ROB WALKO – ROB WALKO PHOTOGRAPHY
NEW MUSTANG BOOK: UNBRIDLED
“The Passion, Performance & Politics Behind America’s Favorite Pony Car examines the lineage of Ford’s famed filly from Henry Ford’s Quadricycle through the new Dark Horse. It delves deep into the internal and external economics and politics that have affected Mustang. It chronicles the design, engineering, manufacturing, and marketing of regular and limited-production models. And it highlights the marque’s most memorable racing exploits.
UNBRIDLED is told from a completely unique perspective that is both familiar - yet captivatingly controversial.
Boasting an incredible array of never-before-published photos of stock and modified Mustangs provided by owners from Canada, Mexico, Germany, Norway, Belgium, Australia, Switzerland, Japan, the Netherlands, and all across these great United States of America; UNBRIDLED is more than “just another car book.” It’s an American history
We met Rob Walko at a Mustang event and immediately saw his passion and creativity when it comes to photography. Rob was so focused on capturing the best shots that we weren’t sure if he was even enjoying the actual event itself. We were dead wrong. The truth is, Rob was in his happy place and book in which Mustang is an ever-evolving character.”
- Robert M. Kennedy, author Robert M. Kennedy is a graduate of Wyoming Technical Institute, a former Porsche Premier Technician, a contributing writer for Ford Performance, and a member of both the Mustang Car Club of Omaha and the Mustang Club of America. Kennedy, who co-sponsors and coordinates Ford Performance’s annual Mustang II National Reunions has previously produced a “zero-budget” documentary: Adapt or Die: The Mustang II Story, and has owned 10 Mustangs since acquiring his first Fox-body in 1997. Ranging from base models to V8-powered resto-mods and an ultra-rare Classic II convertible (MCA Gold Award winner), Kennedy’s Mustangs have been featured in Muscle Mustangs & Fast Fords, Mustang Monthly, Stang Magazine, and Mustang Times. Intent on penning the definitive account of Mustang’s illustrious history from a genuinely unique and interesting perspective, and complimenting that story with as many high-quality owner-sourced images as possible, Kennedy has gone to extraordinary lengths to independently publish UNBRIDLED on behalf of all those “Mustangers” around the world who love their prized thoroughbreds and yearn to learn more about their legacy.
He is able to capture the moment, help others keep those precious memories, and deliver with detail. We are proud to have him as part of our STANG Magazine family and we would definitely recommend his work. This issue highlights Rob’s Mustang passion and definitely gives you an idea of the creativity this man has. His passion is limitless.
