Thank You for your interest in my new book: "Mustang GT/CS Recognition Guide and Owner's Manual". This dedicated book project took three years of compiling information, interviews, photos and diagrams to create this one-of-a-kind Mustang book for Mustang owners and enthusiasts!!
Due to the great popularity of the 1989 edition of this book on the Internet, after 25 years, I decided to offer a newly-revised hardbound edition. Information and photos from both the 1989, and 1996 GT/CS books were combined, with all-new research and never-before-seen photos. This is one of the most comprehensive Mustangs books ever written and published!
The driving force behind this book was the continued support, interest and
pride of ownership from the members of the GT/CS Registry since 1985. This
unique Ford Mustang, which was conceived, built and marketed exclusively for California in 1968 continues to have a strong following. This continued enthusiasm inspired Ford to produce the 2007-2009, and 2011 GT/CS. A unique feature of this book is its documentation of how 1960s California car culture influenced Ford executives in Dearborn to engineer and produce this customized limited-edition Mustang.
This is a self-published book by writer-publisher-enthusiast Paul M. Newitt.
It is also a Ford-licensed item. Paul has been the owner of a 1968 390 "S"
code Mustang GT/CS for 36 years.
Thank you!! Paul M. Newitt,
Mustang GT/CS Registrar.
