The photos in this edition are black and white.The styling of Ford's muscle and pony cars of the 1960s and 1970s is amazing, but their performance in some areas just isn't up to date. Don't subject your classic Ford to a life of garage time, trailer rides, outdated factory- original performance, and the occasional Sunday cruise - build it to run hard. He even c
