The real 1970 Mustang Boss 429 got its name from the nickname used by designer Larry Shinoda for then-Ford president Semon "Bunkie" Knudsen. The Boss Mustangs were built to qualify Ford's 429 for NASCAR!
The 1:43 scale version joined the Hot Wheels American Classics line from HWC! Finished in Spectraflame orange, the 1970 Mustang Boss 429 features a full-metal chassis and two-piece Real Riders wheels with Goodyear tampo, and comes in special platform packaging.
