1969 Boss 429 Program Memo
Another rare piece of 1960s Ford internal correspondence from the Lunch Pail !This memo discusses issues — both known and anticipated — regarding the hood scoop for the new 1969½ 429 'HO' Mustangs. 'Boss' scoops were not made in-house, but were supplied by a vendor.Specifically, the memo accomplishes five main goals...
- Clarifies the vendor's current manufacturing process
- Explains likely bottlenecks in their delivery schedule
- ...and potential solutions to those bottlenecks
- Points out a serious issue with the vendor's paint process
- Announces a mandatory change to the fiberglass spec
Internal correspondence like this was distributed as copies; a sender would typically keep their 'originals' on file. I'm offering clear & crisp copies — check out my high-res photos — that are suitable for framing.Is your car's restoration a matter of personal pride or a hunt for show-points? Either way, this is something you won't find every day. Best of all there's , so don't miss out!
