Author Description

For 28 years Ford fanatics have gathered at Knott's Berry Farm to celebrate the cars, trucks, and history of the Ford Motor Company. This year, through the efforts of the Ford Car Club Council, more than 2,100 Fords, Lincolns, and Mercurys were on display, from the Model T to the latest Mustang. This book serves as a historic overview, featuring the cars selected by the event to be showcased by the event's organizers providing a retrospective of the 110-year history of the Ford Motor Company. Two series of cars were singled out; the Model A celebrating its 85th birthday, and the mid-sized Torino, which was introduced 45 years ago. With so many cars and trucks on display, this is the first in what is planned to be a series of four books covering this year's Fabulous Fords Forever! Next up will be a volume featuring classic full-sized, post-war Fords from 1949 to 1972, followed by with a book covering many of the early Mustangs on display, and concluding with an edition that will feature a cross section of all the Fords on display this year at Knott's Berry Farm. With the introduction of an all-new Mustang next spring, the 2014 Fabulous Fords Forever! show will certainly mark the 50th anniversary of the launch of Ford's trend-setting Pony Car.
