Hello all, just picked this up from a field and have been trying to get the owner to sell for 5 years now, had it delivered last week. It started out as a base 2+2 with a 2.8 standard trans but now has a 302 and a non working auto in it. I'll be keeping the V-8 and not sure just yet if a manual will go back in, put Marvel Mystery Oil in each cylinder the day It arrived, let it set until last night, changed the oil ( the Mystery Oil went in there as well) and it cranked right up and ran good. I'm moving forward with stripping the car for media blasting and looking for any and all parts I can find, not gonna clone it but would like spoilers, louvers and opening rear windows. Any help on benders or just someone someone knows who has a few parts laying around would be helpful. Noticed 2015 was the last time most threads were active and hope this isn't a dead end, but if it is and all of you have given up on the ii you can give all your parts to me.

There's about a dozen of us in the Mustang II Talk/Tech section that still post semi-regularly.
