Offset body, 3/4 scale. Original frets and pickups. Missing a knob, some scratches and dings here and there, but it sounds great and looks awesome. Original case comes with it, although the latches don't lock. Must be sold by 7/25 and picked up that evening or before.

Sweet!  Hope you get it.  I've always wanted one of those, but need it like a hole in the head.  Love the way they feel/play/sound, though.

 Hope you get it Dennis! I have always wanted a Mustang, I regret passing on a GC Blowout  MIJ Mustang for $350 a while back. I did play the new Squire Mustang the other day, Black and Maple I was very impressed. I liked it better than a 70's 'Stang and not as much as a newer MIJ. Having said that $ 300 is a KILLER price, go, run strike while the iron is hot!

Hadn't heard from the guy so I assume it's sold by now. For that price it oughta be! I didn't even see it, Bobby (Hornisse) emailed me from Austin and told me about it.

Bummer!  Sounded like a great deal.  I've got all the parts for a mustang bass in the shop.   Gotta piece it together some time!

Funny, I emailed him yesterday afternoon as well.

It was bound to sell right away at that price. Too bad neither of you got it.

I was expecting one of these. =P

I don't think I've ever stared at a Mustang II photo that long before!

Padded dashes, dual headlights... wait, there's a car in that pic?

That's one car that seriously tempts me to sell my 1983 280ZX Turbo.  There are just enough Mustang GTs around to be affordable.

Dangit.

But.....what do I REALLY lust after?  A new Camaro in that incredible light-up-the-night Lime Green Metallic.  I guess it's called "Synergy Green".

keep your z car. it's not like mustang ll's are real mustangs...

Always loved the Zs.  I have a 76 (sorta on topic- but just missing the models  )

Here's a look.  Right now it's in the garage because it was running like crap and had a broken exhaust manifold stud.  I have the manifolds half off, and while I'm pulling the broken stud and re-installing the manifolds, I will pull the fuel injectors and have them tested to make sure they're working.  Mechanically it's still good at 126K miles.  I have a couple of very pesky electrical problems I've been playing with for more than a year. The most puzzling is that I can't get the interior blower motor to run for more than 30 seconds, and if it's over 80 degrees the fan won't run at all.  Strangest electrical problem I've ever seen, and I have tried replacement parts and quite a bit of testing.  I have had this car since 1990.
