1978 King Cobra Photos
Well, I just added another II to the herd. An all original, non-restored 1978 King Cobra with T-tops. It has 39,000 documented miles. I will take better photos when it gets here, but here are some from the seller I thought I would share for now.

AWESOME 
Less miles than my 01
And with the T-tops 4speed you have managed to purchase my dream II configuration.
Planning on leaving it stock? or can I peer pressure you into mods

No mods for this one. Except a center console, when I find the perfect one. But I still have the Cobra II which is completely modded...under the hood. So one stock and one with a little more!

Console
I just found an original chrome trimmed console on Craigslist for $150.00 It arrived today, and looks super! I polished the chrome moulding and installed it.
What do you think?

Tell me about it lol. My best bets are mustangii.net, ebay and occasionally craigslist.
I'd say the luckiest part is the condition yours is in. The console in my car wasn't even that nice when I got it, despite the rest of the interior being flawless.

Sometimes Craigslist can surprise you. I just wish you could do a search on all of the states instead of one at a time. This car was a lucky find as everything works and it only has 39,180 actual miles. Even the paint is original!

A mustang owner actually put it together. It has hiccups occasionally, but it looks across craigslist ads by area and compiles a list broken down by make, model and year. It was pretty useful in my research leading up to buying my car.

I posted this in another thread, and while it doesn't do every state, it does by region (rather than city): http://www.rideslist.com/ A mustang owner actually put it together.
