NOS upper and lower control arms were installed during the restoration, long with brand new Koni shocks front and rear, ew brakes. The front brakes had new rotors pressed onto the original inner hats, hus retaining the original spindles instead of converting to 1970 parts. New stainless brake lines were installed throughout.

General info

This car has less than 2000 miles on a complete ground-up rotisserie restoration in 2003. Great expense was made to bring this classic back to original condition. If NOS parts were available the money was spent. Although it was restored with the intention to drive, t is very show worthy.The list of parts that are new NOS, e-chromed, r reconditioned is endless. All I can say is not a single part on this car went untouched and AMK hardware was used throughout the entire car. It is truly a brand new 1969 Boss 302. Some additional items not mentioned: new stainless fuel lines, ew Carlite windshield, ew NOS fuel tank and sender unit, nd new NOS front bumper.
