Be interesting to see how many I have listed, I did a seach and found 27 within a 300 mile radius of St. Pete.

Vin # 1FHP60A72Y104506 Red over red premium with full interior. Delivered 11/23, purchased from dealer stock. Dealer would not take orders.

 

[KYbluebird]

Stopped by dealer and while there, mine arrived all by itself on the truck

Got to unwrap it myself, what a Christmas present.

I'm trying to wait until next week to save on taxes but don't know if I can make it. Will find out tomorrow when it's all cleaned up.

#7729, partial blue
premium, no top.

Found at Beaudry Ford in Atlanta...a blue/blue/full blue premium on showroom floor. Exactly the car I have on order...could not talk them into selling to me instead of the guy who came to pick it up yesterday afternoon. For a few seconds I thought I had stumbled onto a miracle. Oh well, I'll just wait another couple of months. It was VIN# 5646. Life goes on.

------------------
blue/blue/full blue/premium on order: 10 of 18

Dear jodrod.. I have been following the board for some time... You guys are doing an incredible job of helping everyone keep up on the status of their "Birds".. Nice job and keep up the good work.. I also read on one that you were from PA...

PA 02 Bird,

Originally from Jenkintown, about 3 miles outside of Philly, been in St. Pete since 1966.

Thanks for the info.

According to the Yahoo Group "A Black Convertible was received yesterday at the Mullinax dealership in Cleveland, Vin 8511."

This is actually further along than I anticipated. For #8511 to be delivered means that they built it at least a week or two ago. That means the factory must be 7-10 production days past # 8511. At 100 cars a day, they may be producing 9000 series cars as we speak.

I'm # 9476.... and doing a "Happy Dance" right now!

TBIRD II,

What Yahoo group is that, the highest I have listed for delivery is 7729 on 12/26.

edit: Never mind, I saw the message.

Joe (TBird II),

I also hate to burst your bubble, but I spoke with someone at the factory just before the holiday break. My car 8391 is just now in paint an will begin assembly on January 2. I'll be visiting the factory on January 11 for a tour, so I'll be sure to keep everyone posted on current production VIN's.

[TBIRD II]

Even with the holiday shutdown the fact that #8511 has been DELIVERED means that they built it and shipped it before the break. So if the factory was building that number 2-3 weeks ago, they still are a lot further down than I anticipated.

I trust these delivery figures more than the estimates the 800 # gives out because the figures they are giving are still as of 12/13.

I'm an optimist. I'm going to hope to see my #9476 by mid January. [crossing fingers]

Keep in mind that vins can jump around some depending on what color they are doing and what commodies are available not to mention priority codes. The person who posted the message on Yahoo, if I'm not mistaken, is a salesman for Millinax.

 

[RACERROGER]

JODROD, I probably have been very negligent as I never told you about VIN 100650. Blue/Blue Premium was delivered in NY on 8/24. Maybe you never updated the Yahoo website. Just wanted to let you know.

Happy New year.

 

[Gobird]

TBIRD II, I think your build date is the same as mine 1/14. I would like to get mine sooner also but look at it this way. WE ARE A LOT CLOSER THEN WE WERE BACK IN JUNE. I'm sure the wait is worth it.
Just don't want to pick it up in a snow storm!!!

RR,

Had you listed as delivery 8/1 but I am missing your interior color and type. I usually update the Yahoo site about once a week depending on how many mods I have made to the file.

 

[RACERROGER]

JODROD, Blue inserts, Blue hardtop Premium.

I thought the premium created the blue inserts but you're the expert. Are you going on Thunder on 66? Would love to meet you.

Roger

RR - all 4 interiors are available in the premium, ie, full accent, partial accent, black accent and standard black. The only thing that makes the premium really different than the delux are the chrome 7 blade wheels.
