Revell - 1971 Ford Mustang Boss 351 scale 1:24

The 1971 Ford Mustang Boss 351 belongs to the second category. Produced for just one model year, the Boss 351 combined the redesigned, wider Mustang body with a powerful Cleveland V8 and aggressive performance styling. Revell recreates this rare piece of American muscle-car history in a detailed 1:25 scale plastic model kit, featuring all-new tooling and an impressive level of detail.

The 1971 Mustang Boss 351

For 1971, the Mustang received a major redesign, becoming longer, wider, and more substantial than the previous generation. The Boss 351 was the performance-focused model of this new body style, based on the sporty SportsRoof configuration.

The Boss 351 was produced for only one year, with approximately 1,806 examples built, making the original car a particularly distinctive chapter in Mustang history.

Revell's kit captures the muscular proportions and distinctive lines of the 1971 Mustang, making it an excellent project for fans of classic Ford performance cars.

Powerful 351 Cleveland V8

At the center of the Boss 351 is its specially modified 351-cubic-inch (5.8-liter) Cleveland V8, rated at approximately 330 horsepower in the original car.

Revell gives the engine special attention with a highly detailed multi-part Cleveland V8. The engine compartment also features numerous separate components, allowing builders to add realistic colors and finishes to create an impressive mechanical centerpiece. 

Twin Ram Air Hood

One of the most recognizable features of the Boss 351 is its aggressive hood design with twin Ram Air scoops.

The Revell model reproduces this distinctive feature while also providing a movable hood, allowing the detailed engine compartment to remain visible when the finished model is displayed. 

Bold Boss 351 Styling

The 1971 Mustang's redesigned body gave it a more substantial and aggressive appearance than earlier models. The SportsRoof silhouette, sculpted bodywork, long hood, and short rear deck create the unmistakable profile of an early-1970s American muscle car.

Revell's new tooling was developed specifically to capture the Boss 351's unique details and proportions. The kit is molded in white and clear plastic, with chrome-plated components and soft black tires. 

Authentic Boss 351 Graphics

The visual identity of the Boss 351 is completed by its distinctive graphics.

The kit includes an extensive decal sheet featuring Boss 351 graphics in silver and black, giving builders the opportunity to reproduce the period-correct appearance of the original car.

Careful decal application can add a significant amount of character to the completed model and highlight the aggressive styling of the Boss Mustang.

Detailed Interior

Inside, the model continues the attention to detail with a detailed cabin and separate door panels.

The interior can be finished in a variety of colors depending on the look you want to achieve, giving modelers room to personalize their build while maintaining the character of the original Mustang.

Wheels, Tires and Chassis

The Boss 351's muscular proportions are complemented by period-style wheels and soft black tires, helping give the finished model an authentic stance.

The chassis and underside also provide additional opportunities for detail painting, allowing builders to create a more complete representation of the original vehicle rather than focusing solely on the exterior.

All-New Tooling

One of the major highlights of this release is its all-new tooling, created specifically for the 1971 Mustang Boss 351. The kit contains 129 parts and is rated Level 4, making it a detailed project suited to modelers with some previous experience.

The kit is recommended for ages 12 and up and builds into a model approximately 192 mm long.
