Ford (http://www.autoblog.com/make/ford/) is continuing its tradition of auctioning off a Mustang (http://www.autoblog.com/model/mustang) for charity at Barrett-Jackson (http://www.autoblog.com/tag/barrett-jackson) this month by offering a one-off 2012 Mustang Boss 302 Laguna Seca (http://www.autoblog.com/2010/08/13/ford-mustang-boss-302-is-back-for-2012/) painted Grabber Blue. Regular production versions of the car will only be offered in either black or silver with red accents. "Since this Boss Mustang will have a very low production number and be specially built for our 40th anniversary event, the new owner will have a special piece of performance history for their collection," says Steve Davis, president of Barrett-Jackson.
