    Mustang II dash bezel insert survey

    Took the survey and hopefully this means that the inserts will be available again? Maybe they still are? Could use brushed aluminum bezels for the doors, dash, and coin tray.

    Hi. About to be new 76 owner. Many Questions

    Welcome Russ! Congrats on the new II! I would highly recommend the frame connectors made by Stumpy and think the are definately worth it! I did not realize how much flex was in these cars until I installed a set on my last II. I recently picked up a new project II myself and the first thing I...

    I'm back... With 76 Cobra II

    After doing some research and coming to realize just how few of the cobra II's are left I have decided that I will keep the exterior mostly original keeping the factory white with red strips. Painted strips instead of decals. Interior will be close to factory although I have always wanted to...

    I'm back... With 76 Cobra II

    Glad to see you are still here! Not much left to take apart so figuring out what is missing and how to put things back right is going to be a real puzzle. I will be needing a lot of help with this one! Hope all is going well for you! Wart: What is that chalk for any how? So a person can...

    I'm back... With 76 Cobra II

    It's been a few years, but I am back! Don't know if anyone remembers me, but I used to have a pretty sweet 75' Ghia that I had to sell. I have finally gotten myself a place with a garage and found a great restoration candidate. It's a 76' Cobra II, originally a 302 4 speed car and now a...

    The time has come....

    I plan to be there by mid February, but I will not be moving into the house until the end of February. It looks like I will be heading to Seattle for a couple weeks during that time. Honestly, being from Florida and Texas I have probably never owned a winter coat by your standards. I have...

    The time has come....

    Thanks for the compliment David, it will be a major change for me having lived in the south my entire life. I have not found a local buyer so the car is now on auction... http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=4606849185

    The time has come....

    I will be leaving Houston to move to New York and I will not be able to keep my II. :( I doubt this will be my last II and look forward to the future with the hope that one day I will own another II. Thanks for all of the help and support over the years and if all goes well the next one...

    Why Sal???!!!! Why??????!!!

    Sal, You can't sell it! That's my dream car... Well, until the reality that I don't have a place to finish it nor the funds to buy it set in. :( I could however promise to get it finished if you give it to me and put only your shop name on it as the soul sponsor and I will give you my 75'...

    powersteering disaster

    You could try re-routing a new belt (you will have to measure for size) around the crank, water pump, and then the alternator instead of the power steering. You will have to Change the spacer size on the alternator to get decent enough groove alignment to drive it home. Also use a small piece...

    High priced II

    Somebody send this guy a link for this COUPE on e-bay. This one is WAY nicer and probably will not go for what he wants for his. http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/78-MUSTANG-PRO-STREET-MAGAZINE-FEATURED-1-OF-A-KIND_W0QQitemZ4585742392QQcategoryZ6236QQrdZ1QQcmdZViewItem

    High priced II

    Maybe it runs 8s or 9s in the 1/8th? At the local 1/8 track here you need a helmet at 8.5. I for one would not mind seeing the II's get a little respect when it comes to value even though is he is clearly nuts. Also noticed the picture is nearly a YEAR OLD! Wonder what it looks like now?

    I hope not because when I was told the same thing I spent well over an hour going through every power steering hose in the local parts house inventory and only found one remotely close. It works, but about 10 to 12 inches longer than it needed to be. Thanks for posting the part numbers! :cheers:

    Super Clean II on....

    I kind of wonder why it would have needed the exhaust replaced with so few miles and what the condition of the under carriage might be. The panel alignment is so nice that I just can not imagine there ever being any major damage. My biggest concern would be the possibility of the new paint...

    Super Clean II on....

    I just noticed an extremely clean II with 21K original miles on auction. The colors might not be for everyone, but I sure would take this car in a heartbeat! Cars like this makes me wish I had been more patient, although there is no way I could feel good about doing any mods to it. Somebody...

    Mustang II popularity

    I know nothing about the actual weights of any of the cars as I have never had any of mine to a scale before. Would the presence or absence of A/C, power steering vs. manual, auto vs. standard tranny have alot to do with the weight?
