The Complete Book of Mustang: Every Model Since 1964-1/2 (Complete Book Series)
Paperback – December 24, 2010
Description
From Booklist The year 1964 saw the introduction of an �entirely new brand of automobile,� the ever-popular Mustang, from the Ford Motor Corporation, which quickly achieved the rank of living legend. The Mustang�s more than 40 years of continuous production is followed here in a splendid oversize book (updated from its original 2007 publication) appearing in cooperation with Ford and drawing on photos from the corporate archives. And the photos are ample indeed! Together with the detailed text�the main narrative is augmented by frequent sidebars�the result is a year-by-year (from model year 1964 to model year 2011) profile of Mustang in all its variants, from show cars to pace cars to prototypes to, of course, regular production models. The reader-enthusiast learns all about body styles, engine features and functions, and commercial reception, but the underlying strength of the Pony Car was always its mass appeal. --Brad Hooper About the Author Mike Mueller has worked as a freelance automotive photojournalist since 1991.
