The Mustang is an automotive icon with more than two million cars built between 1964-1973. Mustangs, such as the Shelby GT350 and GT500, Mach 1 428 Cobra Jet and Boss 302 and 429 ruled the street, but many thousands of common six cylinder and small V-8 Mustangs hit the highways and byways as well. These 40 plus year-old cars use antiquated equipment that includes drum brakes, breaker point ignition systems, and 14-inch skinny steel wheels. The OEM running gear is obsolete by today's standards and all of these Mustangs can transform into high-performance street machines that can compete with late-model Mustangs.
While some owners choose to preserve their Mustangs through an original restoration, other owners have transformed their Mustangs into true driving machines by installing aftermarket suspension, steering, and driveline technology. Many owners have performed bolt-on upgrades that don't affect originality, while other owners have completed more extensive projects that modify and seriously upgrade these cars. In this book, readers are shown how to install the most popular products and complete the best projects in an informative step-by-step format. Projects include installing a crate engine, big high-performance brake kits, coil-over shocks, tubular A-arms, multi-link rear suspension and so many other projects that increase performance by leaps and bounds.
From mild to wild, the projects presented in this book cover every component group of the car, including engine, transmission, rear differential, front suspension, rear suspension, steering, chassis, electrics, interior, tires and wheels and more. By completing the sum of these projects, the reader can build a high-performance street car as well as a track car. In no other book will you find a collection of how-to projects to comprehensively transform the classic Mustang into a car that performs with the best on the road today.
