- 1971 Boss 351
1971 Mustang Sportsroof
1972 Q Code 4-speed conv.
I figured this out from books and lots of research on the 'net including online magazine articles, the Marti website, and looking at MANY individual cars' Marti reports and invoices on the internet.
For 1971 the Mustang shared the Dearborn, Michigan production line with Mercury Cougars. ----All Boss 351's were built at Dearborn. And I believe all 1971 429 cars were produced at Dearborn as well.
For 1971 some Mustangs were also built in the Metuchen, NJ Assembly Plant up until the 23rd of December 1970. (VINs would begin with "1T" instead of beginning with "1F" like the Dearborn cars) They shared that Metuchen line with Ford Pintos.
For 1972 and 1973 Dearborn produced all the Mustang and Cougars, and then some of the Ford Mavericks and Mercury Comets.
