Meet The Tangerine Machine

[olred]

I've decided that my car has been repainted, most likely because it was wrecked. But now I'm wondering how to find out if it's a legit bright tangerine? Also, someone said you can find out what number it is out of the 829 made. Does anyone know if that's ture, or how you would go about finding out?

Look up the VIN # and decode it.

What does your door tag say? If the paint code is CM then it is a true bright tangerine car. I had my car decoded years ago but I do not remember from whom. Maybe try the history 999 report, it should be old enough by now to qualify.

I've had my orange monster for a month and I've done more to it than I did with my old car in the year I had it. It's a lot dirtier than when I bought it, but it's getting less ghetto everyday. I replaced the master cylinder the first week I had it. It was crazy having brakes after driving without any. I also bought it lowering springs but I'm holding off getting them put on. I'm hopefully getting the front end fixed soon. You can't really tell but there's something messed up with it. The car's been wrecked before in the front, so I'm not sure if they didn't put the bumper on right or if somethings bent but the bumper doesn't line up right with anything. You can see it with the foglights and the gap under the headlights. Anyway, here's some updated pictures of it looking dirty;

The car has been wrecked before so it doesn't have air bags. I'm planning to replace the steering wheel, but as you can see in the last picture the dash is also messed up. I was wondering if anyone know if this; 1994-04 Mustang Airbag Delete, Passenger Side by UPR at LRS - Same Day Shipping! is the thing that replaces that part of the dash? In the picture it looks like the piece that's broken on my car, but after reading the description, I'm a little confused. If that isn't the right piece, does anyone know where I can find that part to replace mine?
