Drawing on extensive restoration experience, the author explains the strengths, weaknesses and quirks of the first-generation Mustang, highlighting issues to watch for and opportunities to look out for.
Covering model variations, popular upgrades, ownership considerations, and the realities of today's market, the book provides everything you need to assess a potential purchase with confidence. From paperwork and specifications to bodywork, trim, and engine condition, each section helps you quickly identify red flags and recognise a genuinely promising car. Whether you're seeking a show-ready example, a dependable driver or a rewarding restoration project, this guide is your essential companion.
Matt Cook is an experienced IT, networking and electronics engineer whose passion for cars began early, with the Mustang always at the centre. After restoring Minis and MGBs, he imported his first Mustang - a 1968 Fastback that demanded a full, ground-up restoration. Taking on the challenge himself, Matt rebuilt much of the car, including its small-block V8, gaining deep practical knowledge along the way.
Now a recognised figure in his local Mustang community, he supports fellow enthusiasts with advice, technical help and restoration insights. He has written for club magazines and websites, and is also the author of Veloce's Buyer's Guide to the fifth-generation S197 Mustang.
