In my personal opinion the 70 fastback is the most desirable of all early mustangs. I like them all and own a 66 and a 72. I do like the looks of the 69 better, but 70 running gear is better as far as I am concerned.

I am a little biased owning a 69 but these two years were some of the best for fastbacks. The aerodynamics and aggressive look are hard to beat and as time goes on they will appreciate well. I read recently that a 69 Boss went for 75K!

1970 and 1969 shared the same chassis and most body panels, with the exception of the front end treatment and a few options. I'm not really all that familiar with that body style. I know enough to get by.

In my personal opinion, I think the 70 looks awesome, but the 69 looks meaner and more aggressive.

a 69 Boss going for 75 K?????? They usually got any where from 27-47 K. Must of been a celebrties car or Larry Shinodas personal vehicle or something to go for that price.
