IIs are hard to find. check local ads and craigslist.com (how i found mine) too. also give the classifieds section on mustangii.net a try.

oh and keep in mind what you're getting youselrf into. IIs, aside from rarities like bosses and such, are among the hardest mustangs to find parts for.

ask me how i know

--BUT--

They are still most certainly a blast to own

Certainly not a King Cobra. But I have a MINT 78 Silver Fastback w/T-Tops, Full Red interior, V-6, Auto. A true "Secretary's Car" to quote Carroll Shelby. Only has 10,700 miles on her.

Before you all start laughing. Rescued it from someone who was going to chop it up and make a racer out of it. So I added it to my stable, for my wife, for safekeeping. Problem now is, it's taking up space, and there is nothing to do to it. She is appraised at $11,500. She is for sale for $9,000.

Soooo, if you know anyone looking for a mint keeper, of the Mustang that keeps us alive today, just PM me for details.

That is one amazingly great looking II.

If I was in the market, I would sure give it a closer look, especially with the insanely low miles.

Thanks guys. She got a history. Bought new, and lived her life on an Island off CapeCod, Mass. She was found in a barn on an estate aution where she sat for nearly 20 years. Owner previous to me, bought the contents of the barn, unaware she was in there. He and now I, have brought her back to original beauty, by merely cleaning her up, and replaceing rubber throughout. Had her out last weekend, and watched her turn 11,000. miles. Runs like a new baby. Hate to give her up, BUT, not much I can do for her now, except make sure she stays with a well maintained Mustang Family somewhere, and not get hacked up and modded.
