Boss Pricing  <br>Although the Boss cars are not top-of-the-heap in the Mustang market (that honor belongs to the Shelby), they are a pricey buy. Most will fetch more than a well-equipped Mach 1 of the same era, and the Boss 429 will even come close to touching the Shelbys in the cha-ching factor. These computations were factored using the &#147;Good&#148; rating from the Cars of Particular Interest (CPI) value guide, (800)760-2667. The value computations were done using the government inflation calculator available online at www.jsc.nasa.gov/bu2/inflateCPI.html.    <br>Then Now  <br>&#146;69 Boss 302 N/A &#146;69 Boss 302 $20,500  <br>&#146;70 Boss 302 $3,720 &#146;70 Boss 302 $20,500  <br>&#146;69 Boss 429 $4,937 &#146;69 Boss 429 $38,000  <br>&#146;70 Boss 429 N/A &#146;70 Boss 429 $38,000  <br>&#146;71 Boss 351 $4,124 &#146;71 Boss 351 $18,450    <br>If New in 2002 Actual  <br>&#146;69 Boss 302 N/A $20,500  <br>&#146;70 Boss 302 $16,888 $20,500  <br>&#146;69 Boss 429 $21,199 $38,000  <br>&#146;70 Boss 429 N/A $38,000  <br>&#146;71 Boss 351 $16,966 $18,450    <br>Compared to Shelby  SportsRoofs now:  <br>'69 GT350 $26,000 &#146;69 Boss 302 $20,500  <br>&#146;70 GT350 $26,000 &#146;70 Boss 302 $20,500  <br>&#146;69 GT500 $32,100 &#146;69 Boss 429 $38,000  <br>&#146;70 GT500 $32,100 &#146;70 Boss 429 $38,000  <br>&#146;71 Shelby Europa N/A  &#146;71 Boss 351 $18,450
