http://www.foureyedpride.com/fep_bild/album60?page=1

Maybe, i missed this before,but,where in Mexico were these
cars assembled ??
Also,in the article (that's in Spanish) The SVO pictured has the
traditional SVO front nose hood and sail panels. But, the two cars pictured
(the red and black) have the mustang front nose ???

Have any more info on these car ???

I believe that's the quest that we as a site are trying to find out...more info. They really seem to be a mystery.

And then for those who haven't seen it but are now reading this thread: http://foureyedpride.com/fep_bild/album60?page=1

There were Mexican Mustangs that were:

Coupes with Capri noses
Capri bodies with Mustang noses
Capri bodies with Capri noses

Still don't have a clue about what their rules or reasoning were for that.

Hi Fred,
The cars where all built in the Ford plant in Cuatitlan Izcalli. The SVO noses could be ordered from the factory as well as the Foureyed noses. When my father bought the car it was ordered with the GT350 nose he said it looked meaner ;). There are a lot of things that went on at Ford during that year so there where many different things installed on these SVO's since these where the end of Mustang production in Mexico.
