Both 1971 Mustang Sportsroofs used in the film (neither car has been proven to be a Mach 1, as often assumed) were bought in 1971, but—as it was three years before the film's director H. B. Halicki could raise sufficient funds to start filming—each car was modified with grilles taken from a 1973 model for the film (though each retain the original front bumpers, lower valances, and fenders).
The Mach 1 was equipped with a 4.6 L DOHC 305 hp (227 kW) engine based on the engine available in the 1999 and 2001 Mustang Cobras, with new cylinder heads from the 2003 to 2004 Cobra (see above). The interior of the car was given a retro theme with seats made to look like the "comfort-weave" seats available in the 1960s-era Mach 1s.
