1970 was the Boss Mustang's second year as part of the FoMoCo's lineup. These were built to compete with the Chevrolet Camaro Z/28 and the Sports Car Club of America's Trans-Am racing series. The Boss 302 was powered by a modified 302-cid V8 engine that delivered 290 horsepower in addition to a handling suspensi9on, quicker steering, and F60x15 tires.

SCCA racing regulations required at least 6,500 Boss 302s had to built. Ford meat - and exceeded - those requirements by producing 6,319 examples for 1970.

The Boss 302 could run the quarter-mile in 14.9 seconds at 93.4 mph (according to road tests performed in Car & Driver).

This Mustang was built on February 12th of 1970. This car has the optional 'shaker' hood scoop, rear window slats, rear spoiler, AM Radio with 8-track, and traction-lok differential, along with Goodyear Polyglas white letter tires on Magnum 500 wheels. The car has an older rotisserie restoration which still shows well in modern times.

In 2010, this Mustang was offered for sale at the Vintage Motor Cars of Meadow Brook presented by RM Auctions. The car was estimated to sell for $50,000 - $60,000. As bidding came to a close, the car had been sold for the sum of $49,500 including buyer's premium.
