I think that the 70 boss is one of the best styling cars of that period

The body style of that period is a work of art. Some of the cars go overboard with the cheesy decor, such as fake hood scoops.

Main Street Band I’m a mustang fan and I think those early 70’s camaros are hot

Sharpest looking Muscle car EVER. If I was a millionare I would by me two of these. A green 302 and a Blue 429.😊

I was 18 years old and the 1970 Boss 302 was my first brand new car ,ordered it with the sports slats, rear spoiler ,8-track tape player close ratio four speed , grabber green and it was a little more than $3,800 , I loved that car !

Thats awesome man. My dad also had a 67 GT that he bought new. But his had the K-Code 289-4 speed. He was a mechanic at a Ford dealer so he did a few aftermarket mods to it...a bit bigger carb, headers, better flowing cylinder heads, and a more aggressive camshaft. It was pushing a lot more than 271 horsepower after he got done with it...thats for damn sure

@@danielcannon4727 I didn't care for the Superbird because of the required vinyl top -- just looked dumb for a car intended to homologate a race car. The T/A was a wonderful car as was the Duster 340 that year.

In 1981 I was a high school junior and bought my second car from a shady fellow student, a (stolen, which I was unaware of) 1970 boss 302 for $850. In good shape inside and out, it cranked but wouldn't start. Towed it home replaced a bad distributor cap then enjoyed one of the three happiest moments of my life as I grabbed rubber in all 4 gears (3.91 rear gear with skinny tires). Florida DMV didn't notice the title was a Ford Maverick and registered it. The ridiculously inadequate FL insurance minimum requirements let me "insure" it for $120/year! Had to sell it after a year and 4 months to pay for all my tickets and lawyer fees. But what a year! That 7000 RPM redline with solid lifters! A unique and beautiful sound

I've got to agree; the '70 Mustangs looked good, but I just like the '69s a lot better.

My favorite...I love them all...but the 1970 boss is my favorite.

I just purchased a 1970 Boss 302 it needs the motor rebuilt and fresh paint but its a California car no rust and I'm ecstatic!

I bought mine in '76 for $1750 with 51K miles on it. Loved it for the most part. No A/C made for steamy nights cruising in Oklahoma. Sold it for 5K in '81. Mistake

Back in high school, in the mid-70s, a pal of mine had a Boss 302. In terms of raw power it certainly wasn't the fastest car in the parking lot....but, still, it carried an undeniable cool factor.

Gorgeous Mustang. Simply born to race!

Thanks so much for presenting this Mustang, one of the favorites of my childhood. In '70, my Dad was one of two engine builders at Bud Moore Engineering in Spartanburg, South Carolina. And the year before, he built engines at Gene White Firestone in Atlanta, with Pete Hamilton driving a Camaro. And who'd have thunk that all these decades later, the cars of that era would remain our all-time favorites, if only in our dreams, as their values skyrocket.

I had a crew member's license and I enjoyed those race day experiences. And the '94 Bud Moore Thunderbird in the Motorcraft livery was a very bad boy, even featured a year or so ago in Road and Track magazine.

@@markw208 I thought about you today because as I was riding my bike--a road bicycle--on Rt. 16 in Waynesboro, Pennsylvania, I was overtaken by a bunch of Harleys on a summer run and then by a '70 Boss Mustang, yellow-and-black like the one featured in this video. There is a lot to see on the roads of Central Pennsylvania and I do admire the classic cars and motorcycles--even the beat-up ones like a local '69 Torino with mags and dents and it looks like it is running three laps down at Riverside. Big fun. And I do have to say good for you, Mark, that back in the day, you actually did it, you bought a Boss Mustang. And sure, maybe it wasn't the best one, but you made it happen and you didn't just talk about it. And I did the same thing with motocross motorcycles--I never had the time or money to race 'em, but I bought three of them and, arg, had to part with them for one reason or another. And my first one, well, I never actually rode it after I bought it from a high school friend in Germany for $200 in '76. It was a '73 Maico 250 and it ran like wildfire when I tested it, but by the time I got it, he had blown the engine and I couldn't get it running so it languished in the basement of an apartment building and I kept riding my bicycles--happily--until I got a couple of 125 Elsinores in Canton, Ohio in '78, not to mention a daily driver '69 Impala for $150. O my, all the cool stuff back then. And it was cool to see the big-time racing scene up close and in person as a kid, and I just had the sense to appreciate it at the time--and to participate as I could by reading magazines and building model cars and always riding my Schwinn Sting-Ray like I was racing at Watkins Glen or Riverside or Le Mans or Baja. And it was pretend and it was real and it was fun, and I even won a handful of bike races and model car contests--and in the Auto World Car Model Catalog, the August '74 edition I think it was, one of my cars was like the Model of the Month or something. It was a dragster with a scratch-built brass frame and a fiberglass body, and Auto World sent me a huge box with ten kits or so as my prize--and, well, when you're a kid, that's a big prize, it was epic and I still appreciate it. And we were living back in California in '74--we had returned at the close of the '70 Trans-Am season and my Dad never did anything more with auto mechanics but he did work with the Pettys when they ran Riverside and Ontario from '71 to '74. And then we moved to Frankfurt, West Germany and my Dad got into old BMW motorcycles and I rode my bikes and it was quite a ride to be an American teen in Europe in the middle of the Seventies. And my little thumbnail is of me doing my Evel Knievel thing on my Sting-Ray in Frankfurt in early '75. And sometimes, German kids would come over from their apartment complex and I'd go over to theirs. And it was all about showing off and talking about racing and standing on the gas. All the fun stuff way back when and, again, I commend you, Mark, for getting behind the wheel of your Boss 302 Mustang back then.

Had a chance to buy one of these 8 yrs ago for 40g thought it was a little too much for an unrestored barn find. Still love these old cars.

Hi Kevin, Your commentary on this car was outstanding. Learned quite a bit. Thank you, Lou

The window sticker says Detroit Locker, but the burnout looks like it has a Traction Lock with worn out clutches. Still a very cool car, and I'd love to have one.

I noticed that also.

Had the same car with the same paint theme, only it came with the 351 Cleveland. Didn't have front disc brakes, so stopping was fun. When I bought it, it had a 351 W out of a 69 Mustang. I loved that car until the tail shaft bearing went out in the transmission, and I had orders to Germany, so I had to sell the car. I did have tears in my eyes when it left my Dad's driveway. It was seen at the Houston Drag strip, but I never went there, afraid people would see a 50 something man cry if that car was on the track. Thanks for the history lesson, and the very fond memory.

i was 13 in '70. loved them then and now. thanks for the vid.

The CobraJet (and Super CobraJet) was a 428 in 69 and 70 and not a "CobraJet 429" as mentioned. In 69 and 70 you could get a 200 or 250 I6, or 302, 351, 390, 428 CJ or SCJ or a Boss 302 or Boss 429. But not a 429 CJ The 429 CJ and SCJ was fitted to the Mustang when the larger model arrived in 71. But was soon dropped due to the energy crisis and emissions concerns of the early 70's. A 351 CJ was also offered during the 71 to 73 model run.

Literaly my favorite car, loved the video thanks guys!

69 and 70 Boss' are my favourite Mustangs.

One of my all time favorite cars and color

Absolutely beautiful!

Great video! One of my favorite cars. They also had rolled wheel well lips for the lowered stance.

Thanks Kevin, Awesome job!

Love the color!

Great car and gave you a thumbs up.

Love this show. Keep it up

Nice video, nice Mustang

My favorite Stang ever made is a 69-70 Boss 302 because of the engine and suspension. But I still think the 67-68 body style is the best looking

Back when they made beautiful cars.Todays shit can,t even come close to those beautiful lines. The Boss 302 was Camaro eater.

I hate Mustangs, but that 302 had way more than 290 horse!

I saw this car when I was 7

Seems like you guys have done different colored 70 Boss 302's. How about doing a 70 351 Mach 1?

Was the advertised HP and torque numbers correct ? Or, like so many performance cars back then, were they down played.

“The Cobra Jet 429”🤔

Were they ever Dyno'd back in the day to see who much HP/TQ they really made?

The rear wing looks like its angled for lift rather than downforce? - Lovely car though!

Great video! I love these cars, but I wonder how much interest there will be in them when those of us who were born in the last half of the 20th century pass on? I'm sure that some of them will still be popular, but do you think their values will hold up at the levels they are at today? Will the millennials be willing/able to pay 6 or 7 figures for a classic muscle car that they have little-to-no emotional connection to? Just wondering.

That price is the equivalent of $29,008.42 of today's money. Still not bad.

I am with you on this one. The way many owners have that rear wing it actually creates lift instead of downforce. They apparently never saw how Parnelli had that wing on number 15. As an 18 year old the first Boss 302 I ever saw was cruising the beach in S. Florida. It was yellow and with that black stripe I was hooked. Took me awhile and love my red Boss but I will never forget that yellow beauty.

No mention of how many ppl disconnected the factory rev limiter? Come on, Kevin. Lol

"competition yellow" or grabber? and it was 7014 produced.
