The only book to feature “The Most Famous Mustang in the World” from the Gone in 60 Seconds movies in a deluxe hardcover format!Few cars have played such an important role in a Hollywood movie. In fact, two movies if you include the original 1974 Gone in 60 Seconds feature and the 2000 remake. This beautiful book offers the first authorized account of the origins of this fabled automotive movie star, from its conception by car collector H.B. “Toby” Halicki – who wrote, directed and starred in the original Gone in 60 Seconds movie – to becoming a cult hero among motoring fans around the world. Such was the impact of the original independent film that it was ripe for a blockbuster remake in 2000, where the original yellow 1971 Ford Mustang Sportsroof Eleanor was replaced by a silver 1967 Mustang Fastback, with Nicolas Cage reprising the principal role. Eleanor isn’t just a movie star, she is a work of art and the book is packed with stunning photography of one of the most desirable cars in the world, numerous posters, production documents, premiere invites and other fascinating ephemera – much of it published for the first time – the book provides a unique insight into the world of Eleanor. It is guaranteed to appeal to fans of both Mustangs and movies alike.
