On "My Car Story" we're in the West Suburbs of Chicago on 7-12-22.
We're looking at a 1970 Ford Mustang Boss 302 in Bright Gold Metallic Paint. The car has a 302 CI V8 engine, and a 4 speed manual transmission.
The car's Owner is Mike Novak. Mike’s had this car since 2000. Mike shares that he purchased a new 1970 Boss 302 and enjoyed the car. His sold that car, however missed it. He started his search for another one, and after several years looking for another one, he found the right one for him in 2000. He’s happy to say he loves driving a 1970 Boss 302 again.
ENJOY!

Back in the mid-seventies, Fords were taboo in my car gang. I've since changed my mind on a few, including the '70 Boss 302!
A co-worker took me and a couple others into Wilsonville, Oregon to get lunch one day in 1973 or '74. We lost no time getting to our destination! It was plenty fast. The Boss was orange with the black accents. None of us had any inkling that this car would some day be a collectors item. It's hard to believe this car is 52 years old. Where does the time go?
Hi Michael, Happy to read this car brings back memories of your Co-Workers car :-) Thank you for viewing and sharing, Lou
Helped my dad restore a 70 coupe back in the 80s. Dad loved mustangs and he passed it on to me.
Hi noneed4me2, Very nice! Thank you for viewing and sharing, Lou
Lou, this Boss 302 takes me back to 1981 when I was stationed at USCG Base Gloucester City, NJ. GC was the Captain of the Port of Philadelphia, which encompassed the entire Delaware River and Bay, big, big area. Alot of floating units there, buoy tenders, search and rescue boats. Attached were several hundred enlisted and officers. I was a junior petty officer in those days with a fairly new Mustang 2.3 which I had modified, using the 2.3 turbo engine out of an old junker fox body Mustang. I did the engine swap in the Base's hobby shop; a small set of old garages set together. Not many folks used the facility except for junior gearheads like myself. On the far end of one of the garage stalls sat a 1970 Boss 302; Grabber Orange, rear window slats, Magnum 500 rims. Although I was still in my 20's, a childhood hero of mine was Mark Donohue and his Sunoco Z28 Camaros. So I knew exactly what that Boss was all about. Knew all about Parnelli Jones and George Follmer & the great Trans Am series of the late 60's and early 70's. The 302 Boss motor was out, sitting as the car was, all dusty and neglected. I knew the owner was stationed on the Red Oak, which was moored directly in front of the hobby shop stalls. Never saw the owner there working on the car and the last I knew of the car, it was still sitting there when I got orders for my next unit in late 83. Today, only the large base building stands. The entire shops and garage complex was turn down. To this day, I wondered what happened to that Grabber Orange Boss 302. Back in those days, young people like me were concerned about fuel economy, not 290 horse trans am racers built for the street. If only I had the foresight to skip all that, buy that thing and keep it until the times and tide, changed!

@@loucostabile You're welcome, Lou. To you and yours, a Merry Christmas and Happy New Year!
When I was ten years old in 1970 ,I fell in love with the Boss. I grew up on hot wheels …. My sizzler boss 302 was special to me.
As I grew I became a mopar guy but there is a place in my heart for this car. Black window louvers are a must on this car.
I now pronounce you 10 year old and Boss....at 16 you may take the keys :-)
I miss my silver Sizzler 'stang.
You're right Lou, this car looks gorgeous from every side and angle. Mr. Novak's hard work & restoration efforts truly paid off. And boy, does this Boss like to boogie when you drop the hammer! Thanks, Lou!
Hi TheGunfighter45acp, This one looks showroom new, and goes good too :-) You're welcome, Lou
I'm a GM guy, but I must say that the Boss Mustang is the quintessential muscle car in my opinion. It looks muscular! Very nice example. I learned that the Boss never came with an automatic tranny. I never knew that one.
Hi Joseph, High praise from a GM Guy. Lou
This car was certainly one of the big dreams of us 'Ford guys' back in the '80s!!
Nice :-)
@@loucostabile,
Yeah! Thanks for this one Lou!
This fellow is definitely a great owner for this car also. He's uniquely qualified to appreciate it right!? Lol
Hey, not sure if you've covered/highlighted a 69' Cobra Torino yet, (preferably a sport roof Fastback), but would be cool to see! Hehe!
Update, lol... just checked and you've done a bunch on these cars! Thanks again Lou! I may have even commented on one of them back in the day!? Hah
Those were extraordinarily good looking cars. It's amazing that any of the BOSS 302's have survived. They had such a low survivability rate. A friend of mine bought a BOSS 302 new and didn't take him long to destroy it. They could get away with you pretty quick.
Happy to read you enjoy the looks of this car :-) Sad to read your Friend destroyed one :-(
Wow! Your Mustang looks just like my husband's 70 Boss from back in the day. He called the color 'competition gold. '
My 70 Boss color was grabber green. We parked them both out In front of the church on our wedding day.
Folks stood with their jaws dropped on the curb as we squalled out sideways in his gold Boss! It thrills my soul to this day, just to think about it! Like you said, The best fun in a car... Ever! We even swapped driver's while driving on interstate! Crazy..
Right?! There was a lot less traffic back then. I know you're feeling like a kid again banging thru the gears of that awesome 4 speed Hurst shifter! And
that unique rumbling, intimidating, growl you can identify only as a fast, fantastic Mustang roaring around the corner even before seeing that Pony prancing and snorting into sight! 👍 Sure do miss my Mustangs! Thanks for the memories! Giddy up... Go!!!!

I also owned a 1970 Boss 302 between 1975 to 1982. I did a lot of street racing with it. I found it to be a nice handling car. But not much low end performance with those huge Cleveland style heads even with a 4:57 gear. I drove it for a for two years with the 302 but eventually I replaced it with a Boss 351 engine. It was night & day the difference in so much better performance. In 1982 I rebuilt the 302 engine. When dismantling the engine I notice that all the lower piston skirts were broken. I made a phone call to TRW to see what replacement pistons they had for that engine. Talking to the chief TRW engineer, he said that they had manufactured the original pistons for Ford. So starting in 1974 for warranty purpose they had redesign the replacement pistons, but with a much shorter piston skirt. So my advice, if you're buying a 69/70 Boss 302 make sure the engine has got the new style replacement pistons.

That brochure is probably as close as I'll ever get to ever seeing a 1970 1/2 Falcon. Super stripped Torino. That was the family car for, oh, about 10 years.
Happy this brings back memories of the Family Falcon :-) Nice!
Beautiful example of a 1979 Ford Mustang Mach 1

Mustang’s don’t come any better than this. A great ride on my car, what an experience. ❤
High praise for this Mustang :-)
The same happened to me….i was a passenger in a mustang in 1974…and ive wanted one in my garage ever since…nothing satiates that mustang feeling other than a mustang..
Mustang fever.
I have a friend who has a 1973 Ford Mustang
I’ve ridden in it several times.
Beautiful, beautiful car. I love the Ford Mustang.
Ford Mustang and Ford Model T are my absolute favourites.

Brian, Happy to share this "Ford Found Gold" with you :-) Lou
Lou this car is proportionally damn near perfect.. And oh...love me some small block!!
Gr8 feature gr8 score Lou.
Hi Audie, High praise :-) Lou
Very nice restoration. I had a hot wheels boss 302 car as a kid that looked like this one. Great looking Mustang and runs well too. Thanks Lou.
Hi Greg, Happy to read you had a Hot Wheel that looked like this one. NICE! You're welcome, Lou

Love the old pics from 70s great trunk n treats as great as the car I'm happy to see that he got back a car he had back in the day I've got a few I like to get back myself
Hi Larry, Right Caretaker with the right car :-) Hope you're behind the wheel of some of those you'd like to get back soon, Lou
Mike's gold Boss is fabulous! Thanks for your tremendous "prospecting" Lou!
Hi Brian SD, High praise :-) Glad to share this "Gold" with you. You're welcome, Lou
Since you mentioned them in the brochure, I have two 1970 1/2 falcons. They were a last ditch marketing ploy to have a base model car at a lower price. It’s based on the Torino body but has a full frame door window, vent window, and B pillar, which the Torino/Fairlane did not have.
You could get a 6 cylinder all the way up to the 429 scj. One of mine is a factory 351c 4v shaker intake. They were only built for 6 months in 1970.
Hi Rusty Dreams Garage, Happy to read you have two 1970 1/2 Falcons. Twice as nice! Lou
Nice Boss 302. I had a 70 Mustang Grande' in the early 80's. It was the same paint color. Ford gave it the promotional name " Freudian guilt" .
It was a very difficult color to spray when I repainted it. The coverage of that color was very slow to build! I used a light Grey sealer. If I had chosen a dark red oxide sealer the repaint would have been a huge disaster.
Hi Scott, Happy to read you enjoy this Boss 302 :-) Lou
Nice. I like the fact that it doesn't have an obnoxious exhaust system.
Hi Milford Civic, Happy to read you enjoy this "Nice" car :-) Lou
Like kids again, yea memories and the familiar that brings it back. Nice car, love mustang boss 302.. Z eater...
Hi Doug, Happy to read this video brings memories back :-) Lou
Fantastic Boss!!! I knew a guy in Niceville, Florida that had this model also and was the same color, this was back in the 80s and his was pristine, dude did body work on F15s at Eglin AFB. Very nice Boss-Stang!!!
High praise for this Boss Hobiemarty :-)
Im really a fan of the ford mustang in general.Lovely car👍
Happy to read you enjoy the Mustang :-)
Larry Shinoda was responsible for the Boss 302. His boss was Semon "Bunkie" Knudsen was the President of ford at the time, having left GM. The smog equipment was removed as soon as owner got home. The blue box on passenger fender is a rev limiter, to prevent owner from blowing up motor..
Hi musclecarfan74, Thanks for sharing. Thought you'd like this video, Lou ruclips.net/video/JJgBEc445uM/видео.html
Great video of a great car. Had a new 1969 and later in life a 70 Boss 302. My favorite. Thank you.
Hi 2098elk, Happy to read this car brings back memories of your cars :-) Thank you for viewing, sharing, and you're welcome, Lou
Lou, two things I would like to point out of the questions you ask in the video. I really didn't want to look through 200 posts to see if someone else made these same observations. The post on the Falcon, I am told from members of the Falcon Club of America, is what distinguishes it from a Fairlane. The Fairlane and 70 1/2 Falcon appear to be the same other than that post. There may be some slight dimensional differences, too. The 70 Falcon for the first half of the model year was the same as the 69, which had a post on all models. The other thing was the different grill on the page with the LTD. That looked to me to be a grill from a 69 Galaxie.
Daniel, thanks for sharing what you notice. Hmmm, I'm not sure. Hoping a Viewer with knowledge can share, Lou
Beautiful Mustang! Ford would not factory warranty the Boss 302 V8 engine if the rev limiter was disconnected or monkeyed around with by the owner. The rev limiter is located next to the battery on the left firewall.
Hi Todd, Happy to read you enjoy the looks of this Mustang :-) Thank you for viewing and sharing, Lou
Thanks, Lou! Had this same car! Bought in the Spring of 1973 for peanuts when everyone was dumping muscle cars. Only raced once and was beaten by a 750 Honda MC. I looked around for a pic but can't find after 50 years. I remember mine had black interior and I don't think It had a shaker hood. I didn't keep it too long and traded up to a 68 427 Corvette.
You're welcome roysmemorylane. Happy to read this one brings back memories :-) Lou
The Sports Roof is the absolute best of the '69-'70 Mustangs in my opinion. Chrome Magnum 500s, the best kind!!!
I never realized that the Torino was car of the year in '70, nor that the Sportsroof was available outside of the GT and Cobra packages. And PROPS to the Ford Louisville!!!
The Boss 429 is the king of the '69-'70 Mustangs, but the Boss 302 is probably the next most-special, (and no, I'm not forgetting the '69-'70 GT350 and GT500s, though not to discredit them) but even the cool as hell Mach1s don't compare to a Boss. '70 Mach1 was the first '69-'70 I really dug as a 6th grader. '69 and '70 really were the peak of it all! Too bad I was only 2, 3, and 4, during those years... Designers NAILED it with those Sports Slats. And just what the heck was going on with those guys and that girl with the Mustang Grande??
Hi Dan, Thank you for viewing and sharing, Lou
Those days were all about love one day togetherness out in the wilderness or at a park
Nice !
Lou, if I'm not mistaken like the BOSS 429 the 70' model BOSS 302s had slightly smaller valves than the 69s detracting from performance somewhat but improving their tractability and usability on the street quite a bit. The earlier models required a higher rpm just to pull out from a stop light without experiencing mushiness even though they'd scream to the rev limiters 6150 ceiling, that most people unhooked. If that's not the exact story I think it's pretty close. haha KUTGW
Charlotte, Thank you for viewing and sharing your knowledge, Lou
Speaking of the Trunk & Treats- it strikes me as odd how often car brochures would show the seats out in a field, in the woods or wherever, instead of inside the car.
Different era.
Never understood why they would show a picture of a seat out of the car???? AND THEN ADD A MODEL TOO LIKE SHE'D BE SITTING THERE NEXT TO THE SEAT?!?!? It's fun to point that out :-)
Thanks for showcasing another true American classic. I especially enjoyed the commentary during the trunk and treats, made me laugh out loud. Thank you!!
Hi GMP NY, Happy to read you enjoy the trunk & treats :-) You're welcome, Lou
Don't take this the wrong way, but why do people keep their classic cars in the garage and "not bring it out all that often?" We have a 2013 Shelby GT500 and a 1970 Corvette 454 that we drive at least 3 to 5 days a week. You can't take it with you, so drive it! In both cars I get smiles and thumbs up and I love it! Our GT500 spent 7 years in Germany and it was driven the way it was intended, FAST and hard and the car and I had a blast on the autobahn. Great video.

Hi Robert, Happy to read this car brings back memories of your Cousins car :-) Thank you for viewing and sharing, Lou
I don't know why Ford didn't build all the Boss 302's with the shaker hoods! That shaker hood looked so much better, than the plain flat hoods! That's one of my regrets, never owning a '67 to '70 Mustangs. This one is gorgeous, but I think I'd want the close ratio 4 speed.
Hi Robert, I agree, the shakers are cool. Lou
Beautiful! 😍😍😍😍😍 Thanks Lou!
Hi motorTranz, Happy to read you enjoy the looks of this car :-) You're welcome, Lou

Nice !
Nice 1970 Mustang Boss 302 4-Speed! That car is immaculate! I love the color of it too! The engine sounds healthy as well! Far too many "treats' in the trunk, because I was chomping at the bit to check out that ginger interior which matches that gold exterior perfectly! Another fine classic Lou!

Hey Lou! Love this video! The grille on the car in the brochure that you didn't recognize was the standard grille on the Galaxie 500. It didn't have the hideaway headlamps like the LTD. I'm sending this video to a friend of mine who has a 69 Mach 1 and who's a big Ford fan. I know he'll really enjoy seeing this Boss 302! Have a great day!
Hey Dave! Happy to read "Love this video!" :-) Thanks for sharing the explanation of the grill, and sharing with a Friend too. NICE! Lou
Caray, Lou! Hace poco te quería mencionar que sería estupendo que te toparas con un Ford Mustang Boss 1970, y me topo con esta agradable sorpresa! Este modelo lo he estado jugando en un videojuego llamado GT Racing 2 y quería conocerlo en la realidad, y qué mejor en un video tuyo. Cómo se lo aprecia en el juego, es una belleza! Hermosas las tomas que le sacaste en esa calle curva y en pleno día soleado para delite visual. El interior con su tapizado y asientos en marrón, junto a sus instrumentos, son también muy llamativos; mención especial para la palanca de de velocidades. ¡Ah, y me gustó esa gorra que tenía su propietario! Jaja. ¡Excelente video Lou!

Yep, this hurt.
It is my uncle saved all his money in Vietnam in the Marine Corps to come home and buy a new Mark one that he probably saw in a magazine back in 68 and he never made it home. I always wanted one but I can’t afford it so I settle for a model.
Hi Frank, Sad to read your Uncle did not make it home :-( Lou
Have totally seen that grille as in 1970 there was a non Shelby Cobra Cobra based on a stripped down Fairlane

I think on most 1969 and 70 models, the optional girl was available for a mere 100.00
Hmmm, good to know.
Great stang
I think so too :-)
The grill in the ford brochure….the GRILL! not the girl. I believe I remember that perhaps from the Galaxie 500 and maybe the Custom/Custom 500 models? Or maybe tje Canadian versions? It does remind me of the look of a grill from a Meteor though. Do you know the Meteor from Mercury?
Hi Trip Reviews, Meteor from Mercury, the Canadian car, like this one. Lou ruclips.net/video/2B4FDLJ2q_Q/видео.html
@@loucostabile yep! Canuck car. Can’t remember off hand the models from the ‘50’s. Bit on the 60’s and newer there was the Montcalm and the Rideau (ree-do) Rideau 500. Two models I can think of from that period. No idea as to why Ford used French names for the Meteor models, can’t see a connection there at all, Meteor Montcalm? Rideau? I always thought it was weird. Maybe space junk 😉 connection, (joking lol.) They were basically a plane Jane version of the Mercury with the same body style. That grill in the 1970 Ford brochure does remind me of the Meteor grill from I think that year. The Meteor models were dropped well before Mercury went down into the history books.
Nice!!!!

Reminds me of a Camaro the facia only one headlight I wonder if they made it like that on purpose to compete with Camaro because the mustang was bad ass with the two headlights in the front. I had a 69 and I had a 71 and 71 felt so much lighter buddy handle better but the 69 Chevy car but it didn’t handle great.

Sorry Lou I voice command why am working and listening to your show but those Fords the one you mentioned with the grill have you ever seen one those big family cars must’ve really got used up beat down and scrapped because I grew up in the 80s building cars and racing quarter miles on Friday night. Just never really seen any of those big fords left on the road very rare. Later models like in the 80s you would see like 1974, 1975 and up a little bit towards the end of the 70s in the 80s but the earlier 70s stuff now maybe some nice 60s Fords

Kudos to owner Mike for finding the car that got away. There are so many great Mustangs and the '70 Boss 302 is on the short list of best Stangs ever. Beautiful car 👍 Thanks !
Hi Bruce H., Happy to read this one is on the short list of best Stands ever :-) You're welcome, Lou
This is all really nice, but I have news for you: putting a 5-speed transmission into this car would make it a rocket AND make it a better highway drive. Just sayin'.
That's a fun idea :-)
Nice car but the 69' Grill looks better than the 70.

Yes, I prefer the look of the '69, but much prefer the great colours offered on the '70.

I think the recording system Lou uses picks up on those frequencies more than others and amplifies the lifter sound more than it really is. I know my camera does that.
