Vehicle Description
This W-code Boss retains its original paint and interior and has
30,827 actual miles (mileage not indicated on the title). It also
retains its completely rebuilt matching-numbers drivetrain with a
302ci 8-cylinder engine and close-ratio 4-speed manual transmission
that sends power to the pavement through a 4.30 axle. This Boss 302
rolled off Ford's Dearborn Assembly plant on November 21, 1969,
wearing Calypso Coral paint with a Vermilion Red bucket-seat
interior. Of the 7,014 1970 Boss 302s built that year, just 575
were painted that color and only 78 of those had the Vermilion Red
bucket-seat interior. From Dearborn, it went to Hinchey Motors in
Guymon, OK, as a well-loaded example sporting Magnum 500 wheels, a
close-ratio 4-speed, rear window sport slats and rear spoiler,
Shaker hood scoop, a tachometer and front bumper guards. The
original owner of this vehicle traded it into a dealership in Texas
in 1972. Its second owner street-drove the car for a couple of
years before taking it to the track in Amarillo to drag race. At
some point the engine was damaged and the vehicle parked until it
was purchased by the second owner's cousin some years later. The
car was then sent off to a professional for a complete drivetrain
rebuild and complete disassembly, as well as detail of the entire
vehicle.
