The 2000 Cobra R is the correct answer. Racin Jason has 1 point with the first correct answer.

Next Question:
What was the name of the concept car that predated the '03 Cobra by 10 years, but featured a roots-supercharged, intercooled, four valve 4.6 under the hood?

Next Question:What is the month and year that the one-millionth mustang was produced?
svopaul
Well, I am going to disagree on that one....I once bought a 1983 GT from the original owner years ago that had the split rear seat....the car was well documented down to the original window sticker and completely stock....even with pictures from when he took delivery.
Racin Jason
Well I know the year but I don't know what month, anybody else know?
svopaul
I believe it was March of '66....not 100% though.

My mom's 83 had a solid rear seat in it and it was original when we got it. Of course it has no seat now. LOL

I have had '83 Mustangs with the 1 piece fold down seat too and have seen more of those than the split seat cars but I believe it to be a mid or late/year changeover. Just like many other things that were mid production changes like:
-Quad shocks(appeared during '84 production starting in December of '83)
-85.5 SVO changes(intake, computer, headlights, etc)
-different seats during Fox production
-black interior in 1990

You could get any color you want as long as it is Black quoted by Henry Ford

The other 2 were Red and Blue

They are not true 40th anniversary models....EVERY Mustang in '04 got the fender emblem but just like back in 1999 for the 35th anniversary there were a few select colors that were the real anniversary models while all of them got the fender badge. In '99 things like hood scoops, side scoops, instrument cluster trim and upholstery were different on the anniversary models. I didn't pay close attention to the 40th specific models to see what was different on those.

Also back in 1989 EVERY Mustang got the 25th anniversary dash emblem but they were NOT 25th anniversary models...the official 25th anniversary model was the "7up" feature convertible that was released a little later for the '90 model year.

Well there is more than 1 difference.....the Dash clock was removed from the top of the dash and the '98 GT was rated 10HP more than the '97 model(probably a computer program difference but could be an actual mechanical difference in cam profile or heads).....those are the 2 that are on the top of my head right now...could be others.
Racin Jason
The major thing most people know about was the clock disappeared off the dash in 98.

Here's one:

What was the first year after 1971 that a 31 spline axle came factory installed in a Mustang?
Racin Jason
9 inch rears came through the 73 model. Some had 31 spline, some 28.
svopaul
QUOTE(Racin Jason @ September 11 2007, 11:47 AM) *

Yes but in the Mustang they stopped in '71 with the Boss 351 and 429 cars....72 and 73 only had the standard 28 spline 9" in the Mustang. Think later.... newer....past the 1st generation Mustangs.
Racin Jason
I believe the mustang 9 inch was available with 31 splines until 1973. I am going to have to check. My uncle has been building trans and rear ends for Ford for ages not to mention a Big time racer. I'll double check with him he'll know for sure.

The 9" was availabe in 31 spline all through the 70's but to my knowledge it was not availabe past '71 but my sources could be mistaken....

For the sake of the question at hand let's change it to what Mustang after 1973 wink.gif.


Also, here is another one....

What was the first year and model Mustang to come factory equipped with 30lb/hr fuel injectors?

I will take a guess. 1999 on the axle

30lb injectors.....1996 Cobra?
Shinoda Cobra
Here is another:
What year was the battery moved to the driver's side of the engine compartment?
Racin Jason
I'm not sure either on the injectors? I know the 2000R had 31 spline halfshafts and the 05 up have 31 spline axles. As far as injectors, I'll guess 95 R I don't know?
Racin Jason
I believe my beloved fox cars were first, not sure though. Somebody jump in on this one, I am not up on 74-78s. Ray I know you love them you gotta clue?

This was on the battery location. I'm not sure what year. I have seen 84s on the driver side but my 79 was on the passenger side. Don't know what year?
svopaul

Nope on both....



Jason is correct on the 2000 R being the first year for 31 spline since first generation Mustangs. 1999 Cobras had 28 spline axles/axle shafts and then in 2001 the Cobra got the 31 spline standard thanks to the introduction on the 2000 R model. In 2003 the axle shafts got much beefier but still retained 31 spline...so the '03/04 Cobra axle shafts are an upgrade for a 2001 Cobra owner but a 1999 Cobra owner would have ot change out the traction lock assy in order to use the beefier terminator axle shafts.


Still open on the Injector question....


Now on to another question...for the vintage Mustang nuts....Who can tell me what this is or anything about it?.....Click to view attachment
svopaul
On the battery location....the Mustang II is the unkown for me as well.....I am going to guess 1984 or 1983 but that's purely a guess as I know it's battery was on the Driver side on the 84 SVO....
