Don Taylor & Tom Wilson Mustang Restoration Handbook HP books |
This is a link to info about the restauration book I got. It helped me a lot and I can recommend it. The Haynes book is helpful for general maintenance, but overall rather disappointing. (link) |
How to live with (and enjoy) your vintage Mustang on the street |
One of many good articles about improvement projects featured in Mustang Monthly. (link) |
Mustang Unlimited
|
Aside from my local Autozone and Advanced Auto Parts stores, I used the companies on the left for my part orders. Their prices differ sometimes; Mustang Unlimited seems to deliver the fastest (then again, they are the closest to me). CSRP supplies disc-brake conversion kits and they are great. Delivered in a few days, great installation manual and helpful people when you call. (links) |
