I stand corrected .
Great thread!
What motor was in the 84.5 GT350?
No takers on these?
Q) Where were the production pace cars assembled (this one should be easy)?
Q) What unique feature in a real (production) pace cars vin # identifies it as such?
Q) What transmission did the actual race prepped pace cars use? - greensvt21 gave this one in his full description of the 3 race prepped pace cars. - A) Modified C-4

Years for T-Top mustangs: 83-88.5
Now, here's my question (Keeping it T-Top)
How did T-Top Mustangs differ in regards to the interior vs regular hard top Mustangs?
How many T-Top Mustangs were produced?
What was the only stylistic change between the 87 & 88 T-Top Mustangs?
I'm going to do some 1993 Cobra R questions over the next few days for those that may be interested in those.

2. what was the body/chassis changes over the regular 93 cobra?

Production was '79 through '82 ('79 through mid-'81 in the US, '79 through '82 in Canada). The carb'd 2.3T was standard in the Cobra package and optional in all other models, including the Pace Car ('79) and the GT in '82 (again, Canada only).Evil86lx said:What years where the carbed 2.3 turbo motors produced and what models got them?

There was no "White Magic". There was an advertisement for the Black Magic painted Polar White(paint code 9D) and the title of the ad was "White Lightning". But it was still called "Black Magic".Project 77 said:ASC McLaren
