It had exciting cars, thrilling races, and most importantly, factory participation. Among the best high-performance cars and engines were those coming from Dearborn, Michigan. Ford Motor Company’s “Total Performance Years” saw a breakthrough as drag racing helped the younger, performance- and style-conscious consumer to begin receiving some recognition.Factory participation in drag racing pushed the envelope for high performance developments. Ford’s FE-series engine, Police Interceptor, GT 390, Single Overhead Cam, Cobra Jet, and Boss 429 are all covered in detail. See the cars and the drivers that made them famous – Dick Brannan’s Goldfinger, Bill Lawton’s Mystery Mustang, “Dyno Don” Nicholson’s Eliminator Comet, Gas Ronda’s stretched Mustang, Al Joenic’s Batcar, and more.Accomplished journalist and life-long Ford aficionado Charles Morris takes you back to the Total Performance Years through first-hand accounts as well as over 400 rare photographs. A drag racer since 1966, Morris has run cars in both Stock and Super Stock classes. He is currently the owner of the original Norristown Ford 1963 _ lightweight Galaxie and races the car in Nostalgia Super Stock as part of the 422 Motorsports Drag Racing Team. This book is a must read for all drag racing fans, not just Ford enthusiasts.
