These cars were underappreciated, and out performed all previous small block and most big blocks Mustangs. Great colors, options and built to drive! The link below includes 33 pics.

My folks ordered a new Highland Green 68 Mustang GT with a gold C stripe back in the day but if I could have any Mustang I wanted it would be a Grabber Blue 71 Boss 351, what a beautiful car!

The 1971 Boss 351 is the only Boss engine (302, 351, 429) that does not use an A.I.R. pump.

In 1972, there was the 351 HO, which was basically a low-compression Boss 351. That engine was available in a ragtop.
