I really hate to do this because nobody likes to see sites plastered with all sorts of ads but the fact of the matter is that it takes a considerable amount of  time to build a website that does more than just display some text, pictures and play a little tune.  It took me hundreds of hours to get the registry up and running and about the same for the reproduction part ratings.  Besides begging for contributions just about the only way I can think of to raise a few bucks for my efforts is to put up some ads.

Here's the nice part though.  I don't want to start cramming all sorts of irrelevant stuff in every nook and cranny of the site in the hopes of earning a few cents.  All of the ads will be put on this page unless I deem that it would serve the visitors more to have an ad on the page their looking at.  An example of this is the reproduction parts page where it's probably better to have the links to the rated vendors readily available.  In addition, I'll only put up links to items/places I'm familiar with.  The objective is to prevent this from becoming just a bunch of obtrusive links and more of an informative page.

This is a good book.  Lots of pictures and great information.  If you want to rebuild your engine yourself and don't know how or you're afraid of messing something up then you'll find this book very helpful.

This book tries to cover alot of ground in a limited space.  Any of the  topics covered here probably would have to be a book in itself to do it right, not to mention that this book spreads itself even thinner by covering five model years each with three body styles.

There is some good information though, especially on rebuilding the brakes and power steering.  There's other good info too but you'll probably need supplemental info if you plan on doing a complete restoration on your car.

I got this book as a gift and enjoyed it as such.  It's pretty good but I don't think anyone can cover a full restoration in 170 pages.


Mustang & Ford Small Block V8, 1962-1969: Volumes 1 & 2 Combined
This is a great book.  It tracks even the smallest part changes in these engines over the years.  Tons of pictures and information.  This is a big help trying to determine if a part is the one you need at swap meets or when viewing blurry eBay pictures.  The Amazon review states it took the author 17 years to compile the info for the book and I believe it.  It's a bit pricey but worth it especially if there are alot of non-original parts in your engine bay or you plan on doing more than one restoration.

I guess Amazon didn't have a picture so they put up a generic image.  You can click the link above or the picture to the right to get the Amazon page for this book.

   

The products Eastwood sell are better than what's out there.  The prices are a bit high but after dealing with the not-so-good stuff from other sources you'll eventually buy an Eastwood product when you want to get the job done right.

Maybe you've been wondering why the prices of 67/68 Fastbacks have risen out of the reach of many hobbyists or perhaps you just want to see a movie that features a Mustang in a prominent way.  Either way you might want to check these out.  The first Gone In Sixty Seconds is the original from 1974.  The second one is the 2000 remake with Nicholas Cage.

Just so I make myself perfectly clear.  I will get paid a small amount if somebody buys something after clicking on the links above.  If you checked them out and decide to come back later to make a purchase please re-enter the site by coming through the link here.  That way I'll get my incentive to make additional pages for this site.  Thanks.
