Chrysler bought the high-revving Mustang to help it develop its Dodge Challenger T/A and Plymouth AAR Cuda rivals

Despite the fact that some people who are passionate about automobiles switch brands frequently, the majority of them are loyal to the brands that they enjoy the most. Therefore, a person who is obsessed with historic Dodges is probably not going to be interested in rearranging his garage to make room for a vintage Ford Mustang. On the other hand, here is a Mustang that has a very special link to Chrysler that has the potential to convince supporters of Dodge and Plymouth to switch to blue.

On the surface, it appears to be nothing more than a beautifully restored 1969 Boss 302, which is a coveted automobile. However, it is not significantly different from the majority of the other 649 specimens that were born that year with Bright Yellow paint, which was the Boss’s most popular color.

However, what makes it more interesting and pertinent to Dodge enthusiasts is the fact that particular 302 that is being auctioned off by Mecum in May was purchased brand new by Chrysler in 1969 in order to assist the company in the development of its own competing models, the Dodge Challenger T/A and the Plymouth AAR Cuda.
