I should start calling mine a Boss 302, 'cause it's a HiPo 302. LOL

Some times just the way the ad is written gives me enough red flags to not call! Not to mention no engine pictures, undercage pictures interior pictures, trunk pictures or Marti report. 28K?

The thing that bothers me are the shackels on the rear leafs. Have never been a big fan of that way to lift the car.

WHAT AN IDIOT! Response from the seller :confused:

Hi Randy,

I appreciate your interest in our car, but Ford must have used the K code designation on some of the 68 cars including this California Special. It is a K code car and we also have the Marti report verifying the designation and the 289 hi-po engine. I don't know how many 68's carry the K code designation or the 289 engine, but this car is definately one of them. Thanks again for your email concerning our car.

Nick

Hmmm... a K code with a C. Is that kind of like crab with a K?

And rear shackles are probably still better then what I did to my first car as a 16 year old kid; air shocks!!! No better way to rip right through the floor of your Mustang then to pump those babies up to 100 psi and hit a speed bump at speed.
