My new LSC!!

Picked this up last night for 500 bucks. Very little rust (just a little surface rust around the middle of the drivers door and around the trunklid - otherwise this thing is solid). Couldn't find any V8 birds/cats around so I picked this up. So far it's awesome, the HO is a lot different to drive than my previous Cougars. Of course, it's got it's issues, like power windows aren't working(I can't even hear them), and of course the air ride bleeds down after sitting all night, and I have no power assist in my brakes at all... but she runs great and shifts smooth, and I love the sunroof (which actually works great LOL). It feels really good to be into a fox again.  Anyway, here's the pics....

This is my first Mark. I was actually looking for a Cougar when I saw this on CL. It's a 1987 model.  I would greatly appreciate the emblem. I'll pm you my address.

So how would I know if someone didn't just throw an HO plate on there? I know there is a thread somewhere about decoding a vin.... That should tell me, wouldn't it? And thanks again for the emblem!:bowdown:

I thought "W" was the HO code and "F" is the SO, either way, there is no "F" in my VIN, so hopefully it's a real HO lol.

That's an '86 or '87, and it looks in a lot better shape than mine was for 475. The vin code for the HO those years was M, and it's the 8th digit over.

Well, my vin code is M but my injectors are orange and I have the tubular headers on a stock exhaust. When I was browsing through the autozone website, (I know, not very credible, but helps my argument LOL) they had "M" for HO and "E" for SO I am confused now LOL
