I appreciate you for saving these old Mustangs.
"This one I'll keep."
Yeah sure - how many times have you said that?
Looking forward to the videos on this one.
I found a Boss 302 that had been totaled in 1973 and made into a race car. It had a tree growing from the engine compartment and no hood. The Texas safety inspection sticker from 1973 was still on the windshield. The restoration was a blast and I had a grand time DRIVING it ! It sold to a friend and i get to see it still. I kept the Mach 1 i had owned for many years as it is air conditioned with 351 4V. Carry on and enjoy sir !
Thank you for saving that car!!!! Hard to believe A car like that had such a bad life...
Great find it'll make for great videos to watch and how you come across em and save em is fantastic again great find thumbs up 👍
Awesome find! 1970 boss is my favourite of the muscle mustang!! And red to boot!! Can’t wait for this build to start, hope you can find original sheet metal.
Kevin is a great dude, he dug all those ford records from the trash back in the day. What a story that is! Great car!
Great find, Ben! The 70 Boss 302 is way up near the top for me personally. Looking forward to this series.
Congrats Ben very good score, it's certainly found the right home. The '70 Boss 302 is high up on my list of fave US muscle cars so it will be great to see this one brought back to life. I hope luck is on you're side finding the correct block with screw in welsh plugs & the 4MA crank & heads etc. It's highly probable that this did have the optional shaker scoop ticked, here's hoping anyway.
Ur doing gods work saving these
You're the man. Another great find.
It's ruff but it's worth saving! The couple of things I noticed was it has power brakes and power steering! My 70 mach 1 is a no power brakes, no power steering or AC! I thought they were like mine. I really need to get a Marti report for mine! Good luck with this one
Complete with trailer hitch and CB radio antenna! My 70, purchased by my father in 1983, had those items as well, and also the obligatory hood pins, aftermarket tach on the column and water injection. Love the white deluxe interior; l Can’t wait to see you tackle this car….
I realize you can see something in that car but it looks impossible to me. Good luck!
One man’s junk heap, another man’s treasure. Looking forward to the restoration
I know this is going to be good watching you bring this baby back to life!
Another lovely addition to your future prospects Ben! As a teenager, I had a fast passenger ride in a Mach 1 back in 1970 over here in the U.K…- It set me on the path of loving Fords and have been really lucky in owning my fair share of nice examples all through my life still. - Bless you, your family, and your future prospects.🙏
You have a gift, please keep making these videos. One day you will inspire me to breathe life into one of these again.
Man, another sweet Boss! Awesome color combo. When I was a kid, I use to walk by a Orange 70 Boss 302, on my way to school everyday.
I'll bet it was just someone's dayly driver. A young couple had one(yellow) in our hometown parked in front of their rental apartment
Nice find !. Looking forward to watching its process in coming back to life.
Nice find👍👍
Looking forward to seeing the Marti report update.
Congrats on the new acquisition! I bet it's getting harder to decide which one(s) are going to be "keepers" and which ones get flipped.
Too true! (I think I remember his Rose Pink car was originally going to be “a keeper” but space limitations must also be a consideration I guess) Either way, a wonderful investment for anyone’s eventual retirement! 🙏👌
Yea, Iowa car sitting that long rare rare find for Iowa!
Awesome Ben,,it is about the same as the one I brought home and called You on,,I bought a rust free 70 grande in Texas to fix Mine though..I'll gv You a call..wanted to yesterday but got busy..good score😁💪
Where in Iowa? There is place in southern Iowa that was restoring Mustangs years ago. Still has many Mustangs sitting on the farm still shows up on google map. Still has three 68 GT 500 KR conv red, white, blue. R-code galaxy, 71 boss 351 and 2 boss 302 needing restored orange(70) and yellow(69)
I am very happy for you finding a boss 302 looking forward to the restoration. The 1970 isn't one of my favorite mustang because it didn't have the side scoops but it will be fun too watch 😉
69 Boss doesn't have side scoops either. Technically none do since 69 wasn't functional
Can’t wait to see the build!
Good day. Aldridge Motorsports Engineering. Vancouver WA. Has a new NOS Boss 302 (1971) engine. Carb to pan. In a crate. Thy also have a Boss 302 block. I enjoy your builds.
Thanks for the info
Awesome find, will be impatiently waiting to watch the build!😂
Awesome find Ben!!!....looking forward to watching the restoration and this car put back to life it deserves..... Cheers from Iowa!!!!
Good for you fella! I'd love a Performance White 70, to go with my 13 PW. I never stop dreaming. Looks like you're doing the "doing". Nice!
another great find !
the collection grows and grows… 😄👍
Nice find (for someone with your skills)!
This video ..will be great to see , Once you have it restored . To see the beautiful car .
Compared to where you started.
Thanks for saving another one !!!
Congrats! You had good fortune finding this Ford Mustang legend. The 1970 BOSS 302 is the 'stellar' Ford factory built Mustang along side the BOSS 429. Their only 'Mustang' competition is the (non factory built) Shelby GT 350 & GT 500.
She is a rough old pony But by watching you work your magic the ole girl is in good hands 🙌!
Glad you have the skill set to revive these cars! Keep the videos coming. Would ask how you find these leads but that would be giving away the secrets. Kudos to you👍
It’s insane to me that folks let cars just sit and sit until they are just about useless. Who knows the reasons why, but it really is crazy. I’m excited to see this beauty come back to life.
Sounds like they checked all the boxes on this one man.
Be real cool to see the Marti report
Not everyone optioned that interior package
Cool score man
Next on Unsolved Mysteries: Are you actually finding these cars or are they following you home? Just kidding. Thanks for the video!
the right rear frame rail and the left front frame where the bumper bolts on are totally gone. I've restored a few mustangs and replaced complete cowl vents but good luck with that one.
Great find. Thank you for saving it...
You said you were keeping the pink one, too.
That's rusted gold...you are the god when it comes to rebuilding mustangs.
Looking forward to the next video on this one and the budget daily
66 coupe video on monday
@@petersonrestorations how much was the car?
I feel like if someone sent you a vin tag, *that* could be considered a "fixable shell" for you. lol Between you, Chris Birdsong and Mid-year Mitch you guys are bringing cars back that 90% of the people out there wouldn't touch!
Awesome man, one day
If you don’t mind how much does something like this cost?
The guy you bought this BOSS 302 from said it has been sitting since 1976??? How does a Mustang get in that sad of shape in only 6 years or less??? WOW!! Good luck with the complete restoration!!
Can't wait to see this jem done
Great find.
cant wait to see it done great job
Cheers from New Zealand 🇳🇿, I've Subscribed.
Thank you
Wow Ben, all the best
Awesome videos and great work
lol... 'not for sale, I'm keeping this one'. mhmmmm, Pretty sure I've heard that before.😁🤣👍
This one is for sure!
Another pony at the stable keep up the good work
Oh yeah your boss 302 has a rear sway bar, that's a good piece. Now let's get a Windsor block punch it out to 460 cubic inches put a boss 302 heads on it, 12 and 1/2 to 1 compression. And make it a perfect Boss 302 right down to the chalk marks.
I'm thinking of going that route on My 70 Boss 302 I got 4 months ago..bout the same shape
70 boss 302 with a white deluxe interior, kinda a rare option?
yeah you got yourself a little piece of heaven right there
It will be great video to watch, good luck.
Some more great content Thank You
Coupe's are less expensive to aquire. Because you break these cars down so much have you turned any coupe's into fastbacks? And if not do you plan to in the future?
GOOD FIND
I’m working on a 70 fastback your videos are very helpful and informative thank you! I need new doors shells any brand you suggest quite a few options to choose from
What do you do about putting the vin# back onto the front apron?
I'm jealous, Great Score 👍 That will look Spectacular when your done. Was it a Dog Dish Boss w Deluxe interior ? Shaker ?
another clapped out mustang in good hands. Cool find
I wish I had this luck! LOL. Been looking around for a car for a while.
With the taboo subject of Vin Numbers I am curious what you do on all your builds with the VIN # on the fender aprons when you have to replace them from rust? I notice most you change this on. I am working on restorying a 1970 mustang and it has rust and damage to most of the front end parts so I was wanting to just replace it all similarly to how you do your cars.
Thanks again for all your videos and taking time to help.
If it had a shaker I've got a restorable original Boss 302 shaker assembly if you're interested.
Email pictures to resto65@yahoo.com
@@petersonrestorations Check for photos tomorrow. Looking forward to this build.
@@petersonrestorations Check your email for a video link.
I wonder.. how much do you usually charge for comission repairs?
How many times have I heard you say: "I'm gonna keep this one!" and you end up selling it?
Lol
Can't wait to see this beautiful car when finished.grateful to you for bringing THESE rats back to life..
Did u found the Boss 302 eng check pa.state there's 2 of them 1 in parts and 1 compled
Do you take any measurements to insure that the frame is not bent? Or do you not care based on the price you are paying? With my luck the shell that I would buy would be completely unusable if I attempted such a project.
This is exciting - it’s a ‘70 Fastback..!
Oh it's much more than that!
@@DSmith264 - you’re right, of course! It’s just that back in ‘78 I left my ‘73 Capri 3.0 GXL in my garage here in U.K. to spend 6 months in the US. Within 3 weeks, I fulfilled my dream with a one-owner ‘70 Mustang Fastback 302 3-sp auto. (which I bought for $550 and sold back to the original owners sister for $500 the night before I left for return to UK...!)
I’ve never had so much fun since, and every time Ben cares for any form of ‘70 Fastback, it brings back many happy memories!
Ben, I look forward your video updates on this one...
@@jeffreynolds3848
I can relate. Still have my '70, that my older brother purchased new... but it has undergone some serious changes since my high school days. Mine was originally a Mach 1 with the M-code Cleveland and automatic transmission. But now 393 stack injected stroker with Tremec magnum 6sp. If it HAD been a Boss 302, I probably would have opted for a straight restoration. That being said, I don't regret a single modification...and there's been a BUNCH! With that coveted 'G' in the vin number, I can understand this gentleman's decision to put it back stock, but without the original motor and trans. I'd still be tempted to go for a full Parnelli tribute road racer! 😜
@@DSmith264 - wow! Utterly AMAZING you still have your ‘70 that’s been in yr family since new...!
@@jeffreynolds3848
Yeah, my brother bought it when he got out of the service. He passed away a couple years later, I just couldn't bear to part with it. I drove that thing into the ground before embarking on MY 20 year long resto-mod journey. All it takes is time and money...but Mr. Peterson's skill set will cut those factors down, considerably!
How much it cost you to snag it?
What would be interesting would be the history of this car considering the owner had it since the ‘70s. Question 1 ; why was this car stripped? Was it Stolen or used for parts on another Boss?
I have info I’ll tell in the next video with the Marti report
Glad I kept my '70 Fastback 👍!!!!
Hi,can you tell approximately what you paid for the car and that's all it came with?
Thanks
Will you do a video as you restoring it?
Hello , do you need some nice original 70 boss fenders for that car ?
How much?
Email resto65@yahoo.com
@@petersonrestorations I sent email
Love it
we have very nice front fenders if your interested ?
Is restoring these old Mustangs your full time business or do you have a job that pays the bills?
I have seen some cars you have said were done for customers.
How do you deal with a rusty apron where the vin goes? Could you tranfer it to a new aftermarket apron?
Ben, Being you mentioned the grabber orange one....what's the eta for its completion? Thanks, and good luck.
Probably will be after this red one
If all you brought home was a couple pounds of rust in a bucket, would it still be a Boss 302 Mustang? Just a philosophical question.
I have to ask, what part of Iowa? I'm by Davenport and I own a '70 Cougar Eliminator, Boss 302 car.
How much money you got to dump in to it to get it back on the road is it worth it then just buying one that is all ready road ready you got to factor in your time to
We don't do rust out west, ever.
Man this is going to be fun to watch u build.
hate to discourage you but he doesn't post much build videos, mainly their rusty arrival and shiny leaving
Don't get so serious dude. What we see is what we get and his talent is fun to watch no matter what he post's. I have watched since he has started. Not my first rodeo dude.
If I have a title for a 69 sport roof Mustang in my name am I allowed to build the car from aftermarket parts or do I need the original Vin tag?
All you need now is a Boss 429 to add to your collection?
Yep, just out of my price range though
Hello I was wondering if you would be interested in a lot of 65 66 mustang parts used but in good shape, doors, bucket seats, hoods, trunk lids, hood latches,grills , ext ext
Sorry but I try not to hold on to much extra stuff
Does the Boss 302 have the RUG..(taged). Toploader with the large diameter first second and third gear ?
Can’t remember the numbers on it, I’d have to look sometime
Please do my 1 of 783 with factory 4 spd with Hurst shifter, AZ frame and all body panels on a NM shell. Marti report 1972 Bright Red Ranchero GT. Please !
Sorry I only do mustangs
What’s the Marti report
