Great looking , I have always liked the red Boss 302s, probably because they were just not as common a color as one would suspect?!

Nice find and the Forgeline rims really set the car off, imho!

Thanks, Bill!
Per my build sheet from the Owners Kit, there were 798 in Race Red (Most we’re in SBY). Ironically, I don’t care for red cars, but the seller’s garage door only went about half way up before I silently told myself I would buy it haha!

The Forgeline’s were something I had to budget for. I wanted something from Apex so bad, but due to the delays around their forged offerings, I decided to save more and wait longer. I’m glad I did, because they are awesome!!

I’ll throw in the 1-piece Spicer and MGW this spring. The car should be in pretty good shape for a Daily. Thanks to all TMO members for the guidance and advice!!
