Mustang Boss 429

Description

The 1970 Ford Mustang Boss 429 is not just a car; it's a legendary piece of automotive history born from a well-thought-out homologation program aimed at dominating the NASCAR circuit. This remarkable vehicle was the result of a collaboration between Ford and Kar Kraft, an engineering firm dedicated to transforming the standard Mustang into a high-performance powerhouse. To qualify for racing, a limited number of Boss 429 Mustangs were produced, making them a rare find today. The program focused on equipping these muscle cars with the formidable 429 cubic-inch V8 engine, specifically designed to meet NASCAR's specifications. With only 1,359 examples built during its short production run, the Boss 429 stands as a testament to Ford's racing heritage and engineering prowess, representing an era of raw power and performance in American muscle.

This stunning example of a 1970 Ford Mustang Boss 429 Sportroof is finished in vibrant Grabber Blue, an iconic color that perfectly complements its aggressive design and muscle car spirit. With only 30,800 original miles, this beauty has been carefully maintained, preserving its authentic charm and performance. Inside, you will find a luxurious White Decor vinyl bucket seat interior, offering both comfort and style during your driving experience. Every available option has been meticulously equipped, ensuring that this vehicle provides the complete Boss 429 package. This includes 4-speed close-ratio manual transmission with center console, power front disc brakes, power steering with quick-ratio steering box, Drag Pack with 3.91 Traction-Lok rear axle & engine oil cooler, Competition Suspension, raised white letter Goodyear Polyglas GT tires, 8k-rpm tachometer, functional front air spoiler, Convenience and Décor Package Groups, simulated teakwood steering wheel with rim-blow horn, electric clock and AM radio, Deluxe seatbelts with warning light, trunk-mounted battery with collapsible spare tire equipment.

From its unmistakable stance to its thunderous power, this Mustang Boss 429 is a rare opportunity for collectors and enthusiasts alike, standing as a proud symbol of American automotive excellence. Only 859 were built in the first year 1969, and just 500 units were added for 1970. Several changes in the 1970 model differentiated it from the previous year to include a change from hydraulic lifters to solid lifters to eliminate valve float, along with improved Holley carburetion, a straight through exhaust flow configuration, Hurst-shifter on the transmission, addition of a rev limiter, and lightweight 5-blade cooling fan. This example remains an all-original, unrestored specimen with all original paintwork and interior intact.

Having sold new on Christmas Eve in 1969 from Earnhardt Ford Sales based in Chandler, Arizona when new, it would later come into possession of a California collector in 1992 where it would stay for the next 33 years! Always garage-kept and pampered, it remains a testament to automotive preservation! It will come with owner's manual, complete Elite Marti Auto Works documentation with factory invoice, and 1992 California drive-away temp tag receipt. Don't miss your chance to own a remarkable piece of history that truly defines what it means to be a muscle car aficionado!
