A Blast From The Past ! 1,200 H.P. From The Factory !
:notworthy: :notworthy: :notworthy: :notworthy:
Here is a little history lesson for you. To bad they do not make factory cars like this anymore.
The Lawman's Super Boss 429
1970 Super Boss 429 - used by the American Command Drag Team (later United States Performance Team) for training of the european and south east asian US army guys. 6 of them have been reshipped to the US acc.
This SUPER BOSS 429 (VIN 0F02Z110-429 KK 2155) has been found and is unrestored and was last year on sale via Orlando Mustang. Pete Geissler offered this unique car in the name of Elton Al. Eckstrand - the LAWMAN himself. The car was sold in the meantime twice and is currently (Oct.2001) owned by Dennis & Kim Collins.
This very special BOSS cost 23.000 dollar to build back in those heydays from Ford. The radiator and 2 batteries were placed in the trunk. Engine dyno tests prooved 780HP - probably on the flywheel, but back then it was not tested on dynos and 1200HP were a common statement for this car. :o
The power is transferred via an automatic transmission to the big rear tires. The car is still grabber blue with a white interior and has only 720 miles on its odometer due to its use for drag race only.
