Iron Man's New Ride

WE’VE KNOWN FOR A WHILE THAT Robert Downey Jr. has fantastic taste in cars. His garage is home to an eclectic mix of automobiles: from a stylish and sophisticated Mercedes-Benz SL Pagoda to a fun and economical Volkswagen Golf GTI. But, we were blown away when we saw his newest toy—a totally custom 1970 Ford Mustang Boss 302 that he commissioned from Wisconsin-based shop, SpeedKore Performance Group.

Chopping up a first-generation Mustang Boss 302, now a coveted collector’s piece, took some serious guts. The Boss 302 was Ford’s response to Chevrolet’s then-new Camaro Z/28, which at the time dominated the Sports Car Club of America’s Trans-Am racing series. Ford produced a very limited number over two model years, ’69 and ’70, developing its performance Mustang around a high-output engine: a stout 4.9-litre V-8 with oversized heads, putting out almost 300 horsepower. New weapon in hand, Ford took the Trans-Am series title in 1970, and the Boss 302 mythos blossomed.
