Bud Moore's Boss 302 Mustangs supplied by Kar Kraft enjoyed a very successful season in 1970. At the end of 1970, Kar Kraft provided four additional 'bodies in white' to Bud Moore engineering, identified as 1-1971 through 4-1971. When in the care of Bud Moore, the cars were christened BME nos. 1–4 and have been identified as such ever since. Sadly, as the 1971 season approached, the Ford Motor Company discontinued support for the Trans Am program. Thus, Bud Moore Engineering ran a shortened schedule. Just two of the four 'bodies in white' were used and one other was left in reserve as a back-up car.
This particular example, known as BME number 3, was the back-up car and remained in reserve the entire season, and was not called upon for competition. At the close of the season, both BME number 1 and number 2 were sold, but BME number 3 was retained by the team until 1972 when it was sold to Morris Davis of Punta Gorda, Florida, and was fitted with a 351 cubic-inch V8.
The car's first subsequent race was in the Paul Revere 250 at Daytona where it was driven by Dan Daughtry. Unfortunately, it retired after 28 laps due to mechanical problems.
In late 1973, the car was acquired by Len Cammack of New Jersey and was raced by NASCAR driver Wendell Scott in the IMSA GT series through 1975 with some success. The car was eventually sidelined due to financial reasons and its inability to keep pace with the newer cars in the series. The car was then parked at Scott's facilities in Danville, Virginia, where it would remain until 1984 when it was purchased by Mike Durham.
Durham began a restoration but later sold it mid-restoration in 1988 to Mark Hereford. Hereford completed the work in 1991. After the work was completed, it achieved a 100-point score in three SCCA concours events. Mark also raced the car at the 1992 Sears Point Wine Country Classic. BME no. 3 was then sold to Ken Epsman in 1995 and later to Jamey Mazzotta in 1999. Mazzotta raced the car in the Historic Trans-Am Series until it was purchased by Jim Click, who has continued to race the car. In 2015, it won the Trans AM race at the Monterey Historics.By Daniel Vaughan | Nov 2016
