1969 Ford Mustang Boss
View Description
In 1969 Ford produced just 859 of these to compete with Chrysler's 426 Hemi in the NASCAR circuit. These engines were severely underrated at 375 horsepower. Some sources say actual horsepower was far and beyond 500! In order to fit this engine in the Mustang, Ford contracted out the work to Kar Kraft in Brighton, MI to complete the heavy modifications. This Boss9 was built on March 28th, 1969 and sold shortly after on April 10th, 1969. This beautiful example was removed from a garage in 1985 with just 4,000 miles and driven for another 12,000 miles before it was sent to the restoration shop where it underwent a full frame off restoration. The vehicle has been restored to the condition it would have come out of the factory is '69. The car's original colors have been retained: Wimbledon White on the outside, and a beautiful Black vinyl interior. Where Mach1S and Shelbys are typically adorned with striping, the Boss has a much more subtle exterior scheme. Mono-tone paint and simple 'Boss 429' lettering on the fender make the car a bit of a sleeper. Take a peek at the undercarriage and it is clear no expense was spared when refurbishing...
