1970 Ford Mustang Boss 302
Sold Why we picked it
VIN 0F02G130457 carries the G code for a real Boss 302. It is a 4-speed car that has been with the seller since 2002. It was restored with rust repair and a refinish in Calypso Coral, and it got a replacement camshaft and a rack-and-pinion conversion. The seller says it has won show awards. The listing shows 95,250 miles, true mileage unknown. Clean Texas title.
The listing does not call it numbers-matching. It shows wear since the refurbishment, and the aftermarket A/C does not work. The bid stands at $32,250 with the auction ending October 14. Expect it to climb a long way before the end.
The value check
When we found it, the bid was $40,500. Comparable cars in the same condition have sold for $56,000–$83,000, so the middle of the market is about $69,500. That put this car 42% under.
Driver-grade, high-mile or modified Boss 302s sold for $56k-$83k over the last year (GAA, BaT, Mecum); concours cars run well past $100k. Current bid is about 54% under the driver-grade midpoint with 11 days left, and bids usually climb.

What to check
- Ask for proof of the original block and date codes; a non-original engine takes a large cut off Boss value
- Get a Marti Report to confirm the color, options and Boss build
- Check the quality of the rust repair in the floors, torque boxes, cowl and rear frame rails
- The rack-and-pinion conversion and replaced cam are departures from stock for a collector
- Aftermarket A/C is inoperable
- TMU mileage and no stated reserve status
Making it drive like new
Already has rack-and-pinion steering. Add front disc brakes if they are not already fitted, a modern ignition and fresh suspension bushings. Keep the original Boss parts boxed so the car can go back to stock.
