Jada Toys 1/24 1970 Ford Mustang Boss 429 Hardtop Blue

Story about the car:

For collectors, there are few Mustangs as highly prized as the Boss 429, largely due to its scarcity. While the Boss 429 is now known as one of the most revered, and highly desirable Mustangs to have ever been sold, this level of notoriety was never expected during the day in which the car was built.

In truth, the Boss 429’s only reason for reaching production was to homologate its powerplant for future NASCAR use. As a result, Ford gave little thought toward marketing the legendary Mustang, which led to less than stellar sales.

The Boss 429 weathered only two years of production (1969-1970), before being dropped from the Mustang lineup. In all actuality, little separated the 1970 Boss 429 from its earlier counterpart from the year prior. Only a handful of modest cosmetic revisions and subtle engine modifications differentiate each of the two-year models from one another.
