fox body speedo

Halfway through the 1989 model year was when the 140MPH speedo first appeared in an aero nose Fox Mustang. The trend continued for all 90-93 V8 models. 4-bangers never got more than the 85MPH speedo.


Ford did offer a rare aftermarket 140MPH speedo you could put in, and all 1982-1989 Mustangs used as SSP Police Mustangs came with 140MPH speedos. In 1990-1993, the SSP Mustang came with a 160MPH speedo.

I also beleive the SVO had a 140MPH Speedo, but it was only numbered up to 85MPH as was the law...but the tick marks were there and the needle would sweep past 85.
