This Candyapple Red example of Ford's mighty Mustang Boss 429 (KK
No. 1934) remained with its original owner until 2013. That owner
kept much of his sales documentation, including dealer paperwork, a
"welcome" letter to him from Ford and a copy of the original title.
Further verification of the Boss Nine's provenance comes from a
build sheet and a Marti Report.
Earlier in its life, the Mustang was restored, and that work was
recently freshened by Anghel Restorations of Scottsdale, Arizona,
using a selection of NOS parts. The car has also had a brush with
fame, having appeared on YouTube's "Jay Leno's Garage." The Mustang
retains its original driveline, including the matching-numbers
820-T version of the Boss 429 engine. The 820-T engines were the
second batch of Boss 429s built in 1969, made with lightened
rotating assemblies to help them rev faster. Behind the engine is
the Boss' original close-ratio Toploader 4-speed manual
transmission, sending the engine's 375 HP and 450 lb-ft of torque
to the Traction-Lok differential with 3.91 gears. The chassis
retains its power steering, power brakes and suspension, including
what Ford called its "ultra-heavy-duty performance front and rear
springs and shock absorbers" and "extra-heavy-duty competition
front and rear stabilizer bars." At each corner are the correct
Magnum 500 wheels with flat-black inserts that are found only on
Boss Nines.
The Mustang's black Comfortweave bucket-seat interior is
accessorized with the Deluxe Decor group and an AM radio-a simple
sound system that won't take anything away from the rumble of the
"shotgun" mill underhood. Considering the Boss 429 was the peak of
Mustang performance in 1969, the cars were far more subdued than
other muscle machines on the streets. The massive, functional hood
scoop was painted body color in 1969, and a simple "Boss 429" decal
on each front fender identified this NASCAR homologation
special.
