I scanned 2 local articles about how production of the 05 Stang started at AAI.

It's from Sept 15th edition of the News Herald. I haven't even read it yet... just hurried up and scanned it To read them better... save them and read them off of your computer.. or print them out





Edit -- I already see some "small" mistakes in the article.. mostly spelling and location haha Gorno Ford isn't in Southgate

 

Great article.

 

Great article, even if they didn't use spell check

 

Thank you very much for grabbing this and sharing with us all!

 

great article amy. thanks for the scans.

 

Thanks for the article Amy

 

I think the prodo numbers are a little bit off

 

Thanks, I love reading new things about the 05.

 

I hope so... otherwise we'll have a fiasco like "tickle me elmo"

 

The production number is about correct.

Annual volume will be 150,000 cars/year (677 days/day)

 

Great Article. Thanks Amy!

 

Nice article. They'd have to sell 26,565 base GT's to recoupe the 644mil they spent at AAI...doesn't seem like that'd be a problem lol

 

Best thing Ford ever did was have the AAI workers driving the pre-production mules at the Downriver Cruise (and later at the Woodward Dream Cruise). It was amazing seeing all of them and how many people were flocking to them. It was a huge hit at the cruise. And the extra bonus is that it's being built in the Downriver area... one of America's best known icon... right here. Detroit and Michigan is known for it's pride.. and it was felt then. Best advertisement ever!!

 

Hey I noticed that article said they would begin shipping this month.

Thanks for posting Amy, excellent read!!
