Sorry but this isn't about GT40's. I ran into a guy today who invited me to come look at Boss 429 Mustang that he claimed to have purchased from the US Navy! He claimed the car spent most of its life on an aircraft carrier! I thought he had to be full of shi#%#. I went and saw the car today and it was beautiful. It was grabber blue with white. The hemi head 429 engine had an huge blower with top fuel style injection. It also had zoomies sticking out the side. It looked like a top fuel dragster engine in a otherwise stock Boss 429 Mustang. There was also an old picture of it doing a wheelie on an aircraft carrier along with a bunch of articles and documentation. Evidently this was one of ten cars purchased by the goverment during the Vietnam war and was used to boost morale. If a toilet seat costs the goverment $1,000 I wonder what they paid for ten Boss 9's in '69? I am too young have heard about this. Hershel what do you know? Oh, the car had a star on the doors and said "Lawman" I believe. I may go back and take a picture if anyone wants to see it.
