Question

How do you find that out? I think read somewhere here that you call SVT and give them the VIN, but i forgot the number.

Just call 1-800-FORD-SVT with your VIN, and tell them you want your build number.

So much for the theory of Wednesday built vehicles. New engine and new transmission for me.

Something's not right here. Based on the numbers so far, it looks like they were building between 35 and 60 L.'s each working day. But then we go from 2000 Trade In (#1333 on 3-20) and 2000 Black (#1326 on 3-20) to Lstorm (#1419 on 5-22). If the numbers are assigned sequentially then they took 45 working days to build another 86 L.'s, or less than 2 per day. Can someone explain this to me?

OK, now I'm really confused since GalaxyEng just posted. LSTORM, did you maybe post an incorrect build date?

Moonshine,

They build them in batches. Notice between what04 and 2000trade there were about 500 machines built in the space of two weeks. Then they probably went back to regular production for a couple weeks, then switched back to Lightnings. Rinse and repeat as necessary. They don't build all 5000 at once.
