I think it could be a "G" code too = Boss 302?

The other code for a 428 equipped Mustang would be "Q".

For the life of me, I don't know why someone would go through the trouble of installing a 429 in a '70 Mustang unless it was an original Boss 429 car. It's just too much engine for the engine bay. The color is not one available on the Boss 429, FWIW.

My money is on the car being a modified Boss 302 or SportsRoof with the CJ. 351s also could receive the Shaker, including the 2bbl.

But you could get a SportsRoof with a Shaker.

Ok guys now I have the answer, it is a Boss 302 !
It seems like it was sold new in Sweden and probably at our local dealership Ambjörnsson Ford in Gislaved (that´s 3 miles from my home). The former owner that I know lives 160 miles from Anderstorp. It is not confirmed by the paperwork I got today that Ambjörnsson sold it, but since it was registred here in Gislaved I see no alternative. I know they sold at least one more Boss 302. That one was sold to Kenneth Kroon, the founder of Micro carparts. Kenneth later sold Micro to IKEA, that was done mabye ten years ago.
It´s funny because both my wife and I knew Åke Alklid who registered the car. And my wife has a friend who knows the first owner of the car, Lennart Hall in Jönköping. Small world !
