The last of the true kings-the 1971 Ford Mustang Mach 1 429 Cobra Jet not only heralded the end of an era in symbolic terms, but was also quite literally the final year for such monsters of the road from Ford, and represents the line drawn in the sand which distinguishes the years of serious development of the high output Mustang, and the hangers-on.
