Hi again. I don't have any of the data on your car, 66Sprint200. Sorry about that.
Most of the 'A' code cars didn't come with the GT package. 'A' code cars were available starting in mid august of 64, while the GT package wasn't available for purchase until mid april of 65. When you got an A code car after the GT package became available, you still had to pay extra for the GT package. It was an additional $151.10 over the $157.31 to get the 'A' code motor. A lot of people think that all A code cars were GTs, but that isn't the case. It's been a while since I've seen a single exhaust, drum brake 'A' code, but that isn't because Ford didn't build any like that. Ford built plenty of them, it's just that people have changed them over after the fact.
Nothing against Veronica but do you know how many HELPFUL people you insult by singling one person out ?
There are many people on the internet that are even more helpful with their time and knowledge than Veronica....
Talk about insulting someone.....
Veronica is not getting paid to do this. She offers her considerable knowledge and database to be helpful to all us Mustang enthusiasts and I applaud her for it.
Why do you care if someone asks Veronica for help instead of you?

Some people choose to be insulted when there is no reason to be. Some of us don't know where to turn for help except those who have helped others that we know.

I think the VIN does in this case. It says that it is a 289 4V. IIRC, that engine option was only available as part of the GT package.
To get a GT you had to have a A or K code as the engine option, however, you could get a A or K code without the GT package. It was just an add on package.

Can anybody help me and figure out what would be production date of my stang ? The vin is 5F08C741305, I appreciate a lot.
thanks
The car would have a date of 26S (May 26, 1965) as I have VINs 5F07F739758 to 5F09A741892 with that date with 8 others inbetween with the same scheduled date.

Trying to find my father's 1973 Mustang Grande he bought brand new. 3F04F126773 last known registration and title was in New Jersey, 1982.
On the site l posted a link to, I found that VIN's 5F07F739758 and 5F08A742231 have a 26S scheduled build date, but here are some listed in between with different dates:

I guess the VIN's didn't go down the assembly line in order.
Ya i saw that too, doesn't make much sense like these 5F07F120757 is 28D and 5F07D120863 is 24D... and more than half of the cars on this list are missing the production dates.
I was a moderator on a big Ford site from around 2000 to 2004 and Dennis "MIL1ION" was also a moderator there during the last year or so. Even back then, he would blurt out things that came across as extremely rude to the rest of us, but once you get to know him, you'll see that he really does mean well. His technical postings were usually spot on, it's just he's never learned about online social etiquette.
That being said, I got tired of putting out all of the fires he started so I resigned as a moderator

Hi again. It appears that he has gone on to greener pastures, so, I suppose that the question of his technical expertise, or lack thereof, is moot.
