1970 Ford Mustang BOSS 302

LMC is very proud to offer for sale this 1970 Ford BOSS 302

The pony car rivalry had begun in 1967 with the introduction of the Chevrolet Camaro by General Motors. The Camaro gave Ford its first real competition since introduction of the Mustang in 1964.  However, revenge was sweet with the 1970 Ford Mustang Boss 302. The name was inspired by Ford stylist Larry Shinoda, who had a nickname among Ford employees of “Boss” and 302 was the motor to power this legendary mustang.

Under the hood, the Boss's high-output 302 V-8 was said to produce 290 horsepower at 4600 rpm, actual output was estimated to be far higher.  Mated to the motor is the optional wide ratio 4 speed manual. Ford spared no expense to ensure this would be a Trans-Am-worthy powerplant, installing new "dry-deck" Cleveland-style heads with 2.33-inch intake valves and no head gaskets, solid lifters, an aluminum high-riser manifold, super-high-flow Holley four-barrel carburetor, high-capacity dual-point ignition, four-bolt central-main-bearing caps, cross-drilled forged crankshaft, and special pistons

This car was built on February 27 1970 and delivered to the Seattle District Sales Office. It would remain unsold until May 19th of 1970 until the sales team at Nissen Motor Company in Albany, Oregon would find the cars first owner.  Factory ordered and finished in the highly desirable Grabber Blue exterior complemented by its black reflective decals running along the side and completed with its Black Vinyl interior. Powered by the high-output Boss 302 V-8 engine backed by a Top Loader 4 speed transmission with a Traction-Lok 3.50 rear end this Boss has all the hardware needed to have some fun on the street.  This car is factory optioned with extremely desirable factory Shaker Hood and complete with Sport Slats, Rear Deck Spoiler, F60x15 Belted Goodyear Polyglass Tires on Magnum 500 Wheels, Power Steering, Chin Spoiler, Tachometer, and AM radio. The car has been very nicely restored and the paint has been wet sanded and polished to a beautiful condition. To round out the package, It also comes fully documented with its deluxe Marti Report.

The Ford BOSS Mustangs are among the great muscle cars of the day, this car checks off all the boxes of being a great example, rare and desirable Grabber Blue with black interior, nicely restored, well optioned and fully documented, all factors making it a truly desirable BOSS 302 to both collectors and enthusiasts alike.
