It was Ford's intent to win at NASCAR, and homologation rules allowed the company to utilize its new Boss 429 motor in a production car. Production of the Boss 429 began in 1968 at Kar Kraft’s assembly facility in Brighton, Michigan. The Boss 429 CI V-8 engine was ridiculously underrated at the advertised 375 HP and 450 lb-ft of torque. With only a 2-year production run in ’69 and 1970, they are among the rarest, most sought after Mustangs in the world. 1358 Boss 429s were made, 859 in 1969, and 499 in 1970.
