I bought it for a colectors car down the road it may be worth something I hope. I have a Boss 429 69 Mustang KK 1708 in resto hope to have it done soon. I took it to Sears Point back in 2003 for the SVT meet that was fun

When that car used to be on the showroom floor. I swear I used to go every weekend to look at it. I love that car. That car was on the floor for yeaars! to high of a mark up. They wanted 100K at the time.
Congrats on owning a piece of history

When I first seen it the car cought my eye it was the Ford dealerships owners baby beautiful bright red car we talked him into seeling it. I have it now in my collection in hope it will bring big money many years on down the road

It will bring good money down the road, but the cars that will bring big, or maybe even huge money are the ones that actually got raced.
What's a 69 Camaro worth? I know of one that the owner has turned down $1,000,000 for. All because it's an original Trans-Am car. Same thing with $750,000 AMC Javelins, Boss Mustangs, and Dodge Challengers.
