Here's the next book I want to buy: Mustang Forty Years, by Randy Leffingwell and David Newhardt. I've seen it at book stores and it's huge. In bookstores it sells for $50, we have it in the M&M Bookstore for $33.http://www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/tg/detail/-/0760315973/stevelarivierepe/104-1006537-2601505 ------------------ '70 Mustang Mach 1 351C 4V/FMX/3.25 Open '70 Mustang Convertible 250 I6/3 speed/2.79 Open '72 Mustang Sprint Hardtop 351C 4V/FMX/4.30 Trac Loc '94 F-150 XL 5.8L/E4OD/3.55 Limited Slip

The book is ok, but not quite as good as I had hoped. In the stores it was shrink wrapped, so I wasn't able to thumb through it. It has huge and beautiful pictures, but a full page picture of a wheel center cap isn't as helpful as smaller pictures of all the available caps would be. Plus the info is a little skimpy on the '69-'70 years, with not much about the Mach 1, yet they devote several pages on the Twister.I'm actually glad I bought the used version instead of new. I paid $18 instead of the $33 and the book only has a slight {1/4"}dent at the top of the front cover and a magic marker mark at the bottom of the binding, other than that, it's brand new. I'd recommend buying used when you can, especially on the pricier hardcovers. You get more bang for your buck for sure. ------------------ '70 Mustang Mach 1 351C 4V/FMX/3.25 Open '70 Mustang Convertible 250 I6/3 speed/2.79 Open '72 Mustang Sprint Hardtop 351C 4V/FMX/4.30 Trac Loc '94 F-150 XL 5.8L/E4OD/3.55 Limited Slip
