From the Publisher: Bruce Caldwell and the editors of Hot Rod have earned an enviable reputation ove the years for publishing clear, informative, technical articles covering automotive upkeep, repair and restoration. Among these fine pieces have been many on Mustangs, a car they greatly admire. They were amongst the first to recognize thay the early Mustangs were modern classics and fulfilled their readers needs by writing a series of stories that helped them maintain and improve their vehicles. Armed with their easy-to-follow picture sequences and comprehensive instructions many a timid owner has been encouraged to tune his 289 or improve the handling of his 350GT. Unfortunately todays owners of Mustangs find it almost impossible to locate these early articles and with this in mind we have collected what we think are the most useful and valuable of the series and combined them into a book.
