No, unfortunately they're not mine, but after spending a huge amount of time laying under a car scraping off undercoating and preping rust, a rotissorie will be part of any car I restore in the future!

Here's the link:

http://www.theguildofautomotiverestorers.com/1979_mustang2_9252/index.html

The webpage title is "1979 Mustang II", but the ID cards in some of the photo's say 1978, so the resto staff are not clueless.

The pics are of a bare-metal restoration with a T-Top install and through-the-floor subframe connectors. The color in the last few pics is pretty sharp, a little brighter than the 1996 Mustang Saphire color.

This "Guild of Automotive Restorers" company seems to do some real high-end restorations, so its nice to see a MII getting this level of treatment.

Must have changed it to GM bolt pattern. The later shots it looks like it has like 1982? Camaro Z28 Wheels?

Dunno how I missed that! Its a new Currie rear, so I guess that they could have ordered any pattern they wanted. Once you get to 5-lug there are so many choices, why bother with a GM pattern?
