Hey!! I know those guys!!! And thats my area!!! Thank God I didn't shoot those pics!!!! Those are removeable covers and the Mustangs are blue, the mazdas' are black and gray. They cover the fenders, quarters, and doorsills to protect the paint. Did anyone notice the doors? I was amazed also, we didn't remove the doors at my old plant. I guess they do it allover here because everyone else seems to think its normal to have a doorline to build them up on.

I don't remember exactly what the reason things are done this way at AAI other than to save space.

There was an article that said AAI was unique for a FoMoCo assembly plant in that the doors were removed to run down the line and then put back on at the end of the line.

it actually isn't exclusive to AAI, a lot of car companies have adopted this practice. It is used on the Magnum and 300 as well.
It makes it easier to put the glass/power window goodies in the doors, in addition to the door panels.
It also makes it a lot less unobtrusive to get into the interior of the car. Imagine how much easier it is to put in the dash, carpet and seats without doors in the way.

I think Brad has a whole stash of great pics hidden. He's releasing them to us slowly and steadily till his Detroit bash; it's like an IV Drip of Mustang Information to keep us alive and hopefully each day!

The unit number is 100051; it's an early build.

If so, anybody on here, or one of the other boards have this VIN assigned to their pre-order?
Or is it too low and this is one deisgnated to be one of the two each dealer gets.
