    Build your own, there was never a factory made one with a Boss 302.

    :Welcome: roadie!

    Like mentioned, there was never a factory built 1971-77 Comet with a Boss 302, nor a 4-speed.

    :Welcome: from Northeast Pennsylvania

    None came with the "Boss" version of the 302 with the Cleveland type heads - lot of them are out there with a standard Windsor 302 though :tiphat:

    Where are you from, Roadie?

    There was a Cougar Eliminator, and it could be had with most any V8 (except Boss 429, but they did make them with wedge 429s). You could order these with a Boss 302.

    I know where someone has two of these Boss 302 cars. He also has a buttload of 69 and 70 Mustangs ... all resto candidates. Mind-boggling ... I walked out of his place in shock ....

    Never any more than a stock 302, 2V, with three speed on the floor. Maverick or Comet. Welcome to the forum!

    I agree on the Cougar Eliminator, Except that there was a 428 super CJ that was an option! That was the bad a$$ of the options! If you've got one of those, you've got gold! :thumbs2:
