Condition
#1 Concours
World-class. Could compete in the world’s best Concours d'Elegance events.
From the Kirt Fryer collection. Paint and body have been done to perfectionist standards. The engine has been meticulously redone as well as the underbody. The interior is immaculate and unused. A recent perfectionist restoration over an already sound car. It would be hard to find a better example of a '71 Boss 351. Most haven't gotten anywhere near this kind of treatment.
Market commentary
Sold at Barrett-Jackson Las Vegas in 2011 for $60,500, then again at Barrett-Jackson Scottsdale in 2014 for $66,000. Even with a recent concours quality treatment, this is a monumental result for a '71 Boss 351, but the new owner can at least take solace in the fact that nobody else has a nicer one. Mustang people say these Boss 351s are vastly underrated for performance. The bidders here demonstrably accepted that position with a generous price.
