9F02G187360 is the VIN to remember with this car. In Bright Yellow Paint with black Kiwi Vynil Standard Bucket seats it stands out by itself at any car show, but the sign with the history of that car makes the big difference. We talked to a typical Boss 302 owner couple here.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 




A 1969 Boss 302 that helped to design the AAR Cuda and the T/A Challenger

Rick and Peg were invited to the Ford display with their unique Boss 302 and well you think, you get the best place on the track to display your car. And that's what they got. The car really stood out of the crowd. Others did not envy Rick and Peg sitting on the hot tar without any shadow, but that's true Boss 302 passion that both went through.
"I am fortunate to have my wife Peg with me" said Rick. "Not all women like to go to car shows with their guys, but Peg is really with me in this. Without that you can't really stand something like this". 

"This car was purchased in 1969 by the Chrysler Corporation from Ed Schmid Ford in Ferndale, Michigan. Chrysler used this car to develop the AAR Cuda and the T/A Challenger. This is the only one Chrysler ever purchased. All of the original paperwork, the bill of sale, warranyty card and the application for Michigan title has remained with the car. 
This is the only Boss 302 to ever win the MCA Authenticity Award in 2008. 
An original set of Goodyear tires, an original Autolite battery and shocks, "virgin" sheet metal and NOS parts. 
Painted with Enamel paint in 1981."
