    pinto interchangeability

    No Mustang II body panels will fit on a Pinto. The Front bumer will fit on 75 and up Pinto's I had a 1978 Mercury Bobcat and a II at the same time. Although the two cars are very similar, very few parts interchange. Mechanically 1975 and up Pinto's have alot in common with II's. Front...

    86 5.0

    The 86 H.O has no valve reliefs in the pistons, so go easy on the cam profile. To check to see if it is an H.O pull the intake and see if it has roller lifter guide plates. Also find a factory roller cam distributor gear or you will have a big problem!! (SVO I mean Ford Motorsport......Ford...

    if you could go back to january of 73....

    My 78 merc Bobcat had aluminum bumpers. I bolted the front one to a II. (It bolts right on and even looks good). The only problem was the rear. The rear bumper was too narrow so I chopped it up a bit, but it looked stupid because it had the indent for the plate in it, thus the car had two rear...

    if you could go back to january of 73....

    I took my new gerl friend to see the II and took her for what could be best described as a drift around the block. I had not seen the II in a few months and I forgot one thing. The wipers are ugly!!! Ford should have extended the hood to the windsheild and hid those ugly suckers:D The girl...

    NOS Quarter!

    I have a left and a right hanging in my garage. They are re-pops though. They do not extend that far up the car though. They go from the door to the bumper, but only extend to just above the gas filler hole. NOT FOR SALE!!!! I am saving them in case I hit something at an open-track day:D

    where are all the customs?

    First off "custom" is spelled Kustom:Word: My car has some mild kustomizing. The door handles,antenna hole, trunk lock and gas filler are all shaved. It has street bike side mirrors and the old skool Ford hood scoop (functional). When I win the lotto it will have kool wheels too:D

    Movie Review!

    Hey Blue Thunder you forgot the other fighter helicopter show was it not called Blue Thunder?? (seriously) :rlaugh: I want to build a Kitt replica. The 1983 Trans-Am would be easy enough, finding the Pontiac 14" hubcaps that everbody lost or tossed out would be harder. Hey I wonder if the...

    C4 Ball - Where does it go?

    Take a picture of the ball. I rebuilt my C4 with a kit from B&M. I think the instruction manual for the rebuild kit is at my garage. Maybe I could find out where it should go for you. :shrug:

    Should I encourage II ownership?

    My goal with my II restoration was to have "a new 1978 Mustang". To that end I replaced or rebuilt everything. The car is now solid as a rock, it does not squeek, rattle or do any old car stuff! In keeping with my original dream, I can jump in and drive it anywhere with 100% confidence. The...
