Ford's Mustang, launched on April 17, 1964, became the "Official Car of the Baby Boom". It was a fortuitous accident of timing and a brilliant result of product planning. This sleek, stylish automobile launched the "Pony Car" genre with a staggering 417,000 sales in its first year.
Through 40 years of tough competition from Chrysler and General Motors, the Mustang has survived and outlasted them all - 2003 marked the 100th Anniversary of Ford Motor Company, and 2004 was the 40th Anniversary of the Mustang. Dozens of interviews bring insight to the 40-year-old story, the on-going legend, and the Mustang's future.
Filled with exciting, brand-new photography of significant Mustang production models from the first 1964-1/2s to the new 2005 concept GT and Convertible. This book includes startling action photography and interviews with designers, engineers, product planners and racers who made the Mustang the legend it is today.
