Jimjific 23 Report post Posted January 21, 2014 Just saw this one on e-bay http://www.ebay.com/itm/Ford-Mustang-Boss-429-1969-boss-429-/171219468169?forcerrptr=true&hash=item27dd79bf89&item=171219468169&pt=US_Cars_Trucks This has always been my dream car including the color. It's even built just 3 days after I was born. Well, until I become a multimillionaire, I'll have to stick with Ol' Blue. Jim Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Jimjific 23 Report post Posted January 22, 2014 I actually have a story about e-bay and a Boss 429. Back around 2000 when e-bay was new and fun to look at, I used to look at Mustangs all the time. Whenever a Boss 429 became available (They used to sell for just over $100K back then) I would bid around 30-40K and be the high bidder and tell the wife I am the current owner of a Boss 429 just for fun. Knowing full well that either the reserve wasn't met or I would be outbid anyway. If I wasn't, I surely would have scrounged up $30K to pay for one in a hart beat. Anyway, one day the wife is on e-bay and see's a Boss 429 and asks should she bid our typical $30K on it. I say sure go ahead. So she goes ahead and bids but accidentally adds an extra zero making our max bid $300K. Needless to say we were the high bidder and would most likely win the car. The panic in my wife's face was priceless and I still get a good chuckle at it today. She was affraid to do anything with e-bay for quite a while after that. I guess it's funny now that that bid wouldn't win this car today. Jim Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Jimjific 23 Report post Posted January 27, 2014 Seems that there is another one. http://www.ebay.com/itm/Ford-Mustang-Boss-429-15-000-original-documented-miles-/281253658756?forcerrptr=true&hash=item417c064084&item=281253658756&pt=US_Cars_Trucks This ones a bargain since it is 100K cheaper. Interesting that the motor got destroyed with so little miles. It must have seen some quarter miles. Also, there is a good shot of the backside of the hood scoop. Pretty bad fit. It doesn't look like they tried to contour it at to match the hood details. Jim Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
