Match Race ~ 1970 'Duster 340' vs. 1969 Mustang 'Mach 1' 351W

I believe historically, the Mustang wasn't a competitor at all at least not in the early days. That is why they widened the strut towers in 67 to fit the 390 under the Mustang hood. Ford really didn't have **** in the Musclecar era that is why they had those Big 427-428-429 cars. And they were expensive also so yeah they weren't competitive with say the 68 Road runner or 340 Duster.
