I had a black '77 coupe in high school with a 2v 302. It had a C4 auto and red interior. Great little car...fastest to 0-60 in high school. However, no weight in the back...totaled it on some black ice on a bridge. YOURS is BADASS! Great job...brought back some memories.
I think if Ford built the Mustang 2 like this, I don't see why anyone would hate them. Unfortunately, the oil crisis did more harm than anything to the Mustang 2 imo.
@@ChrisfromGeorgiaI just bought a 78 cobra, I’m now getting it ready for heads exhaust and plainly bolt ons, the lower compressions can easily be built
Very nicely done. My first and second cars were Mustang II's. They're long gone now & I Wish I would have hung on to at least one of them. I live in Alaska and they're impossible to find around here.
My very first automobile was a Brand new 1976 V8 4 speed coupe, I was 17 when I signed the loan papers, and took delivery. I ordered it with no A/C, and Traction Lok differential, and the coupe was 150lbs. lighter than the fastback. My goal, whip every 1976, and later stock GM vehicle that I could line up against, on the street. Take a guess how many I lost too?
Absolutely Beautiful. One of the sickest stangs I've ever seen. I also love the 2s and have a 77 Coupe with the 2.8 Auto. That has to go.. Rusted and rough you've inspired me to make it my next project. I just finished a 79 280zx
280Zs are bad ass!! this was a 4cyl/4-speed as well when i started with it. there's video here of day 1, prior to the build. you can find it on my page. originally built it as an automatic, and basically stock suspension, but all new, after one summer, i decided to tear that all out and put yet another rear end under it...and changed up the whole suspension and drive train and that's where it landed that next summer. :D
l d really like to know what these cars are like with a proper tuned engine ,l can only imagine how the combo of lots of bhp and torque in such a small car what results would be .....
the rear end is an 8.8 out of a 2008 GT, 3.28 gears, narrowed 2.5" with Moser axles, Caltrac traction set up, but custom sized to fit the II platform, willwood discs and adjustable rear shocks, i stayed with the leaf spring set up, but may in the future go 4-link and go coil overs. the front i did go coil over.
@@phestur13 did the axles come size needed or did you have to shorten them, I got axles and drums out of a ranger and now have to shorten them, have them resplined and drill that access hole
Hi! My husband just bought a 1976 mustang II coupe.. He's planning to do a full restoration on the car although the body is still in great condition.. He already has a '65 mustang coupe and has already bought some sheet metal from cjponyparts.com. The problem is that there seem to be no aftermarket sheet metal or other parts for the mustang II.. Can you anyone recmmend us a website or a place where we can order parts for this car? Again, the car is in great shape with no rust. But just in case we do find rusted areas, it would be of great help if we know where to find sheet metal or other parts for this little coupe.. Thanks from the philippines..

Frigglebiscuit Phenix City, Alabama I believe is where they are. I have had a fox that I have owned and enjoyed for the last 12 years, but my little brother bought a 1976 Cobra II this summer as his first project so I scoured across all the Mustang Sites I knew to find parts for his car. I actually just ordered his Christmas present yesterday from them
Adam - we are looking for a Mustang II to use in an article and track day at an exclusive Motorsports country club in So Cal for a tire company. If you're interested you'd get tires and track time and have a great day - let me know if you're interested. Email me at TrackDay at kahnmedia dot com.
The engine is a 5.0 liter [302] block bored to 347 CID the crank and rods lengthened to give it a broader stroke thus making it a 347 stroker. i think it is awesome that you, in Russia, is into the American muscle cars, very cool!! i'll answer any questions you may have on the cars and engines!! to the best of my knowledge. i have built many.
BAD MOTHERFUCKIN ASS! FUCK THE HATERS, there all just too nearsighted to see its potential! although I would love if it were a cobra ii the hatchback is way cooler!
I wish I could see some time slips on that. Great car. Really love it.
it is hateful for sure!!! Vader is its name.
Glad to see someone had the balls to do a coupe. I considered it a few years back. Great job on the car.......I love the II's.
Amen !!

The no weight in the back make it loose traction?
@@Frankgzz24yes that’s why most mustangs crash
Lose traction. Never heard of loose traction before. @@Frankgzz24
I love the mustang 2 it's a shame a lot of people hate them
I think if Ford built the Mustang 2 like this, I don't see why anyone would hate them. Unfortunately, the oil crisis did more harm than anything to the Mustang 2 imo.
@Tony Maurice Excellent point! Didn't Ford also initially want the Probe to be the new Ford Mustang?

Adam has a nice stang! Way to go! 👌👍
Holy crap that thing is awesome !! That was my first car a 1976 mustang cobra 2
Nice ride. They're good cars for sure. And great starting points for a muscle car build.

Wow that paint kills! Beautiful!

LOVE THESE FORGOTTEN MUSTANGS

I don't believe I ever saw a couple that was a Cobra.

very nice car!
Love it
Very nice job sir. My 2 is still in a million pieces in the garage. :-(
Really nice
Black Sunshine
this style Mustang sold just over 1.1 million in the 4 years it was produced.....
Nice looking car
I had two 1969 Mustangs and know their weak points and believe no other Mustang is better than a Mustang II DONE RIGHT.
I haven't watch the whole video but I sure hope you do a test drive if not please do one,and BTW, very nice,no,very very nice car
there's several "point of view" drive videos of it on my page.
l d really like to know what these cars are like with a proper tuned engine ,l can only imagine how the combo of lots of bhp and torque in such a small car what results would be .....
WOW VERY NICE
Do you still own this baby Adam?
I had a 1977 Mustang || Cobra || when I was 18 and wish I had never let it go.
yes, still got it! :D
Where did you get the valance for the front bumper?
@@flylyfe5526 classic auto reproductions
Amigo felicidades se ve muy bien tu auto que tipo de escape tiene?
Hell yes
torque thrust II, i painted them the same color as my stripes 16X10 rear, 15X8 front.
I'm building a 78 mustang II now, in like what you did in the rear end. what are you using for a setup?
the rear end is an 8.8 out of a 2008 GT, 3.28 gears, narrowed 2.5" with Moser axles, Caltrac traction set up, but custom sized to fit the II platform, willwood discs and adjustable rear shocks, i stayed with the leaf spring set up, but may in the future go 4-link and go coil overs. the front i did go coil over.
@@phestur13 did the axles come size needed or did you have to shorten them, I got axles and drums out of a ranger and now have to shorten them, have them resplined and drill that access hole
these are Moser axels, had them shortened 2.5"
keep calm toreto
this is so bitchen I love it

they do suck but urs dont
Man there's a guy selling a '77 V8 Ghia in my area but the asshole wants 8k for it. All stock too no mods to bring up the price that much lol
What kinds of brakes and calipers your running?
willwood discs 4-piston calipers all around.
Nice II! I have a '77 coupe also, 500+ hp 332" in it
it is american big block?
+Max Tyga it's a small block 347 stroker.
phestur13 Thank you friend, I'll know .I from Russia, in the American classic engines currently do not quite understand.
The engine is a 5.0 liter [302] block bored to 347 CID the crank and rods lengthened to give it a broader stroke thus making it a 347 stroker. i think it is awesome that you, in Russia, is into the American muscle cars, very cool!! i'll answer any questions you may have on the cars and engines!! to the best of my knowledge. i have built many.
@@phestur13 most of that is correct, from my understanding it's only bored 30 over making it a 306, then stroked to achieve 347 ci.
BAD MOTHERFUCKIN ASS! FUCK THE HATERS, there all just too nearsighted to see its potential! although I would love if it were a cobra ii the hatchback is way cooler!
