The 1971 Ford Mustang Boss 351 is one of the most sought-after and collectible classic Mustangs ever made. It was the last and most powerful of the Boss series, designed to compete in the Trans-Am racing series. Only 1,806 Boss 351s were produced in 1971, making them rare and valuable today.
This particular car is even more special, as it is one of only six Boss 351s that came with a stunning combination of white paint, black Mach 1 bucket seats, and chrome Magnum 500 wheels. It is also one of only 14 white Boss 351s with black Mach 1 seats and one of only 120 white Boss 351s in total. This car is a true unicorn among Mustangs, and it has been restored to its original glory with meticulous attention to detail.
