Keith Anderson red 70ies Boss with the proper background of a Shelby, setting it still apart. Updated 2002: Keith sold the Boss 302 in 2002 to a friend in NC in order to fund a Boss 429 resto.


The famous independent Hinchcliff Trans-Am racer, owned today by Terry Bookheimer. Number 41 is still raced today. Have a look inside the car for its spartanous interior. When Trans-American Sedan Championship was begun in 1966, virtually every car in the series was privately prepared and entered. By the 1970 season, factory cars had become so prevalent and their resources so vast that few private cars remained. But when factory money became scarce in 1971, private entrants again filled the grid. One was Ford Engineer Ed Hinchcliff who, using his own resources and some Ford connections, built a well-executed contemporary Trans-Am Mustang Boss 302 on his own time and in his own shop outside Detroit. The car looked good and acquitted itself well on the track, finishing 8th at St. Jovite, 10th at Watkins Glen and 13th at Bryar. After Trans-Am duty, it was sold and later campaigned in regional SCCA events. It was discovered in a field in upstate New York in the 1980’s and has been restored to it’s original, as-raced in 1971 condition.


Although without its engine, this 302 racer still looks fast. Clean inside and outside throughout.
