I'm looking to start a thread which ONLY contains everyone's:
1. Build date
2. Build #
3. the 2 names on the engine plaque
Be sure to include your interior color/fabric as well.
Please post in this thread ONLY IF YOU HAVE THIS INFO.
This could be a very informative and interesting thread.
I'll try to keep it up to date with a list of everyone's info.
I'd start it off myself, but I don't remember the 2 builders names, and my car is in storage until April.


*Just an update for those of you with the paper tags who CAN NOT read your signatures. 1-800-FORD-SVT can not supply you with the builder names or replacement tags. However, they CAN help you out with your Build# and date
If you need a new sig sticker for your 96-97, I have a couple available for $50 each. These are genuine FORD leftovers.
