Matching Engine LMC is very proud to offer for sale this 1970 Ford
BOSS 302 The pony car rivalry had begun in 1967 with the
introduction of the Chevrolet Camaro by General Motors. The Camaro
gave Ford its first real competition since the introduction of the
Mustang in 1964. However, revenge was sweet with the 1970 Ford
Mustang Boss 302. The name was inspired by Ford stylist Larry
Shinoda, who had a nickname among Ford employees of "Boss" and 302
was the motor to power this legendary mustang. Under the hood, the
Boss's high-output 302 V-8 was said to produce 290 horsepower at
4600 rpm, actual output was estimated to be far higher. Mated to
the motor is the optional wide ratio 4-speed manual. Ford spared no
expense to ensure this would be a Trans-Am-worthy power plant,
installing new "dry-deck" Cleveland-style heads with 2.33-inch
intake valves and no head gaskets, solid lifters, an aluminum
high-riser manifold, super-high-flow Holley four-barrel carburetor,
high-capacity dual-point ignition, four-bolt central-main-bearing
caps, cross-drilled forged crankshaft, and special pistons. This
rare Boss 302 was sold new on December 6th, 1969 at Service Motors
Inc. in Fond Du Lac, Wisconsin. This 1970 BOSS 302 Mustang has been
a special car since day one factory finished as you see it today in

Vinyl interior. This car is nicely optioned with factory ordered
Shaker Hood, factory ordered Rear Spoiler, factory ordered Sport
Slats, F60x15 Belted Tires, Power Brakes, Tachometer, Power
Steering, Chin Spoiler, Magnum 500 Wheels and AM radio. The car has
benefited from a beautiful restoration back to showroom new. Before
the restoration, the car was an extremely well preserved, low mile
survivor and remained very much in all original condition. The Boss
was stripped to bare metal to be refinished in a show quality
factory Grabber Orange paint which was then wet sanded and
polished. The undercarriage was painted in red oxide with body
color overspray and such factory details such as inspection
marking, batch primer, and black spot welds were recreated. The
engine is detailed with correct inspection markings, inspection
stickers and tags. Close inspection reveals that the numbers
matching BOSS 302 engine still remains under the shaker hood backed
