Hello BLACK-MACHINE,

You can also PM me with your VIN and I can send you the link to the window sticker.

No, DRAGUL. The window sticker link will not work on your 2001 or 2005 Mustang. The link only works within 7 years of the current model year. However, you can contact our Customer Relationship Center at 1-800-392-3673 and order a window label. Our Research Team will be more than happy to get one out to you.

It’s ok, BLACK-MACHINE. Please add your VIN at the end of this link: http://fordlabels.webview.biz/webvie...cker.aspx?vin=

Also just a side note I purchased a certified ford certificate and had it mailed toe with my build date and exact breakdown. It's now framed and hanging in the garage it's beautiful in my opinion also signed... A great $45 mod IMO
That plus a carfax is also a good history
