Coupe

Hatchback

The 1977 Mustang II introduced a new set of paint colors, a much lighter simulated interior wood grain color, and more efficient and lower emission 4-cylinder and V6 engines that lost some power. The front grille on all sports models was blacked out, and the horizontal lines of the coupe grille were emphasized by receding the vertical slats. This was the first year of the T-roof option available on the hatchback, as well as a flip-up removable sunroof, simulated wire wheel covers, and painted cast aluminum spoke wheels. The Cobra II option package increased $220 to $535 with two new color combinations of white with red accent stripes or white with green stripes. A Rallye Appearance package replaced the Stallion option and included several gold accents such as stripes, moldings, tail lamp moldings, and stripes in the bumper rub strips.

Engine Data (compare years, see more 1977 performance information)

Gross Horsepower was measured using a blueprinted test engine running on a stand without accessories, mufflers, or emissions control devices. In 1971-2 automakers began to specify power in terms of SAE Net Horsepower (as defined by standard J1349). Net Horsepower is measured with the engine in "as-installed trim", with all accessories and standard intake and exhaust systems. This was done to reduce the advertised power for insurance rates and to account for different approaches to emission reduction equipment.
