Coyote V8-Swapped 1978 Ford Mustang II

Coyote V8-Swapped 1978 Ford Mustang II

This 1978 Ford Mustang II has undergone a remarkable transformation by the Revolution Speed Shop of Auburn, Washington. Originally fitted with a Triton V10, it now features a second-gen 5.0-liter Coyote V8 engine. The build includes a Holley TerminatorX ECU, a custom stainless steel exhaust, and a six-speed manual transmission from a Corvette C6. The suspension and brake setup also come from a C6 Z06, enhancing its performance credentials. Designed first as a SEMA-oriented racing car, it sports a unique touch-screen radio head unit and a custom gauge cluster. Once nearly destroyed in a towing accident, the car has been restored to its show-stopping glory.
