HSH website has a Mortgage rate Trends and analysis tool which has lots of data on historical mortgage rates. The data covers monthly data points from 1987 to 2010. They have info on 30 year fixed, 15 year fixed and ARM mortgage rates. You can also look at the rates for individual states and even drill down to individual metro areas as well. The data doesn't go back to 1987 for all areas.
So if you want to see how a 30 year fixed FHA mortgage compares to a 30 year 7/1 ARM in the Houston, Texas metro area from 1990 to 2000 then this tool will give you all the figures and plot a nice graph.
