Equipment
Kar Kraft 1371. One of the early Boss 429s with S NASCAR spec engine. 6,700 miles from new. Restored within the last decade by Bob Perkins who specializes in Boss Mustangs to its condition when it arrived at the original selling dealer in 1969, with all shipping and inspection tags and markings. Judged to 504 points out of 500 in MCA competition (due to complete documentation since new). Does not exhibit any signs of wear or usage.
Market commentary
Undoubtedly the best Boss 429 in the world, carefully and sympathetically restored. The price paid here today is simply astonishing and would be beyond belief if it werent witnessed by several hundred people. These cars were worth $40K six years ago. Jaws dropped when they began bringing nearly $100K two years ago, but this is double the highest price seen previously. A corrected chassis number has been requested from Kruse.
