Richard Boeye’s 1969 Boss 302 is quite possibly the most original Boss 302 on the planet.
Is this the very best unrestored 1969 Boss 302 remaining on the planet? Bob Perkins, MCA’s technical advisor and noted Boss Mustang restorer, thinks so. “I’ve never seen a better one,” Bob says. Greg DeCaster bought the Acapulco Blue original in the late ’80s at Barrett-Jackson’s Scottsdale, Arizona, auction, which is when the car “surfaced” in the Mustang hobby. Bob recognized the car’s incredible originality and purchased it from Greg. Over the next 25 or so years, the 302 moved from one collector to the next, each time setting a world’s record price for a 1969 Boss 302.
Bob sold the Boss to collector and friend Dick Bridges, who added the car to his collection, but eventually sold it back to Bob. Next, Bob sold the car to Dave Steine, who sold it to Richard Boeye. The current owner Richard plans to keep the unrestored original for a long time. Richard bought the 302 for the same reason as Greg, Bob, Dick, and Dave—the car’s 100-percent original condition.
