Although you weren't soliciting opinions, I think those 16" 'snowflake' Turbo Coupe wheels would look great blacked out with the stock center caps. I have an extra set if you'd like to have a spare (I considered doing that myself).

Interesting topic on the research information. I ran that VIN through my Ford fleet access site and came up with similar results as found on the top of what the researchers found:
World Manufacturer Identifier - 1st, 2nd, 3rd Positions VIN Code: 1FA Assembly Country: UNITED STATES Make: Ford Body Style: Sedan Restraint System Type (Passenger Cars) or Brake Type and GVWR Class (Trucks and Vans) - 4th Position VIN Code: C Brake System: STANDARD GVWR Class: Line,Series Body Type - 5th, 6th, 7th Positions VIN Code: P40 Vehicle Line: Mustang Series: LX Vehicle Type: Passenger Car Engine Type - 8th Position VIN Code: E Engine: 5.0 L Cylinders: 8 Fuel: Gasoline Model Year - 10th Position VIN Code: P Model Year: 1993 Assembly Plant - 11th Position VIN Code: F Assembly Plant: DEARBORN, MICHIGAN Production Sequence Number - 12th - 17th VIN Code: 111908 Prod Sequence Number 111908 Additional Information Wheel Axles Wheelbase 201.0 (which seems wrong to me as a wheelbase but not overall length) Usually I've found that there is information out there on the sequences but it seems that the full build information is not released when you ask Ford for their research group to look at them. |

I wasted some time on a 999 report also. I did not have any luck as the paperwork they sent me was generic and NOT correct for my car.
The best way to confirm the info is either a build sheet, or window sticker, or emminger invoice for the 4 eyed cars. buck tags, door tag with DSO, and agency records are good also.

I was curious is the "999 report" supposed to be the same as the "build sheet" report from Ford. I've observed the "999 report" name in the past but the Ford rep I spoke with acted like I was speaking a foregin language when used that reference. She did understand "build sheet" request, though. Just something to keep in mind should someone place a call to the number listed above.

I was referring to the build sheet that some of us ALWAYS find in our cars, under the seats, behind the panels, under the carpet etc.

Jim,
Mike knew what you were referring to. Some people are calling the Ford 999s "build" sheets. Someone ought to file a lawsuit against them for wasting paper. SOME people find real build sheets all the time; must be karma. ![]()

I received mine today. The only info that I did not already know was that it was built on 2/22/89 and has an "Immersion Engine Heater".

This is the MN car, right? That would make sense.
