SGT/SC#0471 Posted January 26, 2008 Report Share Posted January 26, 2008 So if I remember right, someone posted along time ago that they were not numbered sequentially when they were built at SAI. Does anybody know the real deal on this? Thanks! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
William Rodgers Posted January 27, 2008 Report Share Posted January 27, 2008 I would say Yes because I have 5696 and my car has all the updates the 2008 has. The front grill and the hood were done correct from SAI. I would not mind the 2008 Door Sills. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JeffIsHereToo Posted January 27, 2008 Report Share Posted January 27, 2008 It's my understanding, and this is from conversations and observations, that they are "roughly" sequential especially later in the line. I don't believe there was a special effort made to make sure the cars numbers were EXACTLY in production order. That has never been represented as the case. These are "CSM" numbers, not production line numbers, but having said that they are pretty close with some exceptions and given the fact one car may take a little longer than another and leave the building after a car with a higher number etc. Are you asking just out of curiosity or why do you ask?

RogerS Posted January 27, 2008 Report Share Posted January 27, 2008 I can tell you for a fact that they were not. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ShelbyPilot Posted January 27, 2008 Report Share Posted January 27, 2008 To make your answer even more confusing. There are some CSM numbers that were special assignments. Meaning the owner or their agent made a special request for a specific number. There is at least one very low number out there that I know was built well after my car.

William Rodgers Posted January 27, 2008 Report Share Posted January 27, 2008 Good stuff, I am just happy I have the updated Grill and Hood Scoop. That said, my car was made in June of 2007 according to my sticker in my door jamb. What month did Ford stop making the Mustang in 2007? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I did at one time know the exact date but I can't find the reference now. MM may know as it's a date that's common knowledge. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AFBLUE2 Posted January 28, 2008 Report Share Posted January 28, 2008 My car supposedly is the lowest numbered blue 08 SGT, but it was nowhere near the first one built. Probably 1000 blue ones built before mine. It's a long story. See my signature for the short version. i.e. ordered in Jun 07 but didn't arrive at SAI until Nov 07. I originally requested and was approved for 08SGT0023 but was later informed that 1-219 were reserved for Grabber Orange GT-Cs. I then was offered 0220 by SAI. UPDATE: The lowest CSM# for a Vista Blue SGT is 0218. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SGT/SC#0471 Posted January 29, 2008 Author Report Share Posted January 29, 2008 Thanks guys, i was just curious as the previous numbered car has shown up on the forum and I thought that was cool and a nice owner too. This site is cool. A friend of mine and I were talking about the numbers thats all. No worries, just trivia for me. Thanks Again! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
