1970 Ford Mustang Boss 302 4-Speed

This 1970 Ford Mustang Boss 302 was delivered new to Clem Smalley Ford of Muskogee, Oklahoma on July 8, 1970. The car is finished in Wimbledon White with black stripes over a Vermillion interior and power is provided by a replacement 302ci V8 paired with a four-speed close-ratio manual transmission. Features include a Shaker hood scoop, rear window louvers, a front spoiler, 15″ Magnum 500-style wheels, Koni shock absorbers, power-assisted front disc brakes, a tachometer, a Hurst T-handle shifter, and a push-button AM/FM radio. The car is said to have been used in the movie Trading Paint and was acquired by the owner in 2018. This Boss 302 is offered in Florida on dealership consignment with a Deluxe Marti Report, owner’s literature, original sales paperwork, a window sticker copy, and a Tennessee title.

The car is finished in the factory Wimbledon White (M). The tail panel and deck lid are finished in satin black, and the hood and sides of the car are striped in black. Features include a Clem Smalley Ford badge on the rear fender, Shaker hood scoop, rear window louvers, a front spoiler, chrome bumpers, body-colored racing mirrors, reverse lamps, and a fender-mounted antenna. The seller notes rust bubbles on the driver’s door skin.

Chrome 15″ Magnum 500 wheels wear Mustang-emblem center caps and are mounted with F 60-15 Goodyear Polyglas GT white letter tires. The car is equipped with Koni shock absorbers and braking is provided by power-assisted front discs and rear drums.

The cabin features high-back bucket front seats trimmed in Vermillion Corinthian vinyl with perforated inserts and matching door trim panels. Features include a Hurst T-handle shifter, push-button AM/FM radio, and a heater/defroster.

The two-spoke steering wheel frames a 120-mph speedometer, a tachometer, and gauges for engine temperature and fuel level. The five-digit odometer shows 78k miles, a handful of which have been added under current ownership. Total mileage is unknown.

The replacement G-code 302ci V8 features a four-barrel carburetor and was factory rated at 290 horsepower and 290 lb-ft of torque. Features include a shaker scoop and smog equipment as well as Boss 302 branding on the valve covers. The fuel pump was reportedly rebuilt in preparation for sale.

Power is delivered to the rear wheels through a four-speed close-ratio manual transmission. The car was delivered with a 3.50:1 open rear axle per handwritten documentation but was later converted to a 3.91:1 rear axle. Corrosion is visible on underbody components.
