Description
By: William Burt .
Ford has played an integral part in the NASCAR story since the beginning — in fact, if you look at the statistics, you could say Ford has dominated, winning more than 1/4 of the races it has entered since 1949. That's not a bad record.
In recent years, Ford's weapon of choice in the stock car arena has been the Ford Taurus — a sleek, two- door, rear-wheel-drive derivative of the company's popular four-door sedan. With drivers like Mark Martin, Dale Jarrett, Matt Kenseth, Brett Bodine, Ricky Rudd and many others, the Taurus has been a successful and popular stock car since it hit the tracks in 1998 as the Thunderbird's replacement.
In this book, author William Burt takes you inside the development and deployment of a NASCAR Ford Taurus. You'll see the car's entire history, from the time the first frame tubes are laid to when the car makes its first laps on race day. In between, you get 300 photos (more than 250 in color) of every detail in the Taurus, from chassis and suspension parts to body building, interiors, and engine bays.
Whether you're a die-hard NASCAR fan, a model builder, or a Ford fanatic — if you want to know what makes your favorite Ford racecar tick, this book is an invaluable reference.
