This is Paul Walker’s 1969 Ford Mustang Boss 429, it was undoubtably one of the most quintessentially American vehicles in his impressive collection, and it’s been so well cared for it’s a testament to his genuine love for cars. Original Boss 429s are rare, but finding an example like this with all of its original body panels still in place, with its matching numbers NASCAR-derived engine, and just 14,575 miles on the odometer is like finding a unicorn.

All 429 Boss vehicles were based on the pre-existing 4-speed Cobra Jet Mustang, a new front apron assembly was installed by Ford at the factory along with reworked front fenders. After this the cars were sent to Kar Kraft for completion.

Kar Kraft knew they needed to shift some weight rearward as the new engine made the car nose heavy, they relocated the battery to the trunk and added a rear sway bar to help with handling. The cars were also fitted with an 8,000 rpm tachometer, AM radio, a front spoiler, an oil cooler, a Traction-Lock limited slip differential, and a manually operated hood scoop.

The Ford 429 cubic inch (7 litre) V8 was rated as producing 375 bhp at 5,200 rpm and 450 ft lbs of torque at 3,400 rpm. These figures have been somewhat controversial as it’s widely believed they were lower than the real figures, and Ford did have incentive to keep the power output figure below 400 bhp to keep insurance premiums from being unaffordable.
