    All that is correct. Factory "paint" stripes are painted on at the factory. They are not vinyl stripes stuck to the surface of the paint. If your blue pinstripes are vinyl applied over the original light charcoal stripes that was done aftermarket. If your blue pinstripes are painted on...

    Fox Two tone clear coat

    Ford did not start using production clearcoat paints on the Mustang until the 1990 model year, and still then not all of the production colors were C/C every year. Even some 1993 paints were still single stage. 1990 = 4 non-C/C (EH, EP, YC, YO), 7 C/C 1991 = 4 non-C/C (EM, EP, YC, YO), 8 C/C...

    Any way to tell if my car is modified?

    Looks like the "smog pump" is bypassed, if it is even there any more. It also has dual mid pipes, instead of the original one, and aftermarket mufflers. Can't tell if the lite-off or primary cat converters have been removed...no pics.

    Fox 88 mustang

    Never heard of a factory "limited edition" in 1988, or for any regional sales office, but things have come up before that no one knew about. Now an "executive" car is not a special edition or limited edition. They're ordered through DSO 89 just the same as any other Ford employee or affiliated...

    Paint and Body 1991 mustang ssp questions

    Buck tag has a paint code, and they are a little hard to hide the codes by painting over them. Plus if it were an SSP the DSO buck tag would say so. No guessing or speculating where it originally served.

    Paint and Body 1991 mustang ssp questions

    SCHP SSPs with 'two-tone' special paint were a combination of "fleet grey" and regular production color. These were the special paint color codes on the door tag: 1989 = W2813 M6062 1990 = W2813 M6330 1991 = W2813 M6401 1992 = W2813 M6401 W2813 = Fleet Grey M6062 = regular production color...

    If the car was a "special paint" originally it was done by Ford, not the agency that ordered it.

    KF201528 was originally an unmarked FHP. It was painted white, per the 9L paint code on the buck tag. It was not two-tone (Cream and Black) FHP colors. DSO 24 (Jacksonvile FL district sales office) does not always mean the car was ordered from a dealer in Florida or used in Florida. At least...

    1980 302?

    The only Mustang GT that would have had that E0AE block originally was 1982 or early (before Dec 1982) 1983.

    1980 302?

    First, do not go by casting number to tell you what year the block was used. That is wrong. That codesdoes not say E0ZE. It probably says E0AE. (Z = Mustang, A = generic Ford) That code is an engineering number and all it tells you is what the block was originally engineered (designed) for...
