Guess this is the best place on the site to ask
I am always looking up and comparing details from Mustangs and now more Cougars and I’m having difficulties trying to quickly figure out when particular Cougars were built so I can compare them to the other data. Same month, time period and assembly plants to identify trends, patterns and sub patterns of practices and parts. I have plenty of ways to figure this out for the Mustangs and Shelby’s from collecting info for 40 years but I don’t have that for the Cougar side.
Anyone have a cheat sheet, spread sheet or something I can use to take a specific VIN and figure out what month it was likely completed in?
Thanks for the time and the look
Folks,
This is what he has done for Mustangs so far.
Great information and much will transfer over to Cougars. Undercarriage details are a difficult thing to document 45 to 50 years after the fact.
Good luck with the project.
P.S.
For some information on a late build 71 Cougar please see;
