Vehicle Description
A numbers-matching 1970 Ford Mustang Boss 302 in its correct colors
and been under the same meticulous care for 28 years. We'll go on
with all the juicy details, but we bet you've already checked the
price on this rare pony and are looking for our number.
The Boss was all about performance, so Ford gave you all the
important hardware up front, and few will argue that the result
isn't one of the best-looking pony cars of all time. These coupes
are now first-tier collector pieces. Also, despite this car's
race-bred DNA, it appears to have never been abused. This car has
been under the same garage-kept car since 1988, and the restoration
was completed four years later. The maintenance has been
exceptional, including updating the restoration about a decade ago
(call us for the full story on this very cherished Boss 302.) The
result is a level of care that has gone into this Sportsroof coupe
is immediately evident. The bodywork has been finished and to the
correct Bright Yellow paint shows a dazzling shine, and of course,
Larry Shinoda's satin black hood and side graphics are complete.
The result is a car that has been benchmarked in many publications
and received many awards.
The all-black interior is ideal for the potent Boss 302, and its
all-business driver's environment is both comfortable and
functional. This car carries a very premium and original feeling,
which is thanks in part to having the seats recovered in 2008 to
exacting factory standards. A center console was added simply
because of the comfort provided by this factory option. But in the
middle of that is the industrial-strength Hurst T-handle shifter
atop the close-ratio four-speed. So the Boss is always perfect for
grabbing gears quickly. While all of that will keep your right hand
busy, your left one grabs the factory wheel and your eyes watch the
clear factory gauges. The trunk is finished to show standards as
well, with a correct mat, space-saver spare, and a complete jack
assembly.
What really makes the Boss 302 special is in the engine bay, and so
a lot of attention was paid to getting it right. The high-revving
302 small block is ready to compete on the show field or on the
track, including a correct non-Shaker air polished cleaner,
reproduction decals, properly marked hoses, and even little stuff
like the clamps on the correct emissions control system. Finned
valve covers give it a racy look, but fans know these cars were
built for combat and the good stuff is inside. Four-bolt mains, the
biggest Holley Ford could find (it currently wears a 650-CFM unit),
and a solid-lifter camshaft give it extraordinary flexibility and
the most awesome sound this side of a Can-Am monster. This full
setup has been rebuilt in 1994 to stock specifications and the
owner says he has put less than 100 miles on it since then. The
chassis has been detailed for show, with correct red oxide primer
on the floors and just enough Bright Yellow overspray to remind us
how the production process really looked. From a performance
standpoint, you get all the right features such as the control of
the four-speed, Ford's nine-inch rear end, and versatile 3.50
gears. There also front disc brakes and Sigma Grand Prix
Performance GT tires on each one of those iconic Magnum 500
wheels.
This is a highly documented coupe with the dealer invoice, owner's
manual, Marti Report, and much more. James Brown may have paid the
cost to be the boss, but at this price, you're getting a steal of a
deal with this well sorted and always in-demand fastback. Of
course, you still have to be the first one here to snatch it up.
