Synopsis

STORY OF SMOKEY YUNICK'S BOSS MUSTANG

The Story Behind Smokey Yunick's Boss Mustang is just one of 50 entertaining true stories from the collector car world.

A persistent Porsche mechanic who asked each 904 owner if their car would be for sale after a race. He paid only $7,000 to one agreeable owner and the car recently sold for over a million dollars...

Celebrities like Steve McQueen, who bought a Jaguar XK-SS, originally created for the track but turned into a street car by the factory, now worth $10 million!...
