I didn't notice the cooling towers right away either. Pretty cool. Some nice classic muscle in the background as well. The entire setting has a serious Anytown, USA vibe going on. Love it.

California isn't really part of the USA. We just let you guys pretend so we don't hurt any feelings.

Good question. If the entire car looks as good as the exterior I can only imagine.

I watch Chasing Classic Cars every Saturday morning at 8AM on HD Theatre. Wayne Carini sold his 1969 Mustang Boss 302 for $80K (Blue with flat black stripes) at the RM Auction in Monteray, CA. This was early 2010. The Muscle cars have come down quite a bit. Even the rare late 60's and early 70's Challengers, Cuda's, Daytona's have taken a tumble.

Like he says on the show, "Cute" or "Early" is selling right now. A mint 1950's VW Bug Convertible is "Cute" and 1902 Panhard brass car is "Early". He sold a 1966 Mustang Shelby Cobra which should have went for over $150K for $95K no reserve. That owner was pretty pissed. Wrong time right now I guess.

There is a HUGE difference between the prices of Boss 302's and Boss 429's. Like a factor of two or better. At the peak of the market, an uber lo-mile Boss 9 sold for $600,000+ on Barrett-Jackson. That same car is probably worth $250,000 in today's market. I saw a really nice 9 cross a Mecum auction this spring for $175,000.

If it came down to a Boss 429 or a '67 GT500, i think i'd go insane trying to pick.
