1970 Ford Mustang - Grabber Yellow (Ertl American Muscle) 1/18
Product Details Temp out of stock
Introduced in '69, the Mach 1 may not have topped the speed of sound, but Ford enthusiasts certainly liked the sound of a standard 351 cid powerplant, or any of the powerful engine options. No "wolf in sheep's clothing," a number of sporty exterior markings reinforced that the car was an all-out animal, including a shaker hood scoop and exclusive side stripe. At the height of the muscle car craze, the 1969 Mustang Mach 1 not only became the performance Mustang, but also a car for the ages.
In 1970, Ford decided to make a "horse of a different color" out of its Mustang, introducing an optio showcasing the new "Grabber" colors - Grabber Blue, Grabber Green, Grabber Orange, and Grabbery Yellow.
The new vibrant colors were not only the exclusives to the Grabber Mustang; it also featured a Sports roof and two distinct striping packages. Additional eye-candy on these Mustang models included blackout trim paint and dog-dish hub caps, trim rings
and whitewall tires. More than 5,000 of these special Mustang models were "grabbed up" by eager Ford fans!

The Ford Mustang launched on April 17, 1964 and sold over 22,000 units on its first day — a record that still stands. Credited with creating the pony car segment, the Mustang gave American buyers a sporty, affordable car at a time when performance meant expense. Early first-generation cars are among the most collected American automobiles ever produced, with the 1967–1968 fastback body style and the 1969–1970 Mach 1 considered peak muscle era styling.
This 1/18 scale replica of the 1970 Ford Mustang in Yellow is produced by Ertl American Muscle to collector-grade specifications. At 1/18 scale — the most popular collector scale — the model measures approximately 10 inches in length and displays beautifully on a shelf or in a glass cabinet. Every detail — from paint finish to badging — is reproduced from measurements taken from the original vehicle.
