1970 Ford Mustang

INTRODUCTION: Less than 300 miles on an impressive restoration! Genuine Boss 429 Mustangs are among the most desirable American muscle cars ever built. In fact, one recently sold for a record setting $1,045,000. While this is not a factory Boss 429, it has been built and restored to capture the look, feel, and performance of the original- and in many ways, it surpasses it! The fit and finish are outstanding, the upgrades make it a better driver, and the overall quality is exceptional.

EXTERIOR: The 1970 Mustang fastback has some of the best looking body lines ever put on an American car, and this one certainly has the look. The fit and finish are outstanding. The body is laser straight, and I could not find any significant flaws. The doors shut with a solid, likenew feel. It features the iconic Boss 429 hood scoop and is further dressed up with front and rear spoilers, sport mirrors, and window louvers. The Hugger Orange paint is absolutely stunning, laid out evenly and polished to a mirror like finish thats likely better than it left the factory. All of the glass has been replaced, and it appears the chrome, trim, and weatherstrips have been replaced as well. Its rolling proudly on 15-inch Magnum 500 wheels wrapped in Cooper Cobra radial tires.

INTERIOR: This is the first time Ive sat in this car, and Im genuinely impressed. The interior is practically brand new from the carpet to the headliner. It features the desirable deluxe interior with what appear to be new molded door panels, complete with working courtesy lights. The seats have been recushioned and upholstered, and even the seat belts look like quality reproductions. The carpet is fresh and protected by reproduction pony floor mats. The center console, dash pad, and instrument bezels all appear new. It has been upgraded with a full set of custom gauges while retaining the factory working clock. The headliner, visors, and interior lights are all excellent. A tilt steering column and leather wrapped custom steering wheel add driving comfort, and the best part is the five-speed shifter proudly sticking up through the console.

ENGINE COMPARTMENT: The monster under the hood started life as a 460 and was professionally bored and stroked to 520 cubic inches, producing an impressive 600 horsepower and 750 lb-ft of torque. It features premium John Kaase aluminum Boss heads, a factory aluminum intake topped with a dual feed Holley carburetor, MSD ignition with a billet distributor, and a set of custom headers. The front runner system is beautifully finished with billet brackets, serpentine pulleys, a polished one wire alternator, and a modern power steering system with a remote reservoir. Cooling is handled by an aluminum water pump, aluminum radiator with dual electric fans, and an overflow tank, keeping temperatures in check. The entire engine compartment is exceptionally clean, orderly, and highly detailed, making it just as impressive to look at as it is to drive.

TRUNK COMPARTMENT: Under the trunk lid, the jamb, and the inside of the trunk are all painted the body color with a smooth, glossy finish. Just like the factory Boss, the battery is relocated to the trunk. Its finished with a reproduction weatherstrip, trunk mat, and the correct prop rod, making for a clean and proper presentation.

UNDERSIDE: The chassis has been thoroughly upgraded to match the cars performance. Up front is a modern Heidts front clip featuring tubular upper and lower control arms, coilover shocks, a custom sway bar, and rack-and-pinion steering for precise handling. Subframe connectors tie the front and rear together to minimize body twist. In back, the suspension has been rebuilt with new bushings, springs, and lowering blocks for an aggressive stance. The fuel system has been replaced, and a nicely installed dual exhaust with Flowmaster mufflers exits through polished tips in the rear valance. Its also been upgraded with power disc brakes at all four wheels. Looking up at the engine, youll find a Ford blue extra capacity oil pan. Power is transferred through a Tremec five-speed transmission to a Strange Engineering 9-inch rear end with 3.50 Traction-Lok gears. The floors have been restored, are completely solid, and are neatly finished in black.

SERVICE: We take pride in our cars and our reputation. Every vehicle goes through our service department where it is inspected, test driven, and we address the essentials before offering it for sale.

CONCLUSION: Not only are Boss 9 tributes very rare, this one is in exceptional condition. If you want the Boss 429 experience without the seven figure price tag, this is an opportunity you wont want to miss!
