- 1971 mustang Mach 1, 429CJ, J Code SOLD 3/2016
1971 Boss 351 Mustang
Medium Yellow Gold
From Kim Miller Collection
I have tried to find out when Ford stopped production of the 429 Mustangs/Cougars.
(I also read somewhere the 429 Cougars were built on the same assembly line as the 429 Mustangs, anyone heard that?).
I know they were only built at the Dearborn factory. Does anyone know what actual month they stopped building them? All I have ever read was simply "mid year" the 429 engines were no longer available.
Anyone have an idea or seen any sort of documentation on this subject? I checked the 429 Mustang/Cougar Megasite but did not see that information. All I found there was that there were 429 cars produced in August of 1970 but they were not available or sold to the public until September of 1970. I have seen nothing about when the last 429 car was produced or when Ford officially dropped the availability of the 429 engine option.
