Product Description

A racing journalist and historian covers Ford's glory years--the total domination of world motorsports from 1962 to 1970. In 1962, when he was 35, it was Lee Iacocca's dream for Ford to dominate world motorsports. From 1962 through 1970, Ford launched a massive assault on every major venue of motorsport in the world--with unparalleled success. From Formula 1 to Le Mans, NASCAR stock cars to the Indy 500, and from Trans-Am to NHRA drag racing--Ford eventually won championships in each venue.

Racing journalist and historian Alex Gabbard chronicles Ford's rise to world racing domination, taking us behind the scenes with the men responsible for designing, building, and driving the many racing machines that took the racing world by storm during this performance era. Hundreds of rare racing photos help readers relive the many victorious moments in what is considered to be Ford's most successful racing period, the era of "Total Performance."
