I think they may be back in business. Your best bet is to try to reach them in Florida.

My EM uses a '78 Mustang II suspension in the front. Lots of parts and upgrades available. My kit was purchased in '87

Hope this helps.

Hi Scott,

Early E-M frames used the stock Ford crossmember out of the Mustang II. I don't know when they made the change, but later frames used a much cleaner custom crossmember with the Mustang II geometry. One thing to watch out for is the steering shaft on the early frames. It is a custon short version of the Ford part. My frame is the early style and it came with the stock stamped control arms. I have since changed to narrowed tubular arms so that the wheels would fit under the fenders, and I've got a set of Carrera coilovers on my Christmas list

......

Pick up a copy of "Hot Rodder" magazine and you will find more upgrade parts for the MII than you will ever need!

Good Luck,
Jon

Got a letter from my buddy Brett over there this past week indicating some plans for their comeback. I have some contact information if you are still interested. I also have the manuals that cover all 3 suspensions they offered: Vette, Jag and Mustang. I went with the Vette and swapped in some coil-overs. At some point, I heard of some clearance issues with the BB engines and with this monster I didn't want to take chances. Also had a 9 quart Aviaid road race pan made for the 528 to save about an inch under there.

Anyway, I hope they come back... as you can see I'm missing an important part of my car:

Hope all is well with you guys in the club, I'm sure I'll make it to a meeting soon.

I think they are close to re-opening the doors. There is some info on the other forum - but it's down at the moment for maintance and upgrades. Drop by there and do a search. There is an event soon at which 6 manufacturers will be present and it's hoped that E-M will be the seventh with their new generation car - if they get it ready in time.

Hope this helps

Hey Mark,

You're probably aware of this already, but Fred Gimbel at Autovision can most likely fix you up with a body and any other E-M parts you require

larryar's message above gives the contact info.

Regards,

Tom

Didn't BT Snake have an EM with a MIDSTATES body? You could contact Bob Kallio about that. If your in a hurry to get a body. Hope to see you at a meeting soon. I think we have more Non ford motors then any other club out there!
