Thanks, you don't see much on the web for Mustang II. It looks like a well preserved car, except for the non stock rims.
Didn't someone offer a supercharger kit for the Mach I's Cologne V6 at the time?

Synchro, That pic is of a 75! 74 didn't have V-8's! I bought a new blue 74 V-6 Mach 1 ! Nice car but the tranny didn't hold up to good! They fixed it twice while it was still under warrantee! I traded it on a V-8 Cobra II! It was and automatic!

Ya, it's a Mach I you can get the details on mustangii.org but I find it odd that it has Cobra Badging all over it.

So heres the scoop on the scoop! What you see on the car is a result of endless measurements and internet searching, then customizing by me. I love this scoop cause the center ridge is identical to the OEM II hood! Anyway, I found this scoop and came up with a plan, believe it or not it is a scoop made by Unlimited products from a 69 Chevelle hood curve. Heres what you need to do, Oh BTW it IS Bolt on, no glassing in needed.
1) Get hood scoop SC-124 (link below)
2) Place on Mustang II hood and mark the length you want.
3) Cut the end of the scoop off duplicating the overhang cut.
4) Reinforce the new end underneath with fiberglass to prevent sagging.
5) Paint/Bolt on
Oh yes, one other thing, I put foam tape underneath to prevent paint chipping when you close the hood. Heres the link:

Anyway glad to share, if it helps the II image YEA BABY!

You actually could get the Cobra II package on a Mach I from the factory... imagine a Mustang II Mach I Cobra II. That's a long name!

I always liked the Stallion Package. Wasn't that available on the Maverick as well, and I think I've seen some Pinto's (might have been a concept/pre-production) Stallion Package.
