1969 Mustang Grand Hardtop - Grande Slam

Nelson Cardadeiro Found His Cobra Jet '69 Grand On A Used Car LotTwelve years ago, Nelson Cardadeiro was out cruising when he stopped by a used car lot in Hayward, California. He was looking for a Fox-body 5.0L Mustang to play with, but that's not what he found in suburban Oakland. Instead, on the front row was a green '69 Mustang Grand hardtop. He almost didn't look at the car because it didn't leave much of an impression. Nelson walked up to the car and happened to glance at the VIN plate at the base of the windshield. He had to rub his eyes because the mental tumblers just weren't falling into place. He expected to see an "M" or "H" 351W engine code. Instead, the engine code was "Q"-for 428 Cobra Jet.
