The Third Generation Registry is the place. Stu Jones is quite helpful because he knows about all things Fox-and then some. I believe at this point, Stu has VIN info and tons of general production information on Mustangs through the '99 model year. By now, however, he might have data on the later model years, too. Write to him at thirdgenreg@aol.com with the information about your car-including the VIN-and he'll likely help you learn more about your car. While you're at it, tell him Mustang Monthly sent you.
