Mustang II Facebook in Pa

And I don't care what anyone says, I like these.  One of these could be fun in CAM as long as you are there for fun and not world domination.

Not just a Mustang II but a Mustang II Cobra.

I had an r/c one as a kid.

I think the styling has grown on me.

 

I also can't hear "Mustang II" without thinking "Mustang II, Electric Boogaloo"

In reply to Colin Wood :

I think it’s an attractive car as well. IIRC, the engine bay is on the narrow side.

These were built with 302's in some versions.  That one has the V8 badging.  I had a 2.8l V6 Mach 1 as my first car.

I had two of these with the 302, 4 speed.  Both 78s, a Mach 1 and a King Cobra.  Loved them both but the Mach 1 was a very nice example.

Always felt they built similar then it never evolved and the '79 was awesome and different.  Maybe Ford had a future SVO Capri/MII on there hands?

 I keep thinking about getting one of these and would love it to look like that one. Surprised it looks so close in height to the Fiero beside it.
