I have become a fan of the Mustang II in recent years. It's a terrible car right off of the showroom floor, but one of the few classic mustangs that I would not see a problem with modifying to become a pocket rocket.

I totally would rock one of these after I completed Coyote transplant. When done right, they are sexy as hell.

Isn't that the one with the V10?

Hey now, my first car was a 74 II with the 2.3L I4. Slow as piss, but could U-turn within its own radius. One of those with a coyote and full-on Mad Max Fury Road garb would be awesome.

The Probe wouldve been a good platform if Ford had a decent turbo 4cyl option in those days. As I remember, the last iteration Probe GT was about on par with an Integra or Prelude.
