Nope.

"...and no person who has held the office of President, or acted as President, for more than two years of a term to which some other person was elected President shall be elected to the office of the President more than once."

Okay. However, if Gerald Ford were to resign on August 7, 1976, he would be permitted to run for re-election in 1980 assuming he wins in 1976?

Yes, that would in fact be permissible.
