These Ford Mustang II catalogs from 1977 are awesome. It's fun to check out all the options that you could order at the time. Shag carpet and plaid seats! Groovy!

I bought this map of Virginia from 1977 to keep in the glove compartment. It adds to the time capsule feel. I also keep a 1977 penny in the center console (for luck!).
I keep an owners manual in the glove box too. One came with the car, but I also found this awesome dealer envelope and warranty pamphlet on Ebay that would have been given to the new car owner to complete the package.
I was lucky enough to score a complete set of Ford shop manuals from 1977 and I've bought several Mustang II repair guides too. [sorry some are upside down in this pic]
More Ford catalogs and manuals from 1977. It's fun to take a look back at the other cars available at the time like the Granada, LTD, Pinto and Fairmont.
A Mustang II key fob I found!
This 8-track came with Ford cars equipped with 8-track players. Since I have an 8-track player I thought it would be a cool item to add to my collection. There was a different tape for each year, so I had to research the one that was available for 77 to get the right one.
It's still wrapped in plastic so I haven't played it, but it includes music from various artists including Perry Como, Chet Atkins and Henry Mancini.
While parts hunting I'm always on the lookout for vintage and new Mustang II accessories. I've found patches and pins, old advertisements, and other fun stuff. It's almost like going back in time looking at some of it.
