1969 Ford Mustang Boss 429 is up for auction

In 1969, Ford presented one of the rarest and highly valued muscle cars to date to fulfill Ford‘s need to homologate the 429 semi-hemispherical engine for NASCAR racing, the Mustang Boss 429. It was produced until 1970, and 1359 cars left the production lines. One of them, a 1969 Ford Mustang Boss 429 is up for auction.

Mustang Boss 429 is powered by a 7.0L 429ci V8 engine with a factory output of 375 hp (280 kW) and 450 lb-ft (610 Nm) of torque at 3400 rpm. Power is sent to the rear wheels via a four-speed manual transmission and a Traction-Lok differential. It sits on 15″ Magnum 500-style wheels wrapped in 205/70 Goodyear Polyglas GT tires.

This car is finished in Candyapple Red, well maintained and in good condition. It is equipped with a front spoiler, a vented hood, dual side mirrors, a rear spoiler, Boss 429 badging, dual exhaust outlets, a Traction-Lok differential, revised control arms, a higher-rate front anti-roll bar than other Mustang variants, a rear anti-roll bar, a competition suspension with staggered rear shocks, and power-assisted brakes with discs up front and drums out back.

Inside, high-back bucket seats are trimmed in black vinyl that also covers the door panels, rear bench, center console and dashboard, with color-keyed carpets, and simulated woodgrain appliqués on the dashboard. In front of the driver is a three-spoke wood-trimmed steering wheel behind which is a five-digit odometer showing 4,407 miles. Additional equipment includes the Interior Decor Group–Deluxe and Visibility Group packages, and it features a Philco AM radio, a dash-mounted rally clock, deluxe seat belts, and courtesy lights for the glovebox, ashtray, and trunk.

The car comes with the removed factory wheels, a window sticker, two build sheets, an owner’s manual, and a clean Missouri title.

The auction ends on October 7th and the highest bid at the time of writing is $400,000 USD.
