Does anyone have original articles on the 5.0?

Does anyone have original road test from motortrend, car & driver, car craft and other, on the original road test 86-93. I would love to read some articles commenting on the car when it was new, thanks.

If I'm not mistaken, the "Mustang 5.0 Technical Reference and Performance Handbook" by Kirschenbaum (SP?) has original road test numbers as written in magazines like Car and Driver, Road and Track, etc. I'd have to go home and look, but I don't think it has any complete articles. I'm sure these magazines have run articles on the 5.0s when they were new, perhaps some "Mustang vs. Camaro" comparisons. Hope this helps.

Let me look through my mags. I have TONS and TONS of Car Craft, Hot Rod and other mags from years past laying around here.
Email me and I will tell you what I have.
