The Mustang 1969 Boss 429
The Boss 429 was a hand-built muscle car intended solely to satisfy the homologating rules of NASCAR. The coupe was longer than previous models and sported convex rather than concave side "lines".Ford also introduced a luxury Grande model equipped with interior wood paneling, a quartz clock, and a 351 cid Windsor engine.
Only available from 1969 and 1970, the Boss 429 came standard with a Mustang SportsRoof (the new corporate name for the fastback) and the new Mach 1 muscle car version’s deluxe interior. It sported none of the garish decals and paint schemes of the day; only a hood scoop and 15 in (380 mm) "Magnum 500" wheels fitted with Goodyear "Polyglas" tires, with a small "BOSS 429" decal on each front fender.
