Looks like you had to do all the same bodywork as mine, Everything.. looks awesome.

I used to want one of those Cougars. Still love the design of it, but its not for me anymore. Great video.

Put a better drive system drop it and widen it make it go like 40 or 50

It's definitely not from New England. A.K.A. "Home of the rust demons"

You tube wouldn’t be steeling music and selling it to content maker’s would it?

That unibody is in AMAZING condition for over 25 years AND 200k miles. Wow. Must've parked it often when it rained or something.

Sad no v8 2 stroke

Lower it and strengthen up the frame

Well done mate make sure you give it an oil and filter change (wixs) asap and new spark plugs and check your rear axle oil !!! But we'll done for saving this old classic and enjoy restoring it you will learn so much from it 😊😊

Two stroke V8 is such an awsome idea.❤ Please convert a Ford 460 to nitro methane 2 stroke.😊

"GET ER DONE" !

Looks like a fun project! The AJE is a must, but finding a front swaybar to work will be a problem.

They make AWESOME HiHP platforms too : ruclips.net/video/tRHLy38zsYE/видео.html&pp=ygUQOTI4cndocCBjb2JyYSBpaQ%3D%3D

That looks exactly like my 1978 King Cobra, except mine had a black interior. You're going to need a new set of headers, those are rotten.

Lmfao

That is a Two Stroke conversion candidate bro. Make that thing scream and fly !

I’ve been on the fence about trying to track a ‘78 down. I have an ‘04 GT convertible that I bought new. I’m giving to my son for his graduation from college gift literally this week lol. Need another Mustang. Either something old or a newer Shelby. Where in Florida are you ? I’m in Cape Coral.

Haha my uncle had that same car and the engine blew up and he put the engine and trans from his old satellite in it!😅

My grandma drove a dark red one of these for years until she got a Saturn

cool project.how much are the 4 valves goin for thees days?

Id say your problem was your starter that engine does not sound blown up

I wonder if she may have hit a deer. There are tons in GA. I've had one jump at the last second and land on my hood. Thankfully I had braked so hard the car was down to about 20 and nose diving. Kept it out of my windshield too.

2v would have ripped for another 25 years!! But the 4v mark motor will be fun!! Also The fox chassis thunderbirds and cougars are much lighter..

You're going to need a 12 bay garage added on to that 2 bay soon. You could just sell the house and buy an abandoned car mechanic shop. I'm sure your wife would love living in an old mechanic shop.

I'm a simple weirdo, i see a ford from the era where ford peaked and i click

Cougar looks better than the Thunderbird gang reporting in.

Rip to the frame when he puts a throttle pedal on it the frames gonna look like twisted twizzler

WELL FOR STARTERS NO ONE HIT THEIR FACE ON THE DASH NO CRUNCHING NO GRINDING SHES A NATURAL YOU ARE THE COOLEST BROTHER EVER AND WHAT A WAY TO SHOW OFF YOUR BABY SISTER THE WORLD WONT DISAPPOINT HER WAY TO SHOW HOW TO LOVE YOUR PARENTS MUST BE SO PROUD LOOK HOW YOU TURNED OUT GOOD JOB :)

Hey sir, I live quite close to you. How much would you chage for installing a 7.3 in my S197 (05-09)?

More like the king of all re bodied Pinto’s…

.25x for more cake 🎂

Sweet ride!👍

I’m 57 years old and have had dozens of Mustangs throughout my life. Watching this video and seeing your excitement about this car totally makes me smile reminding me of when I was your age and buying a cool Fox body Mustang when I was in my early 20’s. I have subscribed to your channel just because of your excitement about this car, and my interest in what you’re going to end up doing with it! Congrats!!

I agree with the comments about your fuel in the oil problem being the pump. Seems like if it was blowing by the rings and filling the pan like you described there wouldn't be hardly enough compression to fire.

I vote you leave second to none on drivers side alone. I think it looks good.

Love the car! For some reason, some folks like to hate on these cars and forget that while the Mustang ll was based on Ford's economy car (the Pinto), it was actually true to the same formula used for the original Mustang which was based on Ford's econo-car of that era, the Falcon. Great find dude! Enjoy!

Adapt a centrifugal clutch to each end of the motor. You'll go 22 MPH @ 3,600 RPM just like a regular go-kart. Or 35 @ 5,700 RPM

I always liked the style and paint/trim on those but as far as being a good car they left a lot to be desired. I don't think I'd call these models the "King of all Mustangs"

Back in about 1985, my best friend and I were car shopping for him. He was looking for a Mustang. I discovered the local Ford dealer had an incredibly well kept King Cobra (red in color) that had just been traded in on a new Mustang. Very low mile as well. We went and checked it out and it was completely flawless in every respect. I was totally drooling over it, begging my friend to buy it. He hated it and ended up buying a 1979 Turbo Mustang with a manual transmission. At least I got to drive the King Cobra for a little while during the test drive. Cool car you got there.

Original or restomod. Always liked them.

Cool car kid, you seem pretty happy n proud, survivors are really rare now. When i was like 8 or 9 there was a 76 nova SS that used to drive by my grand parents i thought it was super cool it was loud, jacked up , 14" aluminum slotted mags, 60 series tires and custom ss stripes on the hood n trunk. The car was only a few years old, any way i grew up forgot about it then in my mid 20s (1995ish) i made a trade for money and a nova for my really sweet 85 z28, so i go to look at the nova an when i pulled in i said hey is that big eds wife's old nova? Yup, I thought it was cool as hell the car i would hear then run out to the road to watch go by was mine now. That thing was a burnout machine! Supposedly the sheriff's dept had so many complaints of burn outs they were all looking for me I was told when I got pinched doing a burnout.

🇺🇸👍 Good luck with your King Cobra 🐍. I own a 76 V6 4 speed, and a 77 V6 automatic. I also own a 2016 V6 Mustang automatic since new and owned an early model 65 K code 4 speed, AC, PS, but sold it after 15 years BIG MISTAKE. Yours will be a money pit for awhile, but you’re starting off with really good bones and only 39K on it. Enjoy it maybe you’ll hand it down to one of your kids later in life.

The newer Mustangs aren't really my thing, but this one sure is. Great car, rare as heck, and that dark metallic blue over camel is one of the best color combos that these came in. Great find!

I used to have two of these and they were the most annoying things to work on ever.

A fool and his money will soon depart..

All Pintos had Rack and pinion.
