Would love to see a full series on this like the Challenger.

I know its an inanimate object. I know it has no form of consciousness or existences. But after seeing an abandoned car like this come back to life, I just got this crazy feeling deep down its saying "Thank you." I just think some old cars deserve a second chance and finds like this make me wanna go out and work on one.

Anyone else root for her to make it into the garage then cheer when she roared to life? It was like she was tired and worn out but decided, "Damnit-I want to live!" I love this car already. Also totally agree you should name her Farrah.

You're missing the AC compressor. It's a Florida car. It was probably parked because the AC went out.

This old girl wants to exercise her horses again! She found the right owner! Looking forward to this new series! 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻

I love that you always teeter on the border of cynical sarcasm, and excited optimism

I'm MOPAR, but my daddy made sure I was taught to appreciate muscle cars, semi's, tractors, and motorcycles. I knew the parts of a slant 6 (Dart) when I was 5 yrs old. He was overhauling it. He even laid them out on a sheet. I was next to him under several chassis's well into my 20s and helped overhaul a motorcycle engine. My point is -- that while I'm now 57 (and obviously a Daddy's girl), I still have a passion for seeing these great classics come to life. Way to go!

I have a 1978 King Cobra Mustang II and I love the thing, and never plan on getting rid of it. You can bet you wont see another when you go to a car show!!

Hello, I am writing from Turkey, I do not understand your language, but I like your videos and watch them. I love classic American vehicles.

[@TimberWolf429]

Considering that the Mustang 2 eventually evolved into the much loved Fox Body Mustang. This poor little gem should definitely be saved from the grave, she has good bones, and the will to live, so she should definitely be given that chance

[@earnestmerida]

My uncle was a car dealer back in the day, had one of these (red with a big snake on the hood) that I absolutely loved! I was 14 at the time, and not prepared to own a car. But I wanted it.

[@mattwiedenman3268]

I realize I'm not the first person to point this out...after all, I agree...you really should restore this little dude. I'm really hoping to see a series on the restoration of this car. It deserves it.

As someone who certainly appreciates older vehicles like classic Mustangs, I applaud you for your focused dedication in trying to bring this car back to life. Many years ago I took an auto body class at a community college so I could take the best of a long-ignored 1973 F350 dumptruck and a working 1974 F150 pickup and meld them into a better-looking and better-working dumptruck. The college provided me with the tools, heavy lift for the cab, help from classmates (sometimes a liability) and expert guidance from an experienced instructor that I needed. That's where I personally learned how much work is involved in a restoration project. One suggestion for you is to use a respirator mask when working with rusty, dirty projects that release small-particulate matter that tends to be inhaled -- because of the damage it can cause to your lungs, which often doesn't show up until years later. Enjoy your work and take care.

When I met my wife in 1982 ( still married to her ) , she was driving a 1976 Two Door White Mustang ll with a 4 Banger in it…All Red Interior and we drown to Elizabethan Tennessee to spend our Honeymoon in the Mountains at a Chalet …Her little car was so beautiful !!

[@mikerichardson8983]

I had a 77 cobra 2 in high school in the 80s. White with red stripes, 302 v8 with 4 barrel 4 speed in floor. It would run like a bat out of hell. Sold it in the late 90s to a couple that completely restored it. It's a show car now.

[@Hobodeluxe960]

Please fix this one up. She could be a great restoration for your channel.

[@jonoffensend7519]

This car really deserves a new life, you really don’t see them much, especially the cobras. They are a nice looking car, at least they don’t look like a Toyota, Honda or any number of new cars!👍👍👍

[@craigevens7319]

This brings back so many memories for me.
