Secluff - I'm almost positive you know this but for the rest of us mere mortals I thought I'd refresh a few memories. For the 72 Model Year the HO was a drivetrain option available in all body types. 336 "05" Mach 1's were HO's which all came with the HO motor and 4 speed. The other 30 of the...

I used ChatOpenAI/GPT4 to write this quick paper about the 1971 Mustang Boss 351 Mustang. While not the best; not a bad write-up overall. "The 1971 Mustang Boss 351 is a true icon of American muscle cars. With its powerful engine, aggressive styling, and exceptional performance, it is no...

I have my old trusty Pioneer receiver and related equipment. Haven't turned it on in YEARS! LOL Ray

Might get lucky and have a member on here close to you (Utah) that has one or knows of one available. I'd place a wanted ad somehow on your local Craigslist and maybe local Facebook Marketplace. If you need to, put something you want to sell extra off your car on FB Marketplace and also...

Joe, a few more thoughts... Glad you were able to access that older thread. Wish more would look for those. Quite a few excellent threads from guys who know their stuff about these cars! I only thought I knew about them until I joined this forum! I haven't been online much lately, and I...

Nice to see another in good shape - WAY too many were sacrificed to supply parts for Mach's and some verts, mainly hoods, grills and bumpers. Boss 351's could use all but the bumpers. Ray

LOL. Will do! Ray

Sold some property where I had a few cars stored. Had to let some stuff go I intended to keep a while longer but now that they are gone - it isn't so bad. Two of the things I got rid of were Mustang parts cars. One, a 73 Mach 1 that had definitely seen better days and the other a 71 hardtop...

And I know I have said it before - but this is probably one of the nicest 1972 Mustangs. I would have to sell my convertible to buy it. And I have too much sentimental value in that car. I have both driven and ridden in Chuck's Mach 1. Always an enjoyable experience. I can only hope my Boss...

Kevken1959, Love that 72 R code convertible! Interesting - I have recently removed the rear honeycomb panel and pop open gas cap that I had added to my 72 Q 4spd convertible. Mine is very similar to the one you bought from my friend here in Oklahoma. I am in the process of removing and...

Was reading Tony-Muscle's post about 100+ mph lift and shake at a track event. Reminded me of some fun I had a few (MANY) years ago. Back in about 1981 or '82, I was participating with the Boss 351 in some Shelby Meet speed events. See my avatar pic. After a day of running on Hallett...

Best of luck in building your tribute. Thanks for the update posts and pics. Ray

Thought I'd bump this thread. Always looking for old slot car collections to buy!

Yeah you will notice Wimbledon white is what some call an eggshell white. We had a 75 Blazer and it had the Cheyenne woodgrain package with the white paint. That truck next to my Boss really showed the difference. The original white paint 73 Mustangs I have seen are similar with a vibrant white.

Sorry Steve - just saw this reply! Yeah I would appreciate any help. Thx. Ray
