Think about this question very carefully 'cause both sides are very powerful.

there are several Shelbys that will always be worth more than a B302. Not sure about a B9, however....

I like the '69 and '70 Boss '9s more than the '69 and '70 Shelbys, but not as much as the '65-68 Shelbys.

It would be tough, 66 GT 350 vs. 1970 Boss 302, but I would choose the Boss given the wonderful choice to choose. I'd take a '69 Boss 429 over them all!

The earlier years were better for the Shelby's (65-68) but the later years were better for the Boss's. But I gotta go with my favorite car of all time, 1967 Shelby GT 500, so of course I went with the Shelby's

If I had a choice, it would have to be a 65 GT350. The 69 Boss 302 is a close second though.

Although I like the Shelby's, my dream car is a '70 Boss 302, Calypso Coral with the spoilers, shaker and rear window slats.

It is up to a personal preference. A '69 or '70 Boss 429 would be very rare, and very tempting. With this scenario I would take the Boss.

The Boss mustang was the mustang that got me into ALL mustangs in the 1st place. So Boss for me. Now which Boss will it be is a whole different poll.

I love the Shelbys, but a 69 Boss 302 in Calypso Corral is my alltime favourite. So I voted Boss

This one is easy for me simply because I prefer the early cars.

SHELBY!
