I had a friend in high school that had a '78 Mustang II. Admittedly it wasn't the prettiest thing but somehow Ford had jammed a 302 block in that compartment. HP to lbs that had to be one of the most powerful cars (at that time) I had ever ridden in. Probably came the closest (at that time) to giving me the experience of what it was like to ride in an AC Cobra. 0-60 in under 5.5 and geared for a top end of 130 or so

Yes it was fast and fun, but it was a poorly built 70's rust bucket. Most of them (not sure what engine) required a new camshaft at 50,000 miles which was about a $500 repair at the time.
