1971 Ford Mustang Boss 351 Grabber Blue Coupe 351 V8 4 Speed Manual

Description for Ford Mustang 1971

Restored Mustang Boss 351 Grabber Blue 4spd Buckets w/Console ///
Corralled in the Arizona heat for the first 20 years of its life, this awesome pony is a strong example of just how good this generation of Boss can look. Unfortunately, those two decades involved a lot of track brawling, and, by the time its second owner stepped up to the plate, most of the car's Boss-exclusive components had been either swapped or modified. It took that owner three years of parts sourcing, but, after a solid restoration, this Ford was back on the road. In 1998, the car was purchased by its third owner: Ken Maisano of MASCAR Auto Body – yes, the same outfit that's been featured countless times on Overhaulin'. In addition to sourcing more correct parts, Ken stripped everything bare and financed a detailed, ground-up freshening. And naturally, that rebuild included correct Grabber Blue pigment, which, in this application, takes the form of high quality Spies Hecker 2-stage. Under the car's 'long and low' hood you'll find 351 cubic inches of Ford V8 that's been balanced, blueprinted and completely overhauled by Ken Maisano Racing Engines. That motor spins a rugged Toploader 4-speed that's been completely rebuilt by Orange County Transmission of Costa Mesa, California. A correct Competition Suspension sports factory power steering and power front disc and rear drum brakes. And power meets the pavement through chrome Magnum 500s and Firestone Wide Oval 60s. Inside this Grabber chariot, a correct Black interior features fresh bucket seats and a roster of correct equipment. The dash is loaded with vintage telemetry and features glossy black trim that's clean and tasteful. A correct Philco AM radio rides between well-integrated accessory gauges and a polished Hurst shifter that's founded on a factory console. And the driver spins a 2-spoke factory steering wheel.
