mustang ii      
Car of the Month - June 2009
Mike Smith's 1978 2+2


This is my 78 mustang II. My mom bought it brand new and I bought it from her when I was a senior in 1983. It started out as a bright yellow v6 car with the 4 speed,pretty much identical to the one in the ad: the convertible kick is back.

The car has gone through a couple of transformations but as of now it has :

  • Eagle 347 rotating kit
  • Mahle pistons bored .40 over
  • AFR 185 58cc heads
  • Comp roller cam 565 574 lift
  • Scorpion 1.6 roller rockers
  • Performer rpm intake
  • Holley 710 cfm double pumper
  • Mac cold air intake
  • MSD distributor
  • Summit digital ignition box w/rev limiter
  • Blackjack headers
  • Wilwood hydraulic clutch
  • 2.5 inch duals with X pipe
  • Stumpy`s sub frames
  • 3:55 track locks
  • Cal tracs traction bars
  • t5 with the "z" spec

    Now I know it`s not the quickest car on the street but it`s alot of fun and a real head turner.
