Episode 12: 1969 Mustang Mach 1
Not every classic car restoration is about adding horsepower or improving performance. Sometimes, the most meaningful modifications are the ones that allow an owner to keep enjoying the car they love.
In this episode of Guthrie’s Garage, Jim Guthrie and his team take on a 1969 Ford Mustang Mach 1, transforming it from a manual transmission to an automatic to make the car more comfortable and enjoyable for its owner.
With knee problems making it increasingly difficult to operate a clutch, the owner wanted a way to continue driving his beloved Mustang without sacrificing the character and experience that make this classic American muscle car so special.
The solution? A carefully planned automatic transmission conversion designed around the owner’s needs.
