Ford Mustang Summary

Ford Mustang: 3rd generation: 1979-1993; inc Mercury Capri: 1979-1986 by Dave Smith

Ford and Mercury sold well over 2.5 million of their fantastic 'Fox-body' Mustang and Capri sports coupes, hatches and convertibles over a 15-year lifespan, but with the youngest among them currently approaching their 30th birthday, the years will have taken their toll. With Foxes now taking their place among their predecessors in the classic Mustang pantheon, and prices on the rise, this is the time to buy. They've passed through their 'cheap clunker' phase, and this book looks at the Fox Mustang/Capri for the 21st century. Whether you're searching for a daily driver or a cosseted investment; a 'survivor' or a highly-modified custom; a cruiser or a drag-strip warrior, this book looks at the common issues and rust spots, the most desirable years, specifications and options, and how to find, buy, maintain and enjoy the right Fox for you. Author Dave Smith is a motoring journalist and Fox owner, builder and enthusiast, and with help from other enthusiasts and experts, has put together a pocket guide that will be indispensable for the prospective Fox buyer!

About Dave Smith

Dave was born near Plymouth, and showed a passion for cars since before he could walk or talk. Almost 50 years later, that passion has never left him. After a series of dead-end jobs whose wages barely funded the maintenance and repair of his fleet of rusty old relics, Dave fell into automotive journalism at the turn of the century, and worked for Classic American and American Car magazines before finally landing at Street Machine magazine. He has spent most of his life in the English West Midlands, either behind a Mac keyboard, beside a drag strip or on or under one of the current crop of rusty old relics.
