Default Best Restoration Guide

I'm looking for a good restoration guide book to help me in the process of my 65 fastback project. There are so many to choose from which is the best and most complete guide or am I better off just getting several and using pieces from several books.

Thanks,
pwhit

I have several in my library - all have something to offer and provide lots of useful information.
Here are two i use, I especially like the one by Larry Dobbs and Donald Farr.

And, here is another that is quite comprehensive. A mustang owner can't have too many books. Tom Corcoran and Earl Davis are well recognized experts in the Mustang restoration world.

Have any of you used the book Soaring is refering to. That is the one that I have been looking at. I may just get several different books and try and compare the info in them. I just don't want to waste valuable restomod money on books that tell me the same thing.

Ok, can anyone tell me the difference between the book Soaring posted and this one. They are written by the same people. I believe it was just a different publisher. Correct me if I'm wrong. The only thing I'm not sure about is this one says it's the 2nd edition. Is it newer than the one Soaring showed or is that one a newer edition?
