I got a copy of this EXCELLENT book for my brother for Christmas and it is just a spectacular book.

I want to get a copy for one of the people who helped me out in getting my GT and making things so easy for me - and I need to have it by Friday.

I've been to FOUR Target stores today including the one I got my bro's copy at and I cannot find it - same goes for searching Target's webiste online!!!

Can't find it on AMAZON either!! Anyone know where I can order one online quick??....

Thanks!!!!

Try the book stores in the mall or try Barnes and Noble online or if you have a store near by.

Tom - thanks alot but sadly, no. That first one I keep fidning everywhere but its not the one with the silver cover you could get at Target....

Thanks lots for the effort though!


[Hey dude - like your avatar - reminds me of one of the covers for the one graphic novel I believe was called 'Son of the Demon', although I might be wrong...]

Try this link. It will search hundreds of book stores all over the US and find just about anything new or used, Cheap!.

For some reason, the link takes you to the middle of the page. You may need to scroll up.

Hey - thanks to all the further replies since last night. The only place I had found it listed was that Consumer Reports page - I was going to call that number and order if worse came to worse today....

But SUCCESS!!!!
Went to three different places today (so far about nine total between bookstores, Targets, Walmarts, etc....) and found ONE copy at a BORDERS books - and they don't even have it listed on their website and their online catalog is pretty thorough.

Phew...... if anyone sees this book, grab it - it excellent, you won't be dissapointed...... AND its hard as heck to find after the holidays!!

Its full title is FORD MUSTANG: FORTY YEARS OF FUN - by the editors of Consumer Reports. It is hardcover and has a shiny silver cover.

Thanks again to everyone who tried to lend a hand!

I ordered this book (40 Years of Fun) from the link that LoneStarFighter provided above today. With shipping, it came to $29.95. Not bad, considering I've done a lot of traveling around to find it local. The only problem was they said it would be 3 weeks before it arrived from UPS. But, that'll spread some Christmas joy into the middle of January I suppose!
