To be honest, I just want simple, a HJ bench seat, windowless, Belmont. 202 3 on the tree would do me. The ultimate easy to maintain and useful van.

There were a few 4 on the floor 202 (optioned) Sandman's built but would be so rare now.

This 93' XF van is OK and is quite simple.

Default Re: Production Numbers Thread

Hi I am new to this Forum but not new to the Ford Brand having had a couple of Mustang's and XR6's plus various other Fords over the years.
I am currently looking around for a BA to BF Model Fairlane or LTD or a NF/NL Fairlane or LTD to be used as a weekend cruiser with a view to keep it long term
I have seen a BA LTD and a BF LTD that I have enquired about. I would like to find out how to obtain Production Numbers and also be able to drill down to Production Numbers of particular colours as I am not looking at just White or Silver. One I like is a Dark Metalic Blue which I understand is called Offshore.
Hope someone can point me in the right direction please.
Cheers Greg

Safe to say BA and BF LTD's were not made in great volume by that stage. I only have numbers for the BF series, 279 BF LTD's and 5247 Fairlane Ghia/G8.

If you are looking at a dark blue example, like below, then it will be Blue Pearl, Offshore was a lighter shade of blue.

If that's the car you are looking at, it appears to be in very nice condition. Not a fan of those wheels though. Considering the condition of the leather, I would think the previous owner had seat covers on the thing, they are like new.
