CARS

   In the ’50s, Detroit built cars with style in mind . . . but as the ’60s arrived, a younger group of car buyers had another thing in mind: performance! Ford Motor Company met that demand with some of the fastest and most powerful cars on the street. In this book, John Smith covers the entire Ford performance story in the ’60s – and not just Mustangs and Cobras, but Galaxies, Torinos, Falcons, Fairlanes, Shelbys, Mavericks, and every other Ford that got extra horsepower stuffed under its hood in this fast-moving decade. Models are covered year by year, from the Supercharged T-birds of 1957 to the last gasp of the muscle car era in 1973, and everything in between. Performance engines and stats are listed for each year, and an informative appendix includes information on deciphering VIN tags and parts codes.
John Smith traces his long-standing devotion to Fords to a letter he received from the Ford Motor Company as part of a third-grade writing assignment, and to say that he is a Fordnatic is an understatement. Combining a mechanical education and self-developed writing skills, Smith is a contributing author to several enthusiast magazines, is the former photographer of “Super Ford Magazine” and the Winston Cup reporter for “Ford Enthusiast” Magazine. Between his consulting and photography business, John finds time for his current project: the restoration of a 1966 Ford Galaxie 500 7-Litre.
