New Book: Kiwi Mustangs

Post by Steve Holmes »

Here is my latest book, and one of the many reasons I've not been on The Roaring Season much lately. Its called Kiwi Mustangs, and features 19 different New Zealand Mustang enthusiasts, their collections, automobilia etc. It also includes 4 historic NZ racing Mustangs: The Fleetwood Motors Mustang, Sidchrome Mustang, and PDL I and PDL II Mustangs.

There is also plenty of other stuff in here too. Its a hard cover book, just over 200 pages, and retails for only $39.99. So go buy a copy! Its available at all good retail book outlets.

Huge thanks to all the Roaring Season members who contributed photos for the historic race cars section. These are my favorite chapters of the book.

I got a few American mates that'll want this one Steve!! they've always been fascinated when I've been over there shipping these cars back. I remember one American guy asking a certain kiwi if mustangs were very big in NoZeeland, the reply was that they are the same size as the ones in the USA, LOL

I thought they would be smaller over here as everything is bigger in the goddam U. S. of A.

We're in the process of setting up an online shop for The Roaring Season, so should be able to sell copies of this book through the shop once its up and running.
