1970 Boss 429

   
   "1970 Boss 429"
   
   I've most likely crafted words concerning this pony power in the past; however, this muscle machine is indeterminate in specs and performance, for the specters of the past haunt with muscular mystery; regardless, the potency of this pony-powered stampede is undeniable--produced by Ford in restricted numbers during the year, Ford being an acronym, back in yesteryear for:  FIRST ON RACE DAY.  
   This bodacious beast had a 4-speed manual gearbox; plus, Ram Air intake from a totally Batman hood scoop; moreover, a twin in-line exhaust system.  Here are some approximate facts concerning this mystery of muscle--like this:

Horses:  And as with a certain invocation to Saint Joan of Arc as you sing for her to ride alongside you in battle; therefore, she would be thrilled about the 375 horses this galloping pony delivered.

450 lb-ft. torque--getting that power to the wheels.

0-60:  5 seconds, if floored with maximum gravity by way of the heeled cowboy boot.

1/4 Mile Express:  14 seconds at 103 Miles-Per-Hour.

Top Speed:  We should put it this way:  Constructed For Ultra-High Speed Cruising!!!
