Here's another prototype MII design:

 

The red KC convertible was in "Mustang Monthly" several years ago. It is thought to be one of a group of 44 conversions of 1977 coupes done by Emmiss Coachbuilders of Florida USA and sold through a Ford dealer in Texas. The usual story is that the dealership created this one "KC" convertible with Ford replacement parts. So its not a production KC, but its really nice anyway!

I've seen 3 or 4 of the Emmiss convertibles on the web over the years. I've attached pics of 2 of them. A identifying feature seems to be the tiny rear quarter window which may be part of the original Ghia insert.

Another one:

 

never thought about it before, but the convertible-ness really brings out the best of the II's body style. especially on that first one

 

i know where there is a beatup II with t-tops in a wrecking yard close by. think i need to go buy it and start chopping might as well since it was originally a 4 banger car and no longer has the roof glass anyway

 

go4it!!!!

 

I have to say the first Vert up top looks stunning.

 

Thanks Zoran!!

Those top photos of the King Cobra 'Vert look amazing.

 

No prob.

It does look ... different, doesn't it?

 

Can you imagine how that critter must flex, even with additional structure added?
