Vehicle Description
It seems all re-imagined classics have a story, and the
second-generation Boss is no exception. Back in 1969 Ford was doing
exceedingly well in NASCAR but getting absolutely whipped on the
Trans Am circuit. Despite virtually creating the Pony Car market,
the Mustang simply couldn't compete with Chevrolet's
performance-bred Camaro. Ford President Bunkie Knudson, a former GM
exec who recruited famed Mustang designer Larry Shinoda,
commissioned a project that would end the Z/28's reign of terror.
And in 1970, the Boss legacy commenced with a championship
performance in SCCA.
For the next 25 years, small displacement pony car warfare would
endure oil embargoes, insurance snipers and emissions issues to
become one of America's most cherished rivalries. In 2005, Ford
took a decidedly retro tone with its newest thoroughbred,
announcing a series of 'lifestyle' models to accompany the car's
production run. In 2006, with the appearance of Shelby monikers,
enthusiasts were cautiously optimistic about a resurrection of the
hallowed Boss name. In 2011, the triumphant return of the 5.0 liter
V8 stoked desire for a track-bred performer. And in 2012, Boss 302
production officially resumed.
But wait, there's more to the story. Not satisfied with building
the Boss legacy into the "quickest, best-handling
straight-production Mustang ever offered", Ford decided to turn the
performance dial from 10 to 11. Officially unveiled at the Rolex
Historic Races at Laguna Seca, the Boss 302 Laguna Seca added
standard Recaro seats, a standard Torsen differential, Ford Racing
brake ducts and even more extreme suspension tuning to the already
capable Boss 302. Production would be capped at roughly 750 units
per year, and the car's aesthetics would be no less spectacular
than its demeanor!
Combining rich Road Runner power with a track-tuned suspension,
this sinister pony is a two-owner dynamo that's traveled just 3,262
miles over the course of 11 sunny summers. And if you're a diehard
Ford fan who's looking for a thrilling performer to show AND enjoy,
it's your ticket to collector car paradise!
