thanks but i already have a spare v8 and 2 c4 tranies and wanna put that in it.the motor is a rebuilt 80 mustang motor so its a 4.2l and doesnt make much power but it would be cool to put in here to make this car a driver again. its my bosses car, he might just give it to me free. it starts way hard, if it wasnt for that i might tackle the timing chain and throw a newer tranny in it. its a stang no one has and i like stuff no one has.
and why would i want a modern car?????? i have a 86 gt and a 93lx that are daily drivers

ive done like 5 swaps or so by now. and i think that the 78 cobra was a 302 car, so this v6 one would fit a 302 no big deal, prolly wont fit with foxbody motor mounts, but never know. maybe get crazzier and rebuild and turbo a six in it!.lol

yeah its the same the cobra has ground effects. its like comparing say a 87 gt to a 87 lx hatch 5.0. just groundeffects

Is this the same body style as like the Cobra 2 kind of? Like a mix between a Pinto and a Mustang?
