Try the pintosopher at jbk0856@sbcglobal.net He has a vast Pinto picture collection and I'm sure he would be interested if he receives credit for the use of the pictures.
Its better to be a has-been, than a never was.

 Thanks Dick, that's much appreciated I will follow it up. I should add that the book covers Mustang II, so anyone with a clean example of a Mustang II is also welcome. The book covers small Fords of 1960-1980. Marc :)

If you look back at the original post in this thread, it is more than three years old.  I would suspect that whatever photos tlake needed, he has acquired.

Dwayne...

Duh! I totally overlooked the date of the original post! As you know, I am new around here! Would you know if he has ever published such a book?

Thanks and Happy Motoring,
Dan

The original poster was Marc Cranswick and yes, the book was published in March of 2019.  It is entitled Ford Mustang II & Pinto 1970 to 1980.  It is still available on Amazon (I just checked) for approximately $25.  It would make a terrific holiday gift to yourself!

Thanks for the tip! I found it on Amazon and ordered it as a Christmas gift (wink-wink)! I can see my wife's eyes 👀 rolling once it arrives! Chuckling...

Is the author a member of our club still?

He's still a member but has never been very active - I'm guessing he joined primarily to see if he could round up pictures for his book with no other real interest, but I don't know for sure.  The last time he was logged in was in June of this year.

I suspect your wife will understand your gift perfectly.
