Thread: There has to be someone on here with a Mustang II !!!

    There has to be someone on here with a Mustang II !!!

    Someone has to have one of these! They really were not that bad a car. 302s ran pretty good for the anemic 70s!!

    I have seen some nice ones (as long as they dont have that giant COBRA decal on it)!

    I used to live in Stockdale, there was a red one parked outside of a shop. That was two or three years ago. Real clean but never really saw it move.

    I'm sure there is but there was never a forum for them to post in, so I created one

    That's the reason for my screen name here! My second car was a '78 Mustang Cobra II... yep, it had the big ugly stickers. Worse yet, it was a V6. I enjoyed the car though. It did handle well.

    He's not real active on here, but Mark Brewer is cobra_II or something like that. He has a '78 King Cobra Mustang II, that is all black, really nice car. He runs in Modified at PRP.

    My first car was a 75 Mustang II, started life as a 4 cyl, and about 4 years in ended up with a 68 302 and a C4, never a 'rocket ship' but performed OK and sounded great. Wedging the headers into that car was an absolute nightmare, I remember spending countless hours working on that beast, and scouring salvage yards in the late 80's early 90's to find parts.

    I sold it about 10 years ago (still kick myself in the ass), it may still be on the road somewhere. Thought about getting another, but never did, I would buy that one back though, in a heartbeat! It was a 'family' car - went from my uncle (original owner) to my cousin to my mom, then me. I still find paperwork for laying around my garage.

    A near miss..... re-engineered

    It would be cool to stuff an SVO turbo 2.3 into a Cobra II.

    That would have been the ticket (if the technology existed back then).

    It could have transformed the II into a desirable classic!

    Nice Mustang II. Years ago when I just got my 86 GT, there was a 1978 Mach 1 for sale. It had a 302 and T tops. I came close to buying it for $1500, It was a clean car when I lived in FLA!!!

    I had a another friend of mine who had a truck model (notch back?) that he threw a warmed up 302 in. Yes I would enjoy driving it.

    I seem to like the odd body type vehicles (Fairmont, LTD IIs, Thunderbirds, Capris etc)
