Howman Posted December 5, 2024 Share Posted December 5, 2024 Just received email from Ford on production week (2/24/25) and received VIN! While the production date is further out than I expected, I am glad to receive notice that it has been scheduled and to receive VIN. Now the long wait! 😀 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TPJC1018 Posted December 6, 2024 Share Posted December 6, 2024 My '25 Navigator is the same date. I ordered it on the 1st day. I like you was expecting it to be sooner given production was supposed to be starting on 1/6. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I figured that my user name would spark someone, especially on this forum. Mine is also a '69 R code Mach1 with a 4 speed. Candy Apple Red with dark red interior. Was a work in progress when I bought it in early 2002. Restoration started in late 2012 and finished in spring of 2015. Done by a career body man. I have not the talent nor equipment for such a project. Thanks for asking. More info on yours? Dave.  Just realized that the cover is partially on the car in this photo.

No, haven’t taken delivery yet. Told by Ford that ETA to dealer is between 3/16 and 3/26. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks. We have fun with it. You have 2? You are a glutton for punishment. Mine came with a open 3.50 rear. Toploader is original per the partial vin on the front flange. Block is about 3 months newer than the car so probably a service block as no vin is stamped on it. The Marti report is very informative. The dealer that sold the car new in Oct. 1968 is still in business in Valdosta, GA. They sent two of the dealer plates that they put on cars when they sell them. I cover my Ohio tags with them at shows. Your SCJ is quite the collector piece. Great color also. Fun stuff to drive. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
