This casting is a depiction of a 1969 Ford Mustang intended for Trans Am racing. This casting, while very similar in appearance to the '70 Ford Mustang Boss 302, is a different casting and is not to be confused with it; it is likely that this casting was modified from the earlier '70 Ford Mustang casting hence their similar outward appearance. Due to their similar appearance parts from one casting can be switched with another.

The casting has undergone two retools over the course of its life. In 2015, the casting lost its metal base and plastic spoiler, the latter being integrated into the body. The casting went through a further retool in 2019 where the front grill and rear panel were made part of the base.
