The legendary Twister special story begins when American Raceways International requested 1970 Mustang convertibles for use as pace cars and limited editions. Named after the frequent Midwest tornadoes, the Mach 1 Twister Specials were numbered consecutively. All were delivered in Grabber Orange paint with a black interior, functional Shaker hood scoop, power steering and power front disc brakes. Externally, the Twister specials were identified by their black midlevel side stripes and ''tornado'' rear quarter panel decals. As Mach 1s, the Twister Specials were top-of-the-line Mustangs SportsRoofs with grille-mounted fog lights, aluminum lower rocker panels, black honeycomb rear panel, Competition Suspension, 3.50 Traction-Lok differential and the Mach 1 deluxe bucket-seat interior with molded door panels, console, wood-grain trim and 3-spoke Rim Blow steering wheel.
