Designed for the Mustang restorer and model car builder alike, this book gives vintage Mustang enthusiasts the detailed information and Illustrations they need to build highly accurate models or restored full-size cars. Text covers what finishes, materials, and parts were correct for each year, with information on variations and options. Full-color photos show detailed views of the car's body and trim, chassis and undercarriage, drivetrain and engine bay, and interior. Straight profile and front and rear views are printed to scale to allow enthusiasts to accurately place decals, stripes, and trim pieces. Sidebars cover production numbers, performance figures, and paint, trim, and interiorcodes and colors. Most vintage Mustangs have been modified heavily over the last 40 years.

This review is from: Ford Mustang 1964 1/2 to 1973: Originality Guide for Restorers and Scale Builders (Musclecar Tech) (Paperback)
Save your money there are better books out there on old Mustangs that actually give some detail and pictures of Mechanical stuff. This book focuses on the exterior body, trim, and interior and for the most part ignores every thing else. For under $25, I could have got all of the information provided in this book and more.

I am mostly interested in the 71-73 models so I only speak here about that section of the book. I was expecting an "originality guide" and I feel this book could have been better. Originality begins with the cars that are being photographed. When I see cars that are poorly assembled, have after market parts, pitted chrome, rusted parts and downright incorrect striping schemes I lose confidence in the book. There are better cars out there that could have been used. I would have preferred paying more for a higher quality book. On the plus side, this book does have a good year-by-year description of options and more interior photos than is usually found in other books.
