It is not about the money or about the fame. It is about how much that man loved that car to keep it that clean after all those years. My deepest respect to him for keeping it so well.

I detail cars on the side. I just love when people treat there cars like this! Clean, Clean, Clean! What a true Survivor! Shawn

Great story. Adorable original owners. Early S-code Boss 9. Great taste in cars! ...All original. Monthly payment $55 bux a month...!!! Dale and Phyllis you made a great investment in your future. Enjoy your retirement!

To me that car is priceless. What a machine. I hope the buyer takes care of it.

King of The Mustangs

if i was rich i would go broke buying all the old muscle cars

Reading between the lines... I'll guess the low milage happened because they started a family. He bought the car new to celebrate his graduation. Got a job, bought a house, had a baby. Now the two door car is just not the best fit for the family. They bought something with four doors but he loved the car so it didn't get traded in. It went into the new garage for occasional use only. Lucky for Ford fans. Next issue: Ford did not build this car to beat all the muscle cars on the street. If they wanted to do that, they certainly could've. They needed a race engine for NASCAR competition. To qualify, they needed to sell at least 500 of these engines in production vehicles. That's why the carb limited power to 375 HP. The pump gas available limited the compression. The tiny carb obviated a need for dual exhaust but in 70 they added it to help sales. That package required a lower RPM range cam for street use. The heads, valves, block, intake, crank and rods, transmission and rear end were all race car ready. I guess a quick swap of carb and open dual exhaust would've added 50 HP for the street. Drag racers could've swapped the cam and pistons to run race gas or methanol. All those parts are very easy to change while it's very hard to accomplish a high RPM tuned induction and exhaust system and race engine short block. Ford provided the very difficult parts for the racing teams but it was right there for the hobbyist as well. This engine would have dominated NASCAR except the NASCAR organization changed their rules which eliminated the need for production. The value of the car cannot be argued. Once the hammer falls at the auction, the value of this asset is indisputable for that day and location. Now three years later, they'd probably open bidding at $300k with increments of 10, it might fetch $400k.

I love the vinyl smell, someone needs to make it into an air freshener! Beautiful car, it was definitely one of my favorites of the show. Very cool to hear the original owners talk about it. Thanks for the video!

This was truly a great investment, they got all the joy of owning the car and the sold it for a ridiculously high price! Awesome video and a great story.

one of my all time dream cars! Simply amazing!

Amazing story these days... almost unheard of provenance, thank you for sharing.

It's sad in a way to see someone have to let a car like this go. Not only does it have automotive historical significance, but it also has important family historical significance. I know this is an older video, but once again you show the great story behind the car. Thanks Rich!

Wow! A rare gem. Nice to see an authentic and totally original car that is just the way it was meant to be when it left the factory in 1969. Unlike the many over restored cars you see. I hope she has gone to a good home and remains just as she is. Thanks for sharing.

That’s an original car for sure 🔥

Very cool Rich thanks for sharing it . It would a a cool one to take home

My favorite car ever. Just actually saw a 69 fastback Mustang yesterday. Not a boss or Mach I but still looked nice.

How did that couple have 2 sons and only manage to drive the car 21,000 miles? Wow those boys must have really respected or feared their father lol

WOW!! $325K I hope its in good hands now,gorgeous gem.

What a story! So cool they kept it all these years too bad they decided to part with it, but hard to argue with the cash in hand!

Provenance out the waazoo! Talk about an appreciating asset. Great stuff

If I am not mistaken the reason ya see a difference in the hoodscoop color is the hood scoops were painted with lacquer at a different time at the car kraft plant .

My dream car simply beautiful all original 😍

Great example of where to use a microphone so that background noises can be turned way down. The owners can have some nice money from the sale and future generations can see this classic. But the sad part is that it will never be seen crusing the strip on Saturday night or be ripped on at the drag strip or just enjoyed for what it was built for.

Beautiful original survivor Boss! And one helluva price tag. 100 times the original cost roughly, wowzer.

Absolutely amazing to see such a rare piece of history not only in that condition but with the original owners. And for you people knocking it down your just jealous so shut the F up. It was sad to see it be sold and not keep it in the family for many more years to come but definitely understand why they did it. Thank you very much for sharing. That's definitely a dream car of mine! :-)

Real noisy background! As always beautiful car! Pete :")

It was an investment from the get go! Just like buying precious metals or stock market,I have a couple investments in my barn not worth quite as much but I'm still building interest in them right now,1957 Chevy truck a 1954 Ford f100 and a 70 Camaro ss

Incredible car & super nice people & story.

Outstanding!

what a beautiful car!!

Beautiful!

A real rare Mustang right there. Awesome price! Wow!!!

Very cool Rich, nice people and a super car

that engine's making a lot more HP than ford advertised

How much did it cost when they bought it? I don’t know if you could do that well in the stock market.

Amazing. Right at the 04:29 mark I saw a subtle dimple on the body line about 14" above the R in good year and just about 6" to the right . Watch the video from 4:28 -4:31 and see the reflection for the Ceiling light get distorted . At the 03:28 mark you see the minor damage to the fender lip just above the side marker light . I wouldn't restore it because it's a piece of history where all the dings and worn chrome prove its age .

Man who would want to sell that!?!?!? I couldnt imagine especially if I were the one that bought it off the lot..it wouldnt go anywhere but my kids the day I died!

Awesome ride I have 5 Mustang's 3 69's coupe, ragtop & a Mach1 & a 72 & 73 Mach 1, I also have a set of original Goodyear Polyglass tires from that era, they look great but they are a hard riding tire with no traction on wet pavement. The 69 body style has always been my favorite & the 72 a second fave. It's hard to believe this car when new could be had for less than $6000.00, my real stupid mistake a few year's ago 1987. I passed up a deal for a 1968 Shelby GT 500 with an extra 428 for $17,000.00 Lime green 4 speed, posi you know how hind sight is 20 20.

wow super original shape 325g wow they were happy they keep it all those years a grad present 85 bucks per month payments back then was a lot but what a great investment it was awesome

hmmm nice investment. for the original owners and new owners.

beautiful

That car will give them their retirement

wow orignal owners thats cool if been me buying the car i would want a picture of them the owners

Awesome Car!

Imagine buying a car in 1968 driving it , loving it then in 2019 it's at a Auction and you feel the car has reached the end of the road

Awesome!

The reason the scoop looks different is the '69 Boss 429's were notorious for cooking the paint right off the scoops. Ford had so many warranty issues with the painted scoops they ended up going to the black (heat resistant) hood scoops in 1970 (an old Ford guy and now recently retired multi degreed Engineer who worked 32 years at America's largest defense contractor.

He's a better man than me. by 1974 that thing would have been completely worn out.

Original gas ?

Wow what a rare find...You can tell by the off color that the hood scoop has been repainted...the '69's were notorious for cooking the paint on the hood scoops due to the heat of the Boss 429 Engine...that's why Ford went to flat black hood scoops in '70.

What a great car! Perhaps I'm wrong on this, but from what I've seen, the 429 isn't exactly what one would consider a daily driver. It's not the power, but overall drivability around town. The Chrysler Hemi back in the day had similar driving matters. Still, that doesn't make this beauty less of a car in any way! My father had a 428 Cobra Jet that looked just like this car with a slightly smaller hood scoop. Same color and all. I was just a little kid, but I still remember driving it off of the dealers lot back when it was brand new. Courtesy of gasoline rationing and horrible fuel mileage, he traded it for a '74 Opel Manta (A). Grr.

Amazing.

whoa!!!

what a great investment

Great Folks and Great Car.

maybe one day i get one

I hope they enjoy that money! Good for them... heck of an investment! They can get a new GT350R and start all over again.

Nice My favorite car of all a can’t think of one car in the world I would rather have more. But I’m not filthy rich but I’m not poor but still big money that I don’t have

They had sons, If that was my parents they would have gone to the grave before the car went to auction.

Hey , junior flip, those are not magnesium valve covers!! Those there are aluminum valve covers..

Wow!!

I have a doubt, Which colour it is?...greetings..!!!

that's right!

Wow.

That car will be worth more than a million in a few years.

👍👍

Starter solenoid has been changed.

I seen it on tv man I thought it was worth more

love that body style looks pissed off lol

Got enough background noise?

The 69, 70 Mustang & Torino were used for NASCAR's homologation rule I'm sure the race engine wasn't a dog and a Boss 9 engine head version is being manufactured today. www.jonkaaseracingengines.com/html/kaase_boss_nine_-_semi-hemisperical_big_block_ford_cylinder_head.html

He's right, I would have ripped the smogg stuff of to, even if it was a restoration

how could you have something like that and drive it 21000 miles......smh

Get a directional mic...damn.

😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍

Sold $325K - Hey It's just as good as hitting the lottery.

if i had that car i'd put it in my living room

I bet that they regret letting that car go now. Huge mistake!

Oh 325K? Oh alright.

im in tennessee

If this guy says "original" one more time I'm going to explode!

yeah all them people out there Chevrolet guys especially comparing and some of the Mopar guys out there saying that the 429 was a love I can guarantee you this buddy it definitely wasn't a slug if that car had wings be flying the 427 the 428 and the 429 all three of those motors where great then we must leave out 289 hi- Pro which then evolved into the Almighty 5.0 everyone out there have a great night

Why sell it... smh

hahahahahaaaa I always wondered how these guys owned these cars all these years and did NOT drive!!! I couldn't keep my hands off, if I owned

those look like sweet couple

I've seen a ton of original Boss 429s with over 75,000 miles that are in much better shape than this.

Why would they sell it

At least it has miles on it. Nothing as maddening as a garage / trailer queen muscle car from the 60's & 70's with some ungodly low miles. Drive 'em, for Christ sake.

I just wished that drunk did not total my 1970!

Sorry to be a troll but that is not "candy apple red." Candy paint jobs are custom ($$$). No cars have ever rolled out of the factory with a candy paint job. Just sayin'. Nice car though!! An even nicer profit!!

Wow..... I need a new pair of pants..... 😂

Ok

it needs good paint job

Dale looks a little nervous. I think once he got the check, it's bye-bye Phyllis. She probably didn't talk to him for years after he bought this Boss 9.

The common man's past time taken away is what this is...

Great car but hard to believe the mileage is legit.

Ole Miss

Better off selling it privately than giving those vultures inflated commissions...owner not thinking.

Loud mouthed auctioneer kind of F’ed up this otherwise nice car review
