Description i was hoping this whole project would kick off and be reasonably done before id finished uni but no luck some references are so hard to find but heres a glimpse.
here was the second profile section made. the idea was to show the visible differences easily, for identifying the correct year. i knew it would be useful for when working out cars in things like photographs and such, just by matching the features
now, its not completely exact blueprint of each, but close enough, i had to draw each of these by various methods of tracing and measuring by eye from pictures..if i was lucky enough i had an exact side-on shot to draw from but very rarely i could find one. also, i did not do every single year, this is notes of every change to the design of the car, only things necessary were put on see, thus some years it might only show a coupe or a fastback, common sense can work out what other models would look like from previous examples, and using the features shown of that specific year.
anyway, heres mustangs through the years

Ain't much better than an old fox body. Love 'em all equally though! It'd be great if you could do an updated version for 2020!
