Mustang I.D. numbers

[Mustang I.D. numbers]

 

Does your country have the equivalent of a salvage title, where the government just assigns a brand new number?

We have 2 papers

1st - passport of the vehicle (created by custom). We keep it home. Just for registration.

 

 

2nd - driving certificate or license (can't explain correctly). Always with driver.

 

 

Some data in road police data base, but it's hide.

They were produced at 3 different plants. Each plant had their own numbers.

Oh, got something new

Thanks!

I agree with BinaryBo, if the door data plate is gone, the VINs from the inner fenders and engine are gone, and the windshield VIN is obviously fake, there's no way to tell what you've got. The T5 guess was just speculation on my part based upon all the unusual parts it has.

But you know, it quite close to true, because in USSR period was very complicated to buy a mustang in USA.

Part of Germany was in USSR and Russian (Soviet) army was there. Yes the mustang could be in west of Germany but same case is could happened.

Unit number 284582 is too high for a 1969 Mustang...for any of the assembly plants. That VIN looks more like it belongs to a 1979 Mustang.

 

Without the VIN from the inner fender, you may be stuck. I would want a Marti Report before assuming it was a T-5.

 

Thanks for sharing the pictures. Very interesting!

 

Good luck!

Today i digged this link: http://www.insearchofmustangs.org/Registry/List.aspx?y=1969

and yes, nothing close to such digits 284582. Maximum was found is 222319.

 

So, let say it's fake or some T5 special code

But it's strange - total produced quantity of the 69's is 299814 - VIN # should be at list 399815...

Good link http://www.fordt5.com/history.html

....Positive identification of early T5s is sometimes difficult.... )

Ok, thank you Roger!

I will try to figure out the original Vin # of that pony by last 6 digits. In case if it wrong, so i will proceed to go in this way because a lot of efforts and founds is spent for this project. And title what i have is important for driving the car. I would like to complete it in the future and get some clone of cobra jet or close to this.

In past time (USSR) here was such title

 

and most of foreing cars lost first marks (as 9F02Z for example) and only digits was mentioned as 284582. And model - Ford, Dodge, Chevrolet. No any names as mustang, cherger or whatever some time.

 

 

In 1996 a new stile titles was created with every numbers in it.

 

 

So if the previous owner bught this mustang in 1985 or like this and sold it after 1996 the police add in new title any sings with correct digits.

I think NORG is asking what type of mustang (i.e. mach 1, etc) is associate with #284582. I think only a Marti Report would tell you that.

Yes! Absolutely!

But i thought some of american classic mustang owners has this catalog )

It's hard to tell from the pictures but it appears you may have a T5. Ford could not legally use the name "Mustang" in Germany so the cars exported there were called T5's. Many US servicemen bought them.

 

It is not a Boss 429, but even a 6-cylinder T5 fastback is quite rare (if that is a fastback, I can't tell). I am not a T5 expert by any means but there are some things that look strange to me - the "Ford" grille badge (may be a legit T5 thing), the hand brake, console, door panels and steering wheel all look odd.

 

There should be VIN numbers stamped in the front fender rails, above the front wheels, can you tell us if they are there?

 

Not 429 for sure. 

I don't realy know from were this car - from USA or Germany. But in time when it was delivered the Soviet Union was here. And i think it was form Germany. 

No any stamps on a fender or door or shock tower. It was fully rewelded with billions pieces of sheet metal. The bottom is made with sheet metal full.

The dash tag has # 9F02Z284582 but it can be fake. That is why i'm asking - what is written in catalog with production number 284582? May be it's 9R01M284582 or like this.

 

It's nice to hear that is not mustang and it's T5 )

just for inspiration - one more american iron close to my hometown in backyard:

Thanks Roger,

But i mean the spec list, because i have a doubt about the VIN tag information.

In a ford catalog this production number mentioned. Is it matched or not?

Unfortunately the motor is gone as transmission and rear axle. No any tag's on door and fender

I will try to add a pics.

Dear Gentleman,

Does anybody has the book "Mustang I.D. numbers"?

I looking for decoding the number of my mustang. So I mean the specification - painting code, axle, transmission. 

Also i have a doubt about production number. Suppose it can be wrong.

# 9F02Z284582 

 

The car sitting many years in Russia. Fully rewelded body underneath. The roof and glass openings in good shape.

Axle, motor and transmission from "Volga".

 

So, got some parts from junkyards: '95 8.8 rear axle and 5 lug front suspension, '91 body for parts, as all bottom shell, 460 BBF, C6,

 

Thanks!
