MUSTANG: Forty Years
(Published in 2004)
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 began 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. Dozens of interviews bring insight to the 40-year-old story, and the on-going legend, and the Mustang’s future. 2003 marks the 100th Anniversary of the Ford Motor Company, and 2004 will be the 40th anniversary of the Mustang. Leffingwell collaborated with friend and brilliant automotive photographer David Newhard to fill this book with startling action photography and exciting beauty shots of every significant Mustang production model from the first 1964-_s to the new 2005 concept GT and Convertible.
