Hey Guys,
just curious as to what the diff (if any) there is between the 94 and 85 stang? I know they are basically the same car but ford does like to make little changes year to year.

Isn't the 85 speed density? What main things are you interested in knowing?

It weighs a whole bunch less than the SN95.

i think 95Blk's comment was directed at Scones, not you bud.

i thought the same thing - did he mean differences in a 94 vs a 95....... he has a four eye ('86), so i think he knows the differences in foxes and SN's.

must be a typo. ive kinda wondered the same (differences in 94 and 95's).

lol,
i keep getting myself into trouble with this old keyboard as far as typos. i could prolly do all the changes year to year from 79-93, but I don't know any differences between the 94 and 95. i'm sure there are some. hopefully you guys can tell me.

i belive that there is a trim piece on the rocker panel by the front wheel well that is L shaped that is only on a 95, not the 94. I may be wrong though

I have heard that on this forum as well, but I haven't seen anything to prove it yet.

I don't think there are any differences between 94 & 95. Someone correct me if I am wrong. I think there were some differences in the cobras, but the V6's and GT's remained the same.

If he meant 94-95, the 95's had a curved up rocker panel, (the bottom piece behind the front wheel). Also, I have heard that the redline is a little higher on the 95, although I don't know why it would be.

I've seen those trim things on the front end of the side skirt on some cars and have been told that means the car is a 95.

I don't have them on mine and it is a 95.

On second thought, I just remembered, they supposedly started mid-95, so not ALL 95's have them.

The new rocker panel started after 11/94. Well that is what I found out with some research.

1.the rocker was a replacement on late/early 94-95 assemb.
2.the early 94 has black plastic cup trim pieces on the strut towers that cover the caster/camber plate.
3.The location of some elec. pieces were moved from the 94 to the 95.
4.Early run 94's had left over 93 parts, mine had a 93 lower intake with plugs in the intake were the air intake temp sensor was.


Sometime between the 94-98, I dont know if it changed in 95 or not, the seatbelt hook that is on the seat back got inclosed as apposed to the C hook used on early cars.
