$550,000 1969 mustang boss 429 for sale

[webby]

You read it right. This unrestored mustang has 4,405 miles to it's name, and it can be yours.

It's been garage-kept all its life, and still sports its original, terrifying bias-ply tires. According to the seller, this particular Boss 429 is fitted with the coveted 'S' engine, a feature only available on the first 279 Boss 429s produced.

The current owner says he bought the car in excellent shape in 2007 and had it professionally cleaned and re-awoke the engine after a long slumber. Since then, the car has been pampered and its astonishing mileage preserved.

Despite its low mileage, the Boss participated in, and won, a couple bracket races when new. The quarter windows still carry the winner's stickers. The price for this all-original time capsule is enough to make even the most-hardcore Mustang fan gulp. Buy-It-Now is set at an astounding $550,000. Is it worth it?

Here's a Boss 429 recreation that sold for $123,200: http://www.barrett-jackson.com/application/onlinesubmission/lotdetails.aspx?ln=1249&aid=403&pop=0

And a real deal restored Boss 429 that sold for $220,000: http://www.barrett-jackson.com/application/onlinesubmission/lotdetails.aspx?ln=1260&aid=403&pop=0

And another Boss 429 (in my favorite automotive color of all time) that sold for $220,000: http://www.barrett-jackson.com/application/onlinesubmission/lotdetails.aspx?ln=1324.1&aid=403&pop=0

Considering the Boss 429 is one of the most sought after collectable muscle cars, the low milage, and the car's "time capsule" status, I'd say it was close to a fair price. I'm quite certain somebody will cough up the cash for it.
