Much has been said about the virtues and flaws of the Mustang II, but there’s no denying that without its compromises, the sixth generation may have never happened. As much as people love to hate this particular iteration, sometimes the underlying values are too cool to be ignored. 37 photos
Let’s take this 1977 Ford Mustang II Mach 1 example, which is the polar opposite of Dylan McCool’s recent find of a 1977 Cobra II that sat for 27 years before he rescued it for one last road trip and quarter-mile drag strip incursion.
It’s on sale from eBay on dealer consignment, stemming from the neat inventory of MotoeXotica, an outlet that’s usually known for dealing with star-powered creations. They’re going the understated route this time around, although this again comes with a (proper) twist.
Ford’s Mustang II doesn't get a lot of love and attention from classic car aficionados, but Dylan McCool still decided to save this beat-down 302ci Cobra example after seeing it on the side of the road close to home and finding out it has been abandoned for almost three decades. And he’s putting in quite a lot of time and passion because he’s got a lofty target in mind.
