This 1969 Ford Mustang is one of a claimed 17 produced as an officially licensed Boss 429 continuation by Classic Recreations. Each began with a 1969 Mustang body that was modified in the style of a Boss 429, while under the bodywork an 815-horsepower 546ci V8 was installed and mated to a six-speed Tremec manual transmission. A four-link rear suspension, tubular upper and lower front control arms, adjustable coilovers, and chassis reinforcements highlight the suspension modifications, and forged 18″ American Racing wheels were also installed along with Wilwood brakes, custom gauges, TMI high-back bucket seats, an aluminum steering wheel, air conditioning, and a center console. This example was reportedly used as the SEMA show vehicle in 2020, and it has since been fitted with a Jon Kaase Racing Engines 572ci “Boss Nine” V8. Driven approximately 615 miles since completion, this continuation Boss 429 is now offered in California on dealer consignment with a clean Florida title.
Classic Recreations began with a 1969 Mustang and refreshed the exterior with Boss 429 details. The car has a hood scoop, quarter-panel scoops, a front spoiler, Boss 429 fender badges, and modern lighting. The bumpers were painted to match the exterior, which was specified in Vengeance Black.
The car rides on a modified suspension with a four-link rear end, tubular upper and lower front control arms, front and rear sway bars, and adjustable coilovers. The chassis was reinforced, and the car also has power steering.v
The forged 18″ American Racing wheels are mounted with Michelin tires and cover Wilwood slotted-and cross-drilled rotors with six- and four-piston calipers front and rear, respectively.
TMI front bucket seats were installed along with a custom center console, and the front occupants are secured by RJS harnesses. Air conditioning and a custom sound system linked to a Pioneer CD stereo were also installed.
A Lecarra aluminum steering wheel frames custom Classic Restorations gauges highlighted by a 200-mph speedometer and a 10k-rpm tachometer. The odometer reads 615 miles, which is said to represent the distance driven since completion.
Originally built by Classic Restorations with a 546ci V8, the car has since been fitted with a Kaase Racing Engines 572ci “Boss Nine” V8. The engine has a 4340 steel crankshaft and connecting rods, Diamond forged pistons, aluminum cylinder heads, WW Engineering aluminum roller rockers, and a single-plane intake manifold. The Holley electronic fuel injection system is linked to a fuel cell mounted in the trunk. A Be Cool radiator and a yellow-top Optima battery have also been installed.
The Tremec six-speed manual transmission is linked to to 9″ rear end with a 3.70 Positraction differential. The tubular headers are linked to a custom dual 3″ exhaust system with a crossover pipe and MagnaFlow mufflers with exits ahead of the rear axle.
The car is titled to serial number 9F01F104236, which decodes as a 1969 Mustang hardtop equipped with a 302ci V8. The serial plate is a replacement.
