Market commentary
This European Boss 429 is typical of the way these beasts looked in the US ten years ago: neglected and ignored. Not so today where they have become highly sought Big Block Pony Cars. This one would be laughed off the block at any self respecting US sale. It was a no sale at the Seroka auction in West Palm in 1991 at $31,000, and at Kruse Auburn Fall later that year. At the time it was claimed to be a 61,000 original mile car, and the odometer shows only 64,448 today. It is no bargain at this price.
