I've been looking at this 69 coupe i found off an old classified ad from Houston, and me and the owner have been emailing back and forth, and when he sent me the VIN number for the car, it reads it was Manufactured in Dearborn. Well from what ive read from Mustang History books, Dearborn is not the supplier of ford cars down here in texas. Am I correct? or did i just dream up that fact?

 

its not for that DSO, however my car was ordred from dearborn with a DSO to Buffalo, and it ended up in Colorado back in the late 70's, so its all on the door tag, it will have all the info above the vin that you need including interior, rear end, tranny, and destination in which it was sent to thebuyer. The thing with it, is theres a good possiblity it was from somewhere over east, and made its way over to texas and some point in time. If you want or if you have it, ask for the door tag and let me know, ill decode the devil for you

 

the guy sent me 9F01F134567 and 65A E 2A 29L and when i decoded it all i got was:

model year: 1969
built at: Dearborn (Dearborn, MI)
bodystyle: Hardtop
engine: 302 CID - 2V
consecutive #: 134567
body series: Hardtop - standard-trim bucket seats
scheduled assy.: November 29, 1968
exterior color: "Aztec Aqua"
interior trim: (Low-back seats) Charcoal Black vinyl

ill ask him if there are any others he didnt send to me.

 

Not quite sure I understand the problem. Just because it was not DSO'd to Texas doesn't mean someone didn't drive it to Texas. Where is the problem here?

 

i was just trying to confirm that dearborn doesnt ship down here. but it kinda got off lol

 

My Texas car was born in May of 1965, and was manufactued in the San Jose Plant, but the DSO is Denver. So, I guess you may be right about Dearborn not having a DSO near Texas.

 

I have a dearborn car, and it ended up in ga from who knows where. i have one title from SC.

 

I think my 66 is also a Dearborn borned car.

 

i would actually prefer a dearborn car, i was born and raised up there and brought to texas. BUt there are 3 different ford mustang plants, Dearborn in michigan, San Jose in cali., and Metuchen in NJ. And from what i was told, each has certain states like San Jose is southwest and south, Metuchen is north and southeast, and dearborn is north and northwest states. Thats what i was told at least.

 

how come i have a dearborn car, and it's DSO is Atlanta,Ga? which is where i live.
