When introduced in 1969, the Boss 302 quickly etched itself into the legendary corner of American muscle cars establishing itself as one of the greatest road and race cars of the era. It is now one of the most collectible.

The Boss 302 was launched at the same time as its big-block brother, the Boss 429. Both were positioned as competition specials among Ford's huge offering of some nine V8s – the ‘economy’ 302, 351 Windsor, 351 Cleveland, 390, 428 Cobra Jet, 428 Super Cobra Jet, 429 ‘wedge’, Boss 302 and Boss 429.

For the Boss 302, Ford’s high-compression 302ci small-block V8 was beefed up with four-bolt main bearing caps and redesigned ‘Cleveland’ cylinder heads with bigger inlet and exhaust valves, and ports that allowed the engine to breathe more efficiently.

These ‘semi-hemi’ heads were based on the Ford 427ci racing engine’s combustion chambers, and a balanced forged steel crankshaft and forged steel conrods allowed the engine to handle high rpms for sustained periods. A single 780cfm four-barrel Holley carburettor sat atop a high-rise aluminium inlet manifold, while a dual-point distributor, high-pressure oil pump, windage tray and screw-in welch plugs were further indications of its competition intent.

A rev limiter was fitted, progressively cutting spark from 5800rpm to 6150, but it was easily bypassed and the Boss 302 could reportedly keep making power up to 8000rpm with minor mods.

Two four-speed manual Top Loader transmissions were available: a wide-ratio ’box with Hurst shifter more suited to street and strip use, and a close-ratio unit for racing. Adding to the race or road options list were four diffs: the stock 3.5:1 nine-inch, Traction-Lok 3.5:1 and 3.91:1 and the No-Spin 4.30:1 built by Detroit Automotive. Axles and diff centres were also strengthened to take the loads.

In 1969 Ford built 299,036 Mustangs of which 133,801 were Sportsroof cars. Of these, 1,628 were built with a 302-4V Boss engines. Of these, 1,238 came with Close Ratio 4-Speed Transmission.140 of these were painted Wimbledon White. Of which 45 had Black Hi-Back Bucket Seats.14 of these had Magnum 500 Chrome Wheels.11 of those had Sport Slats and a rear Deck Spoilers. Of which 8 came with 3.91 Traction-Lok Axles. Of these 4 were ordered with Tachometers. 1 of those had Tinted Glass and a Console.

For sale is this unique Boss 302 Mustang.
