This is the first book I've bought in years and I'm so glad I did. I keep reading more, feeling like I've got secret information that nobody should know about. Just tonight I read about how the Alfa V6 engine was slated to go in the Scorpio.

Special Guest - Meet Steve Saxty at the Carlisle Ford Nationals
Author and Industry Expert Hosting Seminars and More in 2019
After a career spanning thirty years in the car industry - starting out at Ford - and encompassing Mazda, Porsche GB sales and then consulting for the likes of Rolls-Royce, Lotus, McLaren, Lexus, Toyota and GM, Steve has come full circle – back to Ford. His book, “The Cars You Always Promised Yourself”, is effectively a love-letter to the iconic RS cars, XRs, the Capri, and SVE cars that truly capture the imagination, now as much as then. It dives into the last 50 years highlighting the game-changers in Ford to what design has become today with the S550 Mustang, Focus RS, and Ford GT. Peek behind the scenes into a secret world on how the icons were born. See prototypes and might-have-beens
Steve will give a sneak peek into his book during his seminars on Friday (3PM) and Saturday (2:30PM). Steve will also be located in Building Y throughout the event weekend.
