One BOSS you're going to love! An older restoration to concourse specs and then lived in a museum before coming to us! All the correct factory markings and body stampings are sprinkled throughout this historic time capsule. And not only that, this beautiful Boss 302's provenance is cataloged in the Boss 302 Registry! 1 of 168 highly optioned Boss 302s, how many of these do you think are still around today? A true, collector and investment quality car for those Ford enthusiasts looking to invest into a hard asset that can be driven! A fun history fact: The Boss 302 Mustang was styled by Larry Shinoda, a former GM employee, the name “Boss” was made in honor of the President of Ford, Semon "Bunkie" Knudson, who ironically was the one to hire Shinoda. The Sleek and Bold designs were changed from the 1969 model, deleting some items such as the fake side scoops, and adding functional front and rear spoilers. Made to compete in the SCCA Trans-Am Series, the Boss 302-4V model could accelerate from 0 to 60 mph in 6.9 seconds, and the quarter-mile took 14.6 seconds, reaching a speed of 98 mph - a very impressive feat back in 1970!Under the hood, with all correct decals, markings and stampings, lies the numbers matching Boss 302-4V Engine. The wide and large port heads with staggered valve placement give the 302 H.O. high power capabilities. Because of the pent-roof design of the heads, the Boss also had forged pop-up pistons. The heads feature steel spring seats, screw-in rocker studs, pushrod guide plates to aid in pushrod stability at high RPMs, and adjustable rocker arms. Fuel was provided by a Holley 780 cu ft/min manual choke carburetor. Ignition was handled by a dual point distributor firing unique AF 32 Autolite spark plugs specified because of their smaller size so as to fit within the tight confines of the combustion chamber alongside the very large valves. The motor produces a unique sound as a result of its solid-lifter configuration. At idle, properly tuned, the engine produced a significant amount of 'chatter' noise. The power output was 290 hp at 5,200 RPM with maximum torque of 290 lb⋅ft at 4300 RPM. It had a 6,250 RPM limit. The Boss 302 engine competes well with other high-performance' small blocks', such as the Chevy 302, the Chrysler 340, and the AMC 360. Remember, this was Ford's factory-built racecar that many have bought strictly to race, blew motors left and right, and replaced! This is a very original and correct Boss 302 one can get today!On the exterior, the J-code Grabber Blue paint is sure to turn heads every step of the way. The iconic blackout hood decals, reflective Boss 302 decals along the side, and the blackout tailpan assure you that this is the real thing!
