HO Mustang Boss 429 '70 - Orange (MG+) Slot Car (AFX21050)

The HO Mustang Boss 429 '70 in striking orange is a slot car that captures the essence of one of the rarest muscle cars ever produced. Built to enable Ford to develop a Hemi engine for competition in NASCAR, only 1,358 units of this powerful machine were manufactured between 1969 and 1970, complying with homologation rules. Officially rated at 375 HP, it was widely believed to perform closer to 500 HP, making it a true powerhouse.

This model features the iconic oversized flat black hood scoop and Boss 429 logo, emblematic of its heritage. Despite its production ending due to slowing sales and high costs, the Mustang Boss 429 has garnered significant value in the collector's market, currently fetching prices over $500,000.

The slot car is equipped with the FN20 Advanced Power Unit, which is lighter, smoother, and more energy-efficient compared to previous models. It boasts the narrowest and lowest chassis available, ensuring exceptional realism and handling. Enhanced pick-up shoes allow for better power delivery, while the low center of gravity contributes to improved cornering capabilities.

Additionally, the car features AFX's exclusive extra-long tapered guide pin, which enhances track retention, and Level 30 Neodymium Ground Effects Magnets that ensure stability during high-speed runs. Made from super durable Nylatron and equipped with high carbon power unit brushes, this slot car offers long-lasting performance and reliability.

At its core, the Mega G+ chassis not only ensures speed but also offers superior handling characteristics, making for an engaging racing experience. Paired with the Mega G+ Race System, which includes AFX120 Controllers and an Exclusive Tri-Power Pack, this model strikes a perfect balance of grip and speed, designed for both novice and experienced slot car enthusiasts alike.
