Explore more than 500 special-edition Mustangs from 1964 through today and view their production numbers, key features, and photos of surviving cars.

Factory offerings, such as the 2001 Bullitt and SVT Cobras; regional promotions, such as the Twister Special; third-party tuners, such as Roush and Saleen; and factory race cars, such as the 1968 1/2 Cobra Jets and the 2000 Cobra-R, are included. You may find Mustangs in this book that you had no idea even existed!

When Ford rolled out the Mustang in April 1964, it was an instant hit. Even with its immense popularity it didn’t stop Ford Corporate, zone managers, and dealerships from taking it an extra step further. Just two short months later, the first special-edition Mustang debuted at the Indianapolis 500 tasked with pacing the race, and it’s been full throttle ever since.

Never has a volume this detailed and with this many model Mustangs been published. The authors have taken their decades of research and logged them into a single compilation. This book is sure to be a valued resource in your Mustang memorabilia collection!

About the Author

Jeffrey Klein got his first muscle car, a 1969 GTO, in college, and he and his uncle completely restored it. As a hobby, he worked with the admin of UltimateGTO.com, making it one of the most extensive websites dedicated to the GTO. Looking for another web project 10 years ago, he and his brother set up MustangAttitude.com, concentrating on his wife's favorite car, a 2005 Mustang.

Jonathan Klein set up some of the first web pages in 1995 for postcollege graduate research, which was recognized worldwide. When his brother approached him 10 years ago to start a Mustang web site, he had to get a Mustang. A new, black on black, 2008 Shelby 500 was the choice. Since then, documenting known special models and discovering new ones have been never-ending quests in keeping the website updated.
