Re: Get build information on your 2002-2005 Thunderbird.

Give me the year and last five VIN digits of your 2002-2005 Thunderbird to get build information on it.<?xml:namespace prefix = "o" ns = "urn:schemas-microsoft-com:office:office" /><o:p></o:p>

The "one of" number I will give you is how many cars were made like yours. Things like rarer colors, unusual body and hardtop color combos, lack of hardtop, lack of color accented interior, lack of SST (for the 2003-2005s), and deluxe instead of premium model are factors that would significantly reduce the number of cars made like the more typically built units.<o:p></o:p>

Marty, Note that the corrected numbers differed from your numbers because they didn't account for wheels or SST.

Yours was built, 8/29/03... there were 244 VMGs built before that date and four built on that date. For yours I do not have the data to determine in what order those four were built but it is safe to say yours is between the 245th and 248th built. Of these four, two were ordered before yours and one after.

P.S. The lowest VIN for a Mint Green is 1FAHP60A14Y100003 and the highest is 1FAHP60A44Y105941. It really doesn't say is what order they were built but your VIN (102088) is the highest # built 8/29/2003. The other three VINs are 102057, 101964, and 102019.
