Subject: 302 boss ever come in a 70 mach 1 ?? Wed 9 Jun - 15:34
i bought this car several years ago and never checked the vin to see what it was supposed to be so much to my surprise this afternoon when i looked it up online i found that it is a "G" code car with a 302 boss when i got the car it was a hull with no motor or trannie so i promptly built a 30 over cleveland with quench chambered 4v heads and a 292 comp cams flat tappet. the car had all 3 pedals so i stuck a 4 speed in it as well. it has all the correct stuff for a mach 1 car. i.e. honey comb deal on the back around the gas cap. flip down cap. power front disc. the black molding down the sides under the door, interior and such seems correct too. problem is i cant find where a 70 mach ever came with the 302 boss. please enlighten me guys:) thanks in advance for any info you might have.

The Mach1 never came with the Boss engine. Engine chose was limited for the 1970 Mach 1. Basic Mach1 had the 351C-2V, while 351C-4V and 428's were optional.
Maybe you could check the vin that is stamped under the fenders.

You know that's weird. I bought my 70 mach 1 with all mach 1 stuff is missing trans, had a 351 Cleveland put in there, no rear end though. The window vin reads boss but buck tag doesn't. This had a 4 speed. It sounds like I just bought your car haha. Can anyone help?

No wonder this is the car I just bought.... After researching his other posts he said owner since 88 and by golly the same guy I bought the car said he owned it since 88'. Wow amazing
