Riassunto

The 1950s were a decade when auto mania was at its zenith and Ford Motor Company, led by young Henry Ford II, was in a fierce competition to beat Chevrolet in the sales race. Out of this rivalry came such automobile legends as the beautiful new Ford, Mercury, and Lincoln convertibles; the youthful Hardtop Victorias; the "glass top" Skyliners and Sun Valleys; the sporty two-seat Thunderbirds; the stunning Continental Mark IIs; and such sensations as the Retractable Hardtops and Rancheros. In FORD'¬?S GOLDEN FIFTIES, Ford historian Lorin Sorensen takes you back to the Golden Fifties with actual publicity photos and press releases that introduced some of the most desirable and unforgettable Ford cars of all time. A year-by-year celebration of the Fords of the 1950s, each complete with original publicity photographs and press releases.Includes more than 225 black-and-white and color photographs.A fabulous book for car buffs, history fans, and designers.
