Eric Lipper's 1978 Ford Mustang II King Cobra

Eric Lipper of Houston, who has a trio of classic Shelby Mustangs in his personal fleet as well as a Ford GT, proudly tells us about the latest addition to his collection -- a mint 1978 Ford Mustang II King Cobra.

Here’s his Mustang Story:

“Hi, my name is Eric Lipper. I own a 1966 Shelby GT350, a 1967 Shelby GT500, plus a 1969 Shelby and a 2005 Ford GT …

“Today, I own a 1978 Mustang II King Cobra with 36,000 original miles, T-tops, AM/FM and a 4-speed. It is bone stock, with original paint, interior and decals, and is even still riding on its original Firestone tires when I take it to the shows (otherwise, of course I drive it on different tires). I even fabricated a fake 1978 Motorcraft battery while on display at the car shows.”
