LMC is very proud to offer for sale this 1970 Ford Mustang Boss 302.
Ford’s performance machine, the Boss 302, was a direct competitor to Chevrolet’s Camaro Z/28, as it offered more performance on a reduced-weight chassis. It proved its worth on the track, winning the SCCA’s 1970 Trans-Am racing series, and it was quite popular in the showroom, as it offered customers a vehicle that was just as comfortable on the road as it was on the track. In a comparison test in their February 1970 issue, Car and Driver further praised the Boss’s street manners, stating that “it is quiet and exudes quality, very much like an expensive European GT car. The stiff suspension and high shock absorber control give it a very purposeful feel, and because the body doesn’t quiver or rattle when you hit a bump, the overall impression is most satisfying.”
This 1970 Ford Mustang Boss 302 was built at the Dearborn Assembly Plant on July, 8, 1970 and sent to Darald Peters Ford Inc in Raymond Illinois. From Factory, this Boss was equipped with several desirable features such as; Optional Axle ratio with factory oil cooler, the rare Detroit Locker Differential, Rear Deck Spoiler, Shaker Hood Scoop, Sport Slats, Power Steering, and AM Radio. This Mustang wears its factory Medium Lime Metallic Paint and it is in wonderful condition top to bottom. The interior is Black Vinyl Standard Bucket Seats, as it had when it left factory, and is also in wonderfully restored condition. It is powered by the Trans Am 302-4V Boss engine that is numbers matching, and has the mandatory 4-speed manual transmission. Accompanying this Boss and verifying this information is the full Marti Report. The owner’s manual, the Warranty Identification Card, the original Build Sheet, original Dealer Invoice, and Window Sticker are also present with the Mustang in a neatly organized binder.
The 1970 Boss 302 was and still is one of the most popular muscle cars of the era and this is an excellent opportunity to own a real, well and fully documented, numbers matching 302 that has benefited from a complete nut and bolt rotisserie restoration. Combined with the factory optional axle ratio with factory oil cooler and factory Detroit locker differential this is likely one of only a handful produced of a very rare and sought after Trans Am Mustang.

About Ford
Ford, founded in 1902, has arguably changed the history of automotive world more than any other car manufacturer by introducing the first people's car Model T in 1908. They had produced more than 15 million cars by the end of the production in 1927, by which T had become obsolete.Ford launched the first low priced V8 engine powered car in 1932. 1932 V8 was an instant hit with superior handling and performance to many far more expansive cars of the day. No wonder 32 V8 Ford has become such a favourite among hot rodders around the world with 32 Deuce coupe as their icon.
During the war Ford completely shut down civilian vehicle production to dedicate all its resources to the Allied war efforts (1942-45) They used to build B-24 bombers, aircraft engines, jeeps, M-4 tanks, military trucks and Bren-gun carriers and more than 30,000 super-charged Rolls Royce Merlin V-12 engines for Mosquito and Lancaster bombers as well as P-51 Mustang fighters. After the war Ford cars in the USA got bigger and flashier along with their competitors. In the 60's Ford was back in the forefront again when introducing their commercial hit Mustang in 1964. Mustang was so popular the competition had to follow Ford's example and the ponycar phenomenon took over the US. Over the years the ponies grew some muscles until the oil crisis kill finally killed them off.
In the sixties Ford rushed into international motor sports scene with a fury. After unsuccessful Ferrari takeover, when Enzo Ferrari had cut the deal off with Henry Ford II making the latter absolutely boil with fury, Ford turned to Lola in UK to produce a Ferrari beating long distance racer after. The collaboration between Ford and Lola created the mighty Ford GT40 that absolutely beat Ferrari in Le Mans 24 numerous times.
In Europe, Ford introduced some of the most epic race and rally cars of the 60's based on humble family sedans; Cortina GT, Lotus Cortina, Escort Twin Cam, and Escort 1600RS with the iconic Cosworth BDA engines.
