DESCRIPTION:
Celebrate the 50th Anniversary of America's premier performance car!From the original Shelby Mustang GT350 to today's 1,000 horsepower GT500, Carroll Shelby, Shelby American, and the Ford Motor Company have defined high-performance with their Shelby Mustangs. No Mustang fan will want to miss it.. Created in cooperation with the Carroll Hall Shelby Trust and officially licensed by Carroll Shelby Licensing, Inc., Shelby Mustang Fifty Years is lavishly illustrated with rare, historic photography and modern color images to chronicle the story of these amazing cars, from the initial collaboration with Ford to today's record-setting high-tech muscle cars.The foreword and tribute to Carroll Shelby by the "Father of the Mustang" Lee Iacocca rounds out this love note to America's premier performance car. Then an odd thing happened: people began to realize the classic nature of the car almost as soon as Shelby stopped building them. After a much-too-long hiatus, in 2006 Carroll Shelby was back with Ford and production of new Shelby Mustangs began for the first time in 36 years. Today, Shelby Mustangs of all eras remain at the top of almost every gearhead's list and with good reason-they are America's premier do-it-all pony car.Shelby Mustang Fifty Years is a celebration of these mag

"Colin Comer has done it again! What his last spectacular book Shelby Cobra 50 Years was to the Texan's snakes his new Shelby Mustang Fifty Years is to Shelby's Mustangs. Somehow Colin seems to come up with new, unseen historic photography as well as the latest images of fantastic perfect restorations, like those of the first production and racing versions of the GT350 Shelby Mustang 5S003 and 5R002. It's all here, history, passion, racing and absolute perfection in the form of Concours level photography. Colin's latest also provides great insight into the background and development of the whole Mustang project at Shelby American with the project's leader, Chuck Cantwell, as well as commentary from those who assisted in making these great cars. An exceptional and highly recommended book!" - Peter Brock. It is the perfect addition to any Shelby or Mustang enthusiasts library
