I had the same visions, mine was a 2.0L sedan. The kid who bought it from me didn't have it long:

sorry.. I stand by the II looking better than most of the Fox Bodies.. it is smaller and better proportioned.

I'd love to find a clean and cheap Mustang II or early Pinto, but the Florida rust has not been kind to them.

i almost bought a 72 Pinto hatch last summer for $600. it was granny fresh and had something like 70,000 miles on it it looked like brand new. it was bright orange with a black interior.. 4 cylinder/4 speed.. but it was gone by the time i got the money together, so i got my Camaro instead..

I actually owned a 78 cobra and it was outfitted with the stick. After I blew the tranny sky high I installed a c4 into the car. It was an extremely tight fit and took us a day with a hoist and several large hammers.Why do I bring this up you may ask??? Well after doing a little research (very little) I believe I discovered the car was never offered with a c4 but was actually equipped with the c3. The funny end to this story is that a local tranny shop at home was starting out and I was their first customer.Working off the floor and using jack stands they took nearly a week to do the work.Apparently the c4 didnt R+R any easier for them either. They still honored the 250$ price and are still in business to this day

The Mustang II should have used a C4, but came with a downsized converter and bellhousing.
