2000 Spring Feature?

[Bluffing024]

I am not sure if my car is part of the Spring Feature package or not. It has different seats (see pics). It has the side scoops of the 2001+ models, and 17x8 wheels that came standard on 2001+ models. But I don't have the hood scoop

Other features in the package where black stripes (don't think they were included on a black car)

Black Mustang Inserts (also not included on a black car)

Take pictures of the entire car.

Spring feature cars have dual black stripes on the hood that say GT and have the hood scoop and side scoops of the 99 anniversary car.

Also, for wheels they don't have the 2001 bullitt wheels, they have the same machine finish painted 5-spoke wheels like the 35th anniversary cars.


There were only 3091 GT's made with this package


The odd thing about your seats is that the pony is running the wrong way on the seat. It should be running right to left, not left to right like yours is

I found that odd too, but it's kinda cool how the ponys are running at each other.

Well those are the correct machine finish spring feature wheels.


Looks like a SF to me, but you should also have a hood scoop

Thats exactly what I thought. Can you tell SF's by the VIN maybe?

 

[Mustang5L5]

Not sure. I beleive there is a way you can tell through Ford. I forget what it's called...a 999 report or something like that. I beleive they can also bring up the window sticker? Might be something you can look into.

I did some google searching, and even the black ones seem to have come with the stripes. They would be flat black.

With only 3100 made, not a whole lot of info.

\Maybe it isn't one. When I was searching about them I didn't see any info on the seats being different though, and mine are? I've never seen any like the ones in my car before. Plus, like you said, the pony on the passengers seat is backwards.

But it also has the side scoops.

All I can think of is someone put on the side scoops (yet didn't add the hood scoop) and had the seats re-done?

 

[Mustang5L5]

Well the cincher to me are the wheels. Those machined wheels are tough to find.

 

[Bluffing024]

Aren't they the same ones that are on the 01+ GTs and 35th GTs?

Those wheels are sitting in my shed in the backyard...haha

 

[Mustang5L5]

Yes and no.

Normally they are painted argent. The 99 and 00 GT premiums came with the argent painted versions. Also, the 2001-2004 GT deluxes came the same argent wheels. The 2001+ Premiums got bullitts.

Only the '99 35th anniversary edition and the '00 spring feature got the machined versions. The '99 version had black stripes on the spokes while the '00 did not have them

DO you have any pics of the wheels up close? From the pics they look machined. I'd make sure they were cleaned up because there are only 3100 sets of them kicking around if that's what you have

 

[Bluffing024]

I am going to go clean one up and take a picture. Check back in a few minutes..

 

[Bluffing024]

Here we are..

 

[Mustang5L5]

That's them

My car is a half-breed.

The SF should have the vinyl sticker/inserts in the slots. Can't see if they're there or not by the pic.

They also have the honeycomb trunk panel on the hatch, which his does not.

 

[Bluffing024]

Don't have : Vinyl Inserts/Stripes, Hood Scoop, Honeycomb Panel


Do have: Side Scoops, Machined wheels, Seats (Don't know if they are SF or something else)




HALF BREED!!!!!

 

[Bluffing024]

I did some searching and I didn't see anything about honeycomb rear panel though...

 

[Red35th]

Only 35ths had the honeycomb.

I would guess that it is a SF and the hood was either swapped out or the guy didn't like the hoodscoop/strips (alot of guys with Black 35th and Mach 1s pull their stripes off).

 

[Bluffing024]

I wonder if the dealer could tell me if it was one of the Spring Features?

Ya, I was just thinking it was the anniv. edition. My mistake.
