We'll given the fact that the plant closed for 3 weeks and isn't due to reopen until 4/14 I would say the chances of you getting a car delivered in 4 weeks is impossible. I ordered mine on 2/27 and it is now scheduled to arrive on 5/2 due to the three week shut down.
I would say early June at the earliest. Not trying to be a kill joy just realistic. Many of us here just got bit by the plant shut down.

your build date is 4/14 like mine, have they built it yet?? mine online still says its not done, which would be because the plant is closed until 4/14, my build date.

Great news on your ride!! Dealer just got in touch with me and said my car should be here next week
. They also contacted the rail yard and marked it HOT. We discussed the make ready process and I asked them not to brand my pony
they said no problem just will put a license plate frame on![Thumb](https://themustangsource.com/forums/images/smilies/thumb.gif)

Possibly the best thread on any forum, ever. A Ford rep feeding tidbits of info to a bunch of grown men (and women) acting like 5-year-olds on Christmas Eve. ![Big Grin](https://themustangsource.com/forums/images/smilies/biggrin.gif)
Congrats on the car Toad! I was going to do the same thing (no sticker, just plate frame).

Thanks everyone, sorry for the delay I was up til 2 AM playing with the car and giving it it's first wash. Currently at the dealer having the GT500 axleback installed!
Here it is right off the truck with te raptor it rode with in the background:

Here's how I took delivery, I went through the PDI checklist and crossed off things I didn't want done which included removing any plastic so I drove off the lot with the exterior/interior plastic still on it. Had 5.8 miles at delivery:

Pulled over for a couple pics this morning on the way to the dealer:

Ignore the dark spot, it's crap on my lense:

Love this car and guys - hang in there - it is SOO worth the wait to get it exactly how you want it. I did this car right; I ordered exactly what I wanted, didn't settle, was there when it came off the truck, didn't let them do any cosmetic prep and rode along on the prep test drive. Now I just need to detail and enjoy!

I actually told them no badging, stickers, plates, rivets or drilling of any kind for dealer advertising or otherwise. They told me it's policy to at least put a frame on the plate. I told them they didn't pay me anything for advertising... I said IF they didn't put anything on, I would praise their name and let everyone know how good they are with their customers... My Mustang was unmolested.
They have been great beyond that too! I will go back to them for future purchases. Thanks Dunn-Benson Ford, you guys are awesome!!

Heres a question i have about them being built, not sure if anyone would know. my build date is 4/14/14, the day they reopen the plant on monday. my question is about the body of the car. do they already have some assembled and painted and make that mine to send down the assembly line, or do they have to build it, then put in the paint room, etc, bake the paint on, then later that day it starts to get built and has brand new paint, or how will that work. Do they have some already painted and when my color comes up in line that they did a few weeks ago, they just assign that to mine? was just curious if anyone would know.

I thought convertibles only got the eagle f1's, and all brake pack and track pack cars got Pirelli summers? I prefer Pirelli's to Goodyears so I'm hoping I get PZero's, but interesting to note. On the Ford website they don't specify the brand, just the size and the fact they're summer-only and not all-season.
