When I tried to decode the Vin Number on the 1994 Mustang GT i'm thinking of buying in the bit where it says `Vin Check Digit Always 0 - 9' this one is an X, why is it in an X intead of a number?

Are you sure that the 'x' digit isnt the one before the check digit? if it is, it only means that the car is has a 4.6L EFI SOHC V8. if thats not it, them i'm really not sure.

Hey, I found out what that "X" means:

It really doesnt seem to be very important, but it's good to know.
