1970 Mach 1 Owned by John Russell Prokop of Tucson, AZ
The Calypso Coral Cobra Jet Mach 1 in San Diego after winning first place in class at the San Diego Mustang Club's Show in October 2002
History:
This Mach 1 was found in Tucson, Arizona in 1993 in quite poor condition and required an extensive four-year restoration by the owner to return the car to it's original showroom appearance.  Today this Mustang is one of the nicest examples of a 1970 Mach 1 you'll find in California.  After moving to San Diego in 1998, John has shown the car at all the important Mustang and Ford events and has collected a garage full of trophies and other awards that prove the quality of this fine Mustang.
