On offer is this fully restored, very correct example of Ford's preeminent musclecar; the highly respected Boss 429 with 375-hp from its renowned V-8 engine paired off with a four-speed manual transmission. Handsomely presented in Royal Maroon with black interior, this model is built on the SportsRoof platform. This exciting car conveys nothing but performance. You immediately notice the massive functional hood scoop, slightly modified (by the factory) wheel wells to accommodate the one-inch additional tire tread width, subtle front and rear spoilers, dual racing mirrors and chrome-plated Magnum 500 wheels. The high-back bucket seats are separated by a center console, and a radio is also aboard.

The restoration has resulted in an engine compartment and undercarriage that is highly detailed. The engine block is stamped with correct partial VIN, and the transmission plus the remainder of the driveline are believed by the vendor to be original. The interior is correct with accurate non-toe pad carpet, while the trunk-mounted battery is an accurate reproduction with the proper vent caps.

The engine has only a few hundred miles on an older professional rebuild. The steering system has a fresh rebuild with correct, unique Boss 429 parts; including ram, pump and Blue Dot reproduction hoses. Other evidence of the detail used in the restoration includes the use of correct reproduction Autolite shocks, correct date-coded glass, original-style lug nuts, alternator, belts and engine pulleys. All smog equipment is present.

This exceptional example comes with a Deluxe Marti report, original factory build sheet, two Ford Dealer invoices (Eminger), 2013 MCA Concours inspection report, N.O.S. owner’s manual, receipts and paperwork dating back to late 1980s. It also received the Concours “trailered-driven” Silver award at the 2013 MCA Grand National show, a fine verification to its pedigree.
