Automotive Books

I like the monster truck book because I like cars and trucks. I like the details in the pictures and the words in this book. I would read this book over and over again....

My son brought this home from his school library. It's simple language and attention to detail brought me to Amazon.com to buy it for my son's at home collection. I loved this book & he loved it too.....

Where did the V-twin engine design come from?
What is the development story behind the SP fairings?
Many questions are answered, both for the 'old-hand' and new Guzzi enthusiast alike.
Mick gives a personal review of each model, it's foibles & idiosyncracies. An entertaining & enjoyable read!
I'm glad I bought it!

Oooooh the sound of a Guzzi could never be encapsulated onapage but Mick gives a really good go at caputuring the sprit of thislumbering monster of a marque. It is great to see that he not only incldes lots of great information but some personal histories of some Guzziologists. IT makes it all so much more relevant when you read the book. Mick writes a lot of really good books and this is one of them.

A source of accurate info and objective guidance that is really helpful in selecting the right bike. Worth the few bucks to avoid making a costly mistake.

Extremely information-packed buyers' guide for those pondering the purchase of a motorcycle -- something more buyers need to do.

This book was beyond what I expected. Excellent work. I would recommend to all levels of riders...

For a long time I contemplated purchasing a bike (my dream Harley) and getting on the road, but really felt that I was much too inexperienced and unknowledgeable. So, I bought this book to see if it may sway me in one direction or the other (before I went out and spent a huge chunk of change on a bike that I could possibly lay down in the first few minutes). After reading this book I knew what I needed EXACTLY - it gave me complete insider knowledge - the basics--on anything and everything from helmet info to what gear is needed from head to toe. Not only did I get a better understanding of what gear I needed, but where to buy it and how to prioritize safety (always at number one). I took the recommended course and practiced, practiced, practiced in a parking lot near my house. I feel like this book gave me what I needed to start riding. It was easy and simple and not some big complicated wordy book- it was completely real. The author seems to just be another guy on the road- very down to earth and real-he gives it to you like it is- very honest-he doesn't "fluff" anything. It gave me what I needed and that was that. I wouldn't have started riding without this book. I highly recommend this for anybody interesting in the basics of riding.

Mustang lovers,this book is a gem! If you're passionate about mustangs then this book is for you.Plenty of color photos throughout of many examples of each year models and shows some rare models like 1969 Shelby de Mexico notchbacks.This book will please the fussiest of book collector and Mustang lovers.

A first glance, its just another Mustang book. Big woopee, there's dozens of them. But as you open it and page through it, you begin to realize this is a book of another breed. It revs. up in the beginning with pre-Mustang history, warms to performance with classic stang history, and tops it off with the 94-95' Mustangs. It is sooo complete that it contains both the original concept Mustang from 1960 and the Mach III from 1992, which never saw production. The best of the best(book), written about the best automotive company's (Ford) best endeavor(Mustang).

lots and lots of very detailed photos. as a model car builder this book will be very helpful. as a matter of fact some other club members will be buying this book also. i highly recomend this book to all ford mustang lovers.

This is a superb book! Mustang lovers will love this book.It covers the mustang in all forms of racing and the photographs,both b/w and colour are the best.This book is a must have for any Mustang owner or enthusiasts library.The one area of the mustang that gets mentioned in very few books now has a book soley devoted to it:"Mustang race cars" is another great book from "MBI Publishing company".

What a book! Its an all color book.Color photos of each year model,interior photos and detailed information make this one of the ultimate reference books on first generation Mustangs.

Covers all the GT's,GT/CS,1968 1/2 Cobra Jet,Mach1,Boss 302,Boss 429,Grande and Shelby mustangs.This book has got the lot.Its a softcover book and its very high quality and highly researched by these well known Mustang authors:Larry Dobbs,Donald Farr,Jerry Heasley and Rick Kopec.These guys know their mustangs and this book proves it.

I also recommend a similar book:
"Ford Mustang:1964-1/2 to 1973:Orginality guide for restorers and scale model builders".By Pat Covert.(A Musclecar Tech book.)

Ever wonder....

"What options were available for my year Mustang?"
"What options were included in the Mach 1 package for my 69/70/71/72/73?"
"What is the REAL difference between a 64 1/2 and a 65???"

The answers are contained in this book.

I've been restoring Mustangs since I was 19, back in 1989. This book is one of the first that I bought and has been with me ever since. I use it all the time, referencing ID codes, engine combos, options packages and a multitude of other details. This is one of the most comprehensive and accurate volumes that you will ever purchase. Personally, I'm on my third copy.

The book details year-to-year body and trim changes, interior and exterior options, powertrain combinations, paint/trim combinations, as well as a complete VIN # and Data Plate decoding matrix. It is written in a factual, yet easy to read manner that is not interjected with any form of opinion, slant or spin.

Since you are reading this online, I can assume that you may have been to some of the Mustang discussion forums on the Internet. The amount of incomplete, twisted and just plain wrong information that is tossed around by some of the posters is phenominal. If you have ever questioned the postings of another user, I heavily recommend you get this book.

Whether you already own, or are considering the purchase of a 64.5~73 Mustang, this book should be in your library. It can make the difference between a great purchase and a "What the heck did I buy?" purchase.......

Seriously, just buy this book..........

Excellent! You need this book if you buying a classic mustang

While having owned and restored several Mustangs, I have also owned all three editions of The Mustang Red Book. This book is a most valuable resource for anyone looking to buy a Mustang. It has an incredibly comprehensive listing of specifications, part numbers, options, and prices for each year, and is essential for cracking Mustang ID codes. You need this book!

This book briefly mentions the first generation mustangs before going into great detail on later generation mustangs.Plenty of black & white and colour photos throughout and a detailed text will please lovers of these mustangs.

This book is of high standard that the author is known for and he knows his mustangs.

I own over 20 Mustang books and can honestly say this is one of the best out there. If you are interested in the SN-95 Mustang this book is for you! The majority of this book is about the development and introduction of the SN-95. It has great color photos and cutaway drawings. It also contains great information and pictures of earlier models. This book will impress you and is a steal at the current price.

Book was very informative. Pictures are great!!! My husband was very pleased and he's a Mustang pro and fan!!!

This is a good size book covering various model mustangs from 1964 1/2 onwards.Plenty of interesting text and beautiful colour photos throughout the book make this an ideal for all mustang owners and enthusiuasts.

Printed on high quality gloss paper and in a hardbound book make this a great book to add to your collection.For the price alone its a bargain worth having.
