I have a couple collectible Ford books for sale. I have enjoyed them but I don't have room to keep everything and I thought someone here might enjoy them rather then sending them to the local used book store.
First up is "The Ford Century" by Russ Banham with a forward by Paul Newman. This was published on the 100th anniversary of Ford by Ford and is a coffee table book with lots of cool pictures. First edition.
$25 delivered anywhere in the US. If you are outside the US we can do $20 plus actual shipping.

Second up is "Ford: Decline and Rebirth 1933-1962" by Allan Nevins and Frank Ernest Hill. Published in 1962, this is a discarded library book that I bought at a rare book store. It is the third volume of three they wrote on Ford. 500+ pages it was a fascinating read. It is an independent book (at times not very Ford-flattering) but clearly they had access to interviews of lots of the people actually there and a fair bit of business data (financials, production data, old org charts...)
It covers Ford's recovery from the depression, the war years, Ford's international operations and the personal and political struggles during Henry Ford's decline in health and after his death.

There are copies on Amazon from used book dealers starting at $50 - I am asking $30 delivered in the US or $25 + actual shipping if you are outside the US.
I can do PayPal or we can work something else out. I will respond to folks in the order of PM's sent.
