How to Restore Your Mustang
1964-1/2-1973
is a hands-on how-to guide for restoring your first-generation Mustang.
Enthusiast owners are shown how to turn a Mustang in need of restoration into a
brilliant automotive jewel. While many previous restoration books have focused
on authenticity and mostly overlooked the actual procedures for restoring a
Mustang, this book breaks ground by detailing how to actually restore each major
component group – chassis/suspension, brakes, steering, body, interior, and
engine/drivetrain/differential. It provides all the relevant challenges,
expenses, drawbacks, and benefits a restorer will encounter, so the
owner/restorer can decide whether to do the restoration work on their own or
have it professionally done. The latest techniques and best restoration products
for each system are revealed and discussed. It also provides the considerations
for using replacement parts versus repairing the original parts. And it
specifies how to make sensible upgrades that improve safety, performance, and
convenience while not adversely affecting collector value. This book takes
restoration instruction to a whole new level by providing comprehensive and
insightful step-by-step instruction for many of the most important procedures of
a restoration.
With clear insightful color photography to accompany this how-to instruction,
any at-home mechanic can confidently restore a car and save a bundle of money in
the process.
