When I picked up my 2017 GT350 (my first ever Ford) back in September of 2016 a wise neighbor told me that I would never own just one. Well he was right.
The Boss: I picked up this lightly used 2013 Boss 302 with a mere 9500 miles back in October of 2019 with the intent of making a track day car out of it over a period of time. Two weeks later the interior and trunk were completely gutted. I dropped it off at a local expert fabricator and had the full roll cage welded into it. Along with some sheet metal work to close off the trunk area and the doors I got it back and spent the rest of the winter installing the rest of the improvements. Brakes (DBA rotors and G-Loc pads), brake cooling, one piece driveshaft, MGW shifter, Setrab oil cooler, front splitter, Apex wheels, Koni shocks and struts, BMR springs, panhard rod, trailing arms and swaybars, Sparco seats and fire suppression system, Safecraft 5 point harnesses, Lethal Performance offroad X pipe, TrackSpec hood vents and a giant G Stream carbon fiber wing.
The inspiration: I had attended the Ford Performance driving school and on day 2 drove the school Boss 302's. Since I like to keep my mind sharp I always have to be creating/building something and felt inspired to build one myself. I think it turned out pretty good. Three full track days so far this year and this Boss is handling pretty well. I will keep improving it over time and thinking if I will ever own more than two Mustangs.
