the front seat,
move the seat as far back as possible.
Failure to follow these instructions could
result in personal injury or death.

3.
While holding the shoulder and lap belt
portions together, route the tongue
through the child restraint according
to the child restraint manufacturer's
instructions. Make sure that you have
not twisted the belt webbing. 4. Insert the belt tongue into the proper
buckle (the buckle closest to the
direction the tongue is coming from)
for that seating position until you hear
a snap and feel the latch engage. Make
sure the tongue is latched securely by
pulling on it. 5. To put the retractor in the automatic
locking mode, grasp the shoulder
portion of the belt and pull downward
until all of the belt is pulled out. Note:
The automatic locking mode is
available on the front passenger and rear
seats. This vehicle does not require the use
of a locking clip.
6. Allow the belt to retract to remove slack. The belt will click as it retracts
to indicate it is in the automatic locking
mode.
7. Try to pull the belt out of the retractor to make sure the retractor is in the
automatic locking mode. You should
not be able to pull more belt out. If the
retractor does not lock, unbuckle the
belt and repeat Steps 5 and 6. 8.
Remove remaining slack from the belt.
Force the seat down with extra weight,
for example, by pressing down or
kneeling on the child restraint while
pulling up on the shoulder belt in order
to force slack from the belt. This is
necessary to remove the remaining
slack that exists once you add the extra
weight of the child to the child restraint.
It also helps to achieve the proper
snugness of the child restraint to your
vehicle. Sometimes, a slight lean
toward the buckle will additionally help
to remove remaining slack from the
belt.
9. If the child restraint has a tether strap, attach it.
