Hello,
I have just purchased a used 1988 Mustang GT. I'm having a problem
understanding some parts of the VIN code. The seller said that the
car was a "GT40" but I can't find any reference to that in any of
my Mustang reference books. The VIN is 1FABP42E7JF233253. The VIN
says GT 3 door coupe but the engine code of E doesn't show in any
of my reference books. I called the Ford hot line and they said
that an 1988 E code was a 5.0 HO EFI 302ci gas V8. They also said
all records at ford are purged after 10 years and the 1988 records
are gone. Do you have any information on a "GT40" kit, RPQ, Engine
set, etc., or any information about an 1988 engine code of E?
