Now I shoulda looked em up, but these look good! Don't know any came with a full size spare, 91 last year for black moldings, 87 last year for t-tops, ordered mine 10/31/87, t's weren't available. Underdrive pulley might be a Cobra R thing, the emission crap they did then made Ford leave lots of good stuff they had off of production cars. I want the answer's, now!

Well, commercially would mean not for general public use right? Like a dump truck is a commercial vehicle...

To my knowledge (which isn't much really...lol) the SSPs were the only cars to ever have full size spares.

Who know which year Ford Produced a TWIN TURBO car. I believe Jack Roush built it for Ford. It never went into production, obviously.

1990, Ford was playing with the idea of that being the 25th anniversary car but they determined it was too radical

Click to expand...

technically 1989, but yes they decided it was too radical and too costly to produce a run of them...

the only one that I'm truly beat on is the "commercially available" aspect of the first question...i know the 93 R had a full size spare but that wasnt truly available to the public...neither were the SSP's but i have no idea off the top of my head if they had full size spares...

air bag was 1990, power drivers seat was earlier on, 1993 i actually thought the CD player was introduced but im not wholly sure what else it might be in 1992...i had a 92, nothing about it was particularly special...
