1969 Ford Mustang BOSS 429 Video V8TV Muscle Car Of The Week Episode  

I couldn't agree more! Weird as it is the 1970 is about my 4th favorite model even though it was damn near identical, but if given the choice I'd gladly take a 69 Boss 429 over even a 67 Shelby any day of the week.

Amen

Nah the perfect stang is from 99-04 stang very sexy

To soul flyer, Because the EPA doesn't allow room for common sense.

How about a Elenor?

Anyone that would let a boss mustang of either flavor sit and rust should be flogged, what a waste.

I had the same with an 80's Bronco II, it is still there but I don't have the money nor space to take it

And who cares?

Sorry about the bad day, but glad you enjoyed the car! We all appreciate the feedback, thanks for the kind words!

they were concerned they wouldn't make it to warranty .the more horse power they gave them ,the more they would be trashed on.

Hell,my Boss 302 was faster in the quarter than that!

Now the wife should return the favor...... Sware to God... i have the same story... And the wife gave me back my 66 fairlane GT convertible... frame off, professionally restored. With the 390 and 4speed top loader... Just like when i was a kid, except now she is there to enjoy it with me! And boy we roll it till the wheels fall off...... No trailer queen here...

+bgh70 Thanks for the note, we apologize for the slip of the tongue. We've made an annotation noting the error in the video. Thanks!

+bgh70 Yes you are correct!

+MuscleCarOfTheWeek great episode as usual..Kevin, when you, & the crew have a chance checkout a movie called " John Wick " from earlier this year..the Boss 9, & the LS6 in it are bad ass. Plus the movie itself is a fun watch.

+bgh70 I thought the block was from the Lincoln 460 ?

@butchtropic John Kassie Racing is the name of the company

Gotta love both but we all know Porsches are superior

Boss 429 were mid 13's the Boss 302 was high 14's that's 10+ car lengths of separations. Even the 428CJ would get spanked without a break.

The Boss 351 outran both of them. Well, in the quarter, anyway...

@Ed F booboo Ya know, you could actually LOOK IT UP like I did. It's not a secret, lol

I watched a video of a stock 69 429 boss run a 13-6 at 105 I believe. Very fast for the day. A good running well tuned up 429 boss was pretty much the fastest Mustang, 428 Cobra Jet was more consistent, and very fast of course as well

Eh, episode #89 is close enough. ;-)

Yep, I would had definitely hit him!

Freakin beauty, rare and $$$$. But they were kinda dogs. Undercarbed, under cammed , poor mid range, super cold starting and poor breathing, they were rushed into production in 69 to compete with the 426 hemi. Do I wish I had one? Of course, but they were heavy and not super fast, 340 six pack dusters and challengers gave them trouble. I have a book about these cars. This one here is gorgeous..... Probably would fetch $400,000 at mecum

It was a good trade. You'd never get over killing a small child. I wrecked my first car, a 1971 Mach 1 to avoid hitting a tiny child too - and this baby girl was too young to talk. She ran out from behind a car parked on the side of the road. I barely missed her. Her mom was on her porch talking to a friend and not paying any attention to her baby girl. Luckily, my car wasn't totaled. Unfortunately, I only had liability insurance so I never got the fender and grill fixed. The mom was crying saying thank you, thank you.... I was a well mannered high school senior. But I was also pissed off. I shouted at her, "Watch your child!". I was not mad because I wrecked my car. But I was furious because I almost killed a small child - a child she was supposed to be watching. I had nightmares about that for a while even though the kid wasn't injured.

You did good man! I hope you get your dream car one of this days.

Kudos Jim -- like has been said it's only a car after all. Absolutely no comparison to one's life. I also sacrificed my '68 GT Shelby vert but hey, we can always say we had one at least for a while. There aren't many who can say that and a hellova lot more who wish they could. Cheers Jim

You are way too kind Colin! Thanks for the nice words, we're lucky to share these cars with you!

You're right, my bad but It took you five years to think about it, you're kind of slow asshole...

You are correct. Completely different engine.

Bet the tire smoke was thick. Lol

???????????

You literally just described ALL muscle cars lol

Les Brown....there's not one piece of shit part produced by Garbage Motors on that chevy-eating Mustang.... #ChevyOwnersSuckDick

Branon has obviously had his ass stomped plenty by those POS GM cars. Yeah, a well built big block Chevy will give anything a good run for it's money and usually be the one to take that money home.

Live Wire The Camaro never had a Hemi motor in it it was just your normal big block

LOL, bass, I never said they did. Read the comment again.

The problem with Ford in 1969 is they would not build a striped Car that Henry 2 Wouldn't Drive! Both Dodge and GM were striping there cars and leaving them unstreet able Ford would not build and sell Cars like this! The Boss 429 could be a strong Runner if it had the 600 lift cam and gutted the car like GM and Dodge did!

Yeah ,ofcourse a stick. Anyone putting a auto in that beast should be shot. If it had a auto a woman could drive it. No way, that's a MANS CAR.

The Boss 429 is one of my favorite Ford's though for sure. I'd have to say my favorite Ford is a 70 Mercury Cyclone 429 SCJ/ 4 speed with the 3.91 or 4.30 Drag Pack. The 68-71 Torinos and Cyclones were bad ass looking cars, especially the CJ and SCJ versions

69’s were colour coded 70’s came with the black scoop
