A special thanks goes to David Osborn for agreeing to sponsor Mustangsandmore.com for the third year in a row!Good people like David help pay the bills that keep M&M online and helping Mustang and Ford lovers. If you don't have Osborn manuals for your project you need them! When you are taking something apart, knowing what's on the inside is 95% of the battle. David's father, the late Jim Osborn, took great pains to search the Ford archives for these assembly diagrams that he put together as assembly manuals. It's the same info the people that built your car used when it was being built. It gives you a cool sense of history just looking at the diagrams and reading the notes. They also have decals, owners manual, stripe kits, fact books, and lots of other cool stuff. Do yourself a favor and get a catalog and check it out! ------------------ '70 Mustang Mach 1 - '72 Mustang Sprint - '94 F-150 Please remember our sponsors, Mustangs Plus, NPD, Osborn Reproductions, MyFordPerformance.com, and FordRamAir.com

Steve is right on the money. If you don't have the Osborne Manuals, you don't know what you are missing. The manuals are very detailed and accurate. We use our all the time and couldn't do with out them. Try them and you won't use any other manuals.

I certainly mean no harm in saying this but I know for myself that I would have to be an absolute idiot for trying to reassemble my car without the Osborn manuals. I purchased EVERY one of them and they have solved many problems and have answered countless questions I have had. I endorse them to EVERYONE who is considering a Mustang project.

I'll ditto that comment! They are a great help in understanding just how my car was originally put together, and allows me to correct/change some of the cobbled-up patches that have been done over the years before I got it.
THANK YOU FOR YOUR CONTINUED SUPPORT OF M&M, MR. OSBORN!!! Ryan

I have the original 68 Mustang shop manual. Now if the Osborn has a detailed pic and disassembly of the windshield and backlight mouldings I will buy one.
