Build number spreadsheet

[a_d_a_m]

This thread (http://mercurymarauder.net/forums/showthread.php?t=83660) had me thinking about build numbers, colors, etc. and who has what car. So I decided to begin a spreadsheet and document build numbers IN ORDER with username and whatever else I can come up with. It might be a little more work than anyone would like, but it sure beats sifting through archived threads to see who's got what!

NOTE: I AM ONLY USING FORD-CERTIFIED BUILD NUMBERS. IF YOU DON'T HAVE CERTIFIED INFORMATION, DON'T POST WHAT YOUR BROTHER'S FRIEND WHO USED TO SWEEP THE FLOORS AT STAP TOLD YOU. :D

This is what I've got so far:
2003 list (https://docs.google.com/spreadsheet/ccc?key=0AkrXA8UnRzIXdHRUUVhYR 3FuN2U2S1NtVW0wcmFTZFE) ||| 2004 list (https://docs.google.com/spreadsheet/ccc?key=0AkrXA8UnRzIXdG5Bc1RXN kdiV3B5UHdaZFpnTmpxT2c)

If you'd like to be added, I'll need the following pieces of information:
build number by year (i.e. if you have a 2004, I need "#455 of 3214")
VIN (complete VIN please, not just the last 6 digits)
Year
300A/B
Ext. color (DTR, DBP, SB, BLK)
Int. color (DC, LF)
Color sequence (i.e. #132 of 7093 black cars)
Build date
Username
misc other information about the car* - heated seats, CD changer, moonroof, Trilogy/Eaton/Vortech, Canadian km/h cluster -- let's keep this very limited, please

*Abbreviations in the misc. columns are as follows:
6CD = 6CD changer
HS = heated seats
MR = moonroof
4A = preproduction car (http://www.mercurymarauder.net/forums/showthread.php?t=29635)


If you'd like to be included, simply respond with all of the requested information in this thread!

If you don't have it...DON'T POST.

[a_d_a_m]

........to be added to it, you MUST HAVE YOUR CERTIFICATE FROM FORD. I will not be using the sequence numbers that we used to use, rather the build numbers straight from the factory.

If you don't have your build number, don't bother responding.

If you do, I will be adding the following info - must match your FORD CERTIFICATE:

build number
VIN
year
A or B

int color
color sequence (i.e. 323 of 328 blues)
build date

And for everyone else, I am using the following abbreviations.

So as you can see I'm not using the Ford stuff. Just easier for everyone involved rather than trying to figure out what DX is.

Unless I am mistaken all '04's are A cars? SOo to speak. A & B were only '03's and then it only appiled to the blacks?

Just trying to help:)

[Bluerauder]

Unless I am mistaken all '04's are A cars? SOo to speak. A & B were only '03's and then it only appiled to the blacks?

Yes and No ^^^^.

All 2004 MMs are 300A because there was only one job in the model year run (but they have "most of" the same features as the 2003 300B models). I say most because of the black valve covers and the underhood lights on some 2003 300Bs.

2003 MM year had two jobs (there was a mid-year change)

2003 300A were the initial production that ran until about October 2002.

Pretty certain that all 2003 300A's were black.

Silver Birch and Blue MMs were added to production beginning in about October 2002.

All 2003 Blue MMs are 300B (No Blues made in 2004). I think all 2003 Silver Birch MMs are also 300B. 2004 SBs are 300A. :D All 2004 DTRs are 300A (No DTRs made in 2003)

2003 Black MMs could be 300A or 300B (and there were some in-betweeners that had a combination of 300A & 300B features). The "Tweeners" have been called "Pre-Decontented" MMs meaning before all the 300A contents were removed (e.g. full sized spare, remote fuel door, map pockets, separate dash clock, etc).

[a_d_a_m]

Thanks to those who've given information so far. You should be on the list if you've responded with information in this thread. Check for accuracy, though I think we're golden.

Just a suggestion, but maybe you can add those cars known to have been totaled as well, if the required info is known. I'll add any Marauder that we know the Ford-certified build number for, even if it isn't owned by anyone anymore. Where the username goes, I can put [totaled] in the owner's column. If a member has sold their car but had a certificate, I can also put that information in similarly, i.e. [last seen in PA] or [sold to non-member in NC].

Unless I am mistaken all '04's are A cars? SOo to speak. A & B were only '03's and then it only appiled to the blacks Honestly I never bothered to learn much about the differences other than map pockets and full-size spares. Either way, with the '04s, I remembered that they were As once you mentioned it. For the sake of accuracy I'd request that this information still be added so I don't forget.

All 2003 Blue MMs are 300B (No Blues made in 2004). I think all 2003 Silver Birch MMs are also 300B. 2004 SBs are 300A. :D All 2004 DTRs are 300A (No DTRs made in 2003)

2003 Black MMs could be 300A or 300B (and there were some in-betweeners that had a combination of 300A & 300B features). The "Tweeners" have been called "Pre-Decontented" MMs meaning before all the 300A contents were removed (e.g. full sized spare, remote fuel door, map pockets, separate dash clock, etc). Thanks for the info - will refer to this when I have a totaled car and am not sure what to classify it as!

I wasnt sure what the difference was so I kind of just assumed since it was made half way through the year.

I checked out your '03/'04 sequence sheets and was thinking the '04's need a column starting with #7839 as that would be the first '04 built. So Ms. Denmarks car would be the 8263 of 11,052. :)

Agreed, any major mod should be listed... That'd include blower, high stall converter, gear swap, non std paint etc...

[a_d_a_m]

Talk about looking a gift horse in the mouth. If you guys are gonna whine (pun intended) until I add them I guess I will do that too. My thinking in adding those was that it was a Marauder-specific limited production (i.e. also numbered) part.

Do your Eatons and Vortechs have a #23 of 424524 on them? I didn't think they did.

[Bigdogjim]

For this spread sheet you only need production numbers, anything other than factory options or color is not needed.

[Mr. Man]

This thread needs to be a Sticky and it might do well to be on the Home Page with a link.

Hopefully a d a m would continue to maintain and update it as needed. Is there some way he could get updates to his PM box when a member enters new information? :twocents:

[a_d_a_m]

A sticky at the top would be more helpful than a bunch of PMs to sift through. Though I don't know if the mods would be interested. I've added what I could so far, but if there is an error or something missing with your car, please respond in this thread. I went through this thread:

...and added most of the info. Some of the 4A/preproduction stuff is really confusing me so I either left it out or wrote "maybe?" in an additional column.




As far as listing mods, listen, I don't want to get in the business of updating a spreadsheet every time someone puts a set of headers on a car, or upgrades their pulley, or changes the damn oil. You guys mod quicker than I'll be able to keep up. I'll list Trilogy, Eaton, Vortech, etc. but anything more minor than an aspiration or displacement change I'll need to hear a convincing argument for. Fair?

[a_d_a_m]

front license plate bracket. Added the HS/6CD. I am leaving the bracket off as most car manufacturers will include this on cars going to states that require front plates; at the very least it's not an option that was likely tracked as "1 of 7553 with front license plate brackets", or an option where people go "ooh, I wish my car had [heated seats, 6CD changer, etc.]"

Man, if you had a DTR, I had a perfect joke. Oh well.

Anyway - I've got this going in Motor City Marauders and CrownVic.net as well. I did find two DEFYANT threads:

http://www.mercurymarauder.net/forums/showthread.php?t=58058

5:31am Eastern Time: I have compiled info from them - though they are not complete by my standards, so the spreadsheets will not reflect all of the information. DEFYANT, if you're tuned in here (I also posted at MCM) - sorry, hadn't seen your threads when I decided to do this and hope you don't feel I'm stepping on your toes.

While doing this, I've found a few cars that raise red flags - either dates/build #s not corresponding (which leads me to believe these are 4A [preproduction] cars or had been sent back for repair during manufacture), cars I believe to be totaled or sold, etc. I have indicated this as best as possible in the I and J columns of my spreadsheet. Pretty self-explanatory when you see it.

Would like to be a part of this list. Please add me..... I'll be happy to add you once I know that the info Brian gave you matches what Ford gave you.

Prior to Ford providing these certificates, Brian was the only way of knowing approximately what build number your car was. This was done by looking at the sequence numbers in the VIN.

Unfortunately due to preproduction cars and stuff, the numbers were not 100% accurate.

For example, my number was 504. When I got the certificate from Ford, I moved to 420.

So please, call the number listed in the first post of this thread and confirm your info (or post here that you've already done it). Once that's done and we have Ford-certified information, I will be sure to add it! :beer:

Sorry for the confusion - I had put it over on one of the other sites but forgot to add it here. Thank you! I copied and pasted it into the original post now, but here it is, straight from RoyLPita's signature:
Call 1-800-FORD-788 and press "1". Have the last 6 of your VIN handy. You will get the numbers for FREE. You'll pay $$$ for the certificate.

Hope this helps!

a_d_a_m:

Just got off the telephone with Ford Performance and gentleman stated that my production number was 1575.

So your right it did change from what was given to me from 1570 to 1575.

Is this enough info that you need to add me to the list????

I plan on ordering the certificate at a later date.

Price of $45 for this certificate is just killing me.....I wanted to ask the gentleman on the phone if it also comes framed.

Take it easy.

[a_d_a_m]

Added. Your car is actually a 300A, as are all 2004 Marauders despite having 2003 300B features. See this post (http://www.mercurymarauder.net/forums/showpost.php?p=1240090&postcount=14) for clarification.

And no, the certificates do not come framed.

Pat's Silver Birch is an '04, so

add 7838 FOR # in 11,052. = 8381 MM produced.

I guess you would add 543 to the total # of '03' Silver Birches to get the number of your Silver Birch overall in the Silver Birch family.

417 seems like a number Bluerauder likes so add 543 to it and Pat's Silver Birch sould be #960 of all Silver Birches. :)

There's even a chance that he might be #960 of 1,414 SB MMs (i.e. 417 ('03) + 543 = 960). I suspect it is as "bolded" above ^^^^^ and reflects his position only in the '04 count.

You are correct. I had forgotten how many SB '03's were built.:o

I like the 960 # and the # of all MM's should be 8381 of 11,052 (7838 + 543 = 8381 :)

[Mr. Man]

I wouldn't worry to much about all the extra stuff for your chart a.d.a.m.. The moonroof should be reflected in the incomplete vin code. The rest of it, not that important. If parts were dealer installed or someone put something on their car in the driveway, not really all that relevant to what you originally set out to do.

Don't let the minutia get out of control. I think the basic premise you came up with originally is sufficient. :)

[a_d_a_m]

Don't let the minutia get out of control. I think the basic premise you came up with originally is sufficient. After thinking about it for a little bit, I'm inclined to agree.

It looks like we might be at a standstill; no responses in over a week!

[Mr. Man]

There are a couple in the carpart thread if you were so inclined to get the vins and call Ford to find out the number. You could also follow along on E-bay, Craigslist etc get the vins and call Ford. This would allow you to fill in your spreadsheet. It really would have to be a labor of love on your part to complete it as best as can be. Some info would be non-existent.

I think RoyalPita was keeping a list as well. Perhaps he would be willing to give you a copy. :)

[HBTMD]

Thanks for the info. It is a very sweet MM. It only has 35,000 miles.

I am the original owner, however, I let my son drive it since it was new. He is now a Law Student at UNLV Boyd School of Law.

I recently bought him a 2012 Challenger SRT8, so I get to drive the MM every few months when I visit him. :banana:

[a_d_a_m]

Gotcha added, HBTMD. Based on what I have on my list your car will have a build date of 2/6/03 or 2/7/03. I am not adding things like SS inserts or braided brake lines. Again, more of just the factory stuff. We've all customized our cars and modded them to our own tastes so I'm not after that. Basically just going for what a Ford certificate would have + a few of the build sheet options.

And you bought your son a Chally SRT8? Got room in your family for one more? I could use a car like that... :D

[HBTMD]

Thanks for the offer Adam, however, the next SRT8 I purchase will be for me. :beer:

[a_d_a_m]

I'll take your Marauder off your hands.

[HBTMD]

Thanks for the kind and generous offer Adam.

However, my wife and I use the MM every time we visit our son in Henderson, NV. In addition, our son needs a less expensive car when he is slumming it in the seedy parts of Vegas, especially near Fremont Street. In that area, the dirt bags don't know a Blk MM from a Metro Police care. They tend to scatter and scurry away (like the vermin they are) when it approaches. :lol:

When can we view the list? Whenever you want! Check the first post on this thread (page 1), there are links there. Or click the links in my signature that say "2003 list" and "2004 list".

[Mr. Man]

Adam have you looked over at MMC.com? They have a list of 03-04 vins. While there is no production number you may be able to generalize where they fit. Also craigslist and those other sites, same thing.:)

[slickster]

wow cmalo has #1???. hi takedown your 10 cars behind me:beer:. now if i can find the car in front or behind me that would be way cool

His profile page says #27 March 12 2002.

[a_d_a_m]

Adam have you looked over at MMC.com? They have a list of 03-04 vins. Can you link me? I do not see it...unless I'm blind. I assume you mean MCM.com?

His profile page says #27 March 12 2002. Over at Motor City Marauders there was question as to whether or not his was first, with such an early build date the thinking was that this car "is" the first Marauder but that it was a press car, and that after it made its rounds, it was shipped back, refurbished, and then sold 'new'. I have no idea what Ford actually ranks him but with that build date, I have to believe that car is the first one technically built.

Think about it. If he was #27 (as in the 27th actual car to roll off of STAP) he would have to be built AFTER May 27th.

#30 is one of those preproduction cars, so I guess cmalo technically probably IS #27. That's one of those Marauder Mysteries I haven't quite solved yet, but it's in the back of my skull to figure out what the rule is.

Maybe a call to Ford is in order.

Look in the our members list page 4 in "C" for cmalo. His vin 600045.

[a_d_a_m]

I'll have to check that out. I completely forgot about that site.

I guess when it comes to cmalo and the other preproduction cars, I will probably just put them on the list wherever FORD says they're supposed to be. I.E. if Ford says they belong in a different place further down the list, so be it. Then I can just mark in another column that the car was likely preproduction.

Idunno. Haven't decided yet...

All,

My son now owns the oldest Marauder in the club. I sold it to him in 2006 or so (working from memory here). It's in my garage as I write this and is still in beautiful condition. - never been hit or abused (except for a few 1/4 mile passes) . He does have a certificate from Ford - which I will get a copy of and post here. I'll get some current pictures as well.

The VIN and build date are listed below from the club's spreadsheet.

2MEHM75V73X600045, 2003, 300A, BLK, DC1/7093, 3/12/2002, cmalo

As you can see, the VIN ends in 60045. There was some question early on whether the VINs were sequential. I think it's been found they are. When I bought the car (in CY 2004 I think) I began to notice things like the Red 4PP tags on the frame (he still has those). Also - they early cars have different exhaust baffles and some other small differences. Ford Motor Company certified it as the real McCoy. We have the history of the car from Roy L. Pita and Carfax. Ford owned the car for the first 5,990 miles then sold it. It's a family keeper.

I attached a few documents. 1 is a picture of me driving the car at Milan dragway (Milan, Michigan), the others are summaries of information I have on file.

Chuck,
Thanks for chiming in on this. I am going to leave your car at #1 of all '03-'04 Marauders produced, and leave a link in my spreadsheet that goes back to your post in this thread.

Very cool info, by the way! Glad to hear that the car is still in the family.

{ORIGINAL POST DELETED/EDITED!}
Thanks to the mods for making this a sticky, and thanks to all who are participating.

This thread (http://mercurymarauder.net/forums/showthread.php?t=83660) had me thinking about build numbers, colors, etc. and who has what car. So I decided to begin a spreadsheet and document build numbers IN ORDER with username and whatever else I can come up with. It might be a little more work than anyone would like, but it sure beats sifting through archived threads to see who's got what!

NOTE: I AM ONLY USING FORD-CERTIFIED BUILD NUMBERS. IF YOU DON'T HAVE A CERTIFICATE, YOU CAN CALL FORD AND GET YOUR BUILD INFORMATION. IF YOU HAVEN'T DONE EITHER OF THESE THINGS, DON'T BOTHER RESPONDING. RoyLPita sez "Call 1-800-FORD-788 and press "1". Have the last 6 of your VIN handy. You will get the numbers for FREE. You'll pay $$$ for the certificate."

This is what I've got so far:
2003 list (https://docs.google.com/spreadsheet/ccc?key=0AkrXA8UnRzIXdHRUUVhYR 3FuN2U2S1NtVW0wcmFTZFE) ||| 2004 list (https://docs.google.com/spreadsheet/ccc?key=0AkrXA8UnRzIXdG5Bc1RXN kdiV3B5UHdaZFpnTmpxT2c)

If you'd like to be added, I'll need the following pieces of information:
build number by year (i.e. if you have a 2004, I need "#455 of 3214")
VIN (complete VIN please, not just the last 6 digits)
Year
300A/B
Ext. color (DTR, DBP, SB, BLK)
Int. color (DC, LF)
Color sequence (i.e. #132 of 7093 black cars)
Build date
Username
misc other information about the car* - heated seats, CD changer, moonroof, Trilogy/Eaton/Vortech, Canadian km/h cluster -- let's keep this very limited, please

*Abbreviations in the misc. columns are as follows:
6CD = 6CD changer
HS = heated seats
MR = moonroof
4A = preproduction car (http://www.mercurymarauder.net/forums/showthread.php?t=29635)


If you'd like to be included, simply respond with all of the requested information in this thread!

Without build numbers, I can't really put it in the spreadsheet as far as build/sequence numbers. And I really don't have the time to spend hours on the phone with Ford begging for this information.

What I could do is create another spreadsheet with VIN numbers for totaled MMs...


I someone has an Email address I have about 2 or three years worth of wrecked MM's in a Word document that were sent to the wrecking yards. PM incoming; not sure if I will tackle this project anytime soon, but I'll take the info for now...

Thanks for continuing to do this for us.

Could you take the VINs with no known build# and insert them into the spreadsheet where they might fall in the build order - Using the existing VINs?

There are large gaps/rows where the VINs could just be tracked. If a member gets a certificate that takes the row, just shift the unknown build # VIN to another row: higher or lower.

I occurred to me that all VINs could be tracked in one spreadsheet this way.

Your call.

Thanks again,

Mark

I could help with the tracking, if you'd like.

Unfortunately vin #'s are not chronological. They should though put you in the ballpark.

Understood. Just for tracking. Big gaps in that thar spreadsheet.

[STEPS]

just wondering when will the spread sheet come out ????????????????/

[a_d_a_m]

As already stated, VIN numbers are not chronological. This is partly due to the fact that certain cars are removed from the line and repaired prior to release. I witnessed this firsthand at the STAP 2010 and STAP 2011 tours; cars with body defects would come off of the line and be sent back for correction. Therefore, the 'built' date is not actually chronological with regards to the VIN, which as far as I am aware is assigned on the first day the car starts being built. I.E. my Marauder's VIN was assigned probably in late May '02.

I think, at this point, that the best idea is to keep a completely separate spreadsheet of all of the totaled Marauders (and there are a TON of them). I would hate to input data on all of the totaled Marauders into the existing spreadsheets, only to cause confusion later down the line with regards to how certain VIN numbers got plugged into certain places. Then again, I haven't seen the info on all the totaled cars yet...

My end goal with this project is to keep going with the Ford-certified build numbers for as long as I am a member here. Hopefully new members will share their VIN data so we can make the most comprehensive list possible.

Doing it this way does not require much assistance, but I may investigate giving 'permissions' to those who wish to have editing privileges. At this point, I do not know how to do that without sharing my e-mail password with people - that ain't gonna fly! :lol:


I guess what I'm saying with regards to all of this is that I need some time to think about how I want to proceed. Discussion is certainly okay, but don't expect this to be a super huge priority for me. As far as I'm concerned, they're not making any more Marauders, and I've got other crap to worry about on a day to day basis. Cool? Cool.


just wondering when will the spread sheet come out ????????????????/ It is out! Check the links in my signature. There is a separate list for 2003 and 2004 cars. There are large gaps in it, because we are sampling a small portion of the Marauder-owning public. The goal is to slowly fill the list up.

You can set up the file on Gmail drive and allow select people to have access to it. To make changes and stuff. They would be owners. Everyone else would just be viewers.

Just a suggestion

[a_d_a_m]

Good to know - will keep it in mind. At this point, I think I'm keeping up with what's available to me.

Will re-evaluate once I see the 'totaled' list.

[Jeronimojc]

Could you say what interior colors came with each? He likes to put that in his spreadsheet. If you know what # out of what # they were that helps him as well. :)

All interiors are charcoal. The first two were 300A and the last one was 300B. That's all I know.

[VMARAUDER]

Are all 2004's 300A's?

[Bluerauder]

Are all 2004's 300A's?

Yes, because there was only one "job" in 2004 they are all 300As (i.e. no model changes in mid-year). In 2003 there were two "jobs" because of the switchover to the "De-Contented" version that added traction control and removed some stuff to pay the bill.

Just keep in mind that the 2004 MMs have the same features as the 2003 300B MMs as far as donut spare, traction control, manual fuel door, etc.

Short version 2004 300A = 2003 300B contents.

what is the difference in a 300A - 300B?







I guess I am a 300A

[Bluerauder]

I guess I am a 300A

The 300A or 300B distinction is irrelevant for the 2004 MM. It is just sufficient to say that you have an '04 Marauder. The A vs. B discussion is only meaningful when discussing the 2003 MMs.

[a_d_a_m]

2004 MMs have the same features as the 2003 300B MMs as far as donut spare, traction control, manual fuel door, etc.

Short version 2004 300A = 2003 300B contents. I remember being confused about this myself when I started the project.

Thanks to the mods for making this a sticky, and thanks to all who are participating.

This thread (http://mercurymarauder.net/forums/showthread.php?t=83660) had me thinking about build numbers, colors, etc. and who has what car. So I decided to begin a spreadsheet and document build numbers IN ORDER with username and whatever else I can come up with. It might be a little more work than anyone would like, but it sure beats sifting through archived threads to see who's got what!

NOTE: I AM ONLY USING FORD-CERTIFIED BUILD NUMBERS. IF YOU DON'T HAVE A CERTIFICATE, YOU CAN CALL FORD AND GET YOUR BUILD INFORMATION. IF YOU HAVEN'T DONE EITHER OF THESE THINGS, DON'T BOTHER RESPONDING. RoyLPita sez "Call 1-800-FORD-788 and press "1". Have the last 6 of your VIN handy. You will get the numbers for FREE. You'll pay $$$ for the certificate."

This is what I've got so far:
2003 list (https://docs.google.com/spreadsheet/ccc?key=0AkrXA8UnRzIXdHRUUVhYR 3FuN2U2S1NtVW0wcmFTZFE) ||| 2004 list (https://docs.google.com/spreadsheet/ccc?key=0AkrXA8UnRzIXdG5Bc1RXN kdiV3B5UHdaZFpnTmpxT2c)

If you'd like to be added, I'll need the following pieces of information:
build number by year (i.e. if you have a 2004, I need "#455 of 3214")
VIN (complete VIN please, not just the last 6 digits)
Year
300A/B
Ext. color (DTR, DBP, SB, BLK)
Int. color (DC, LF)

Build date
Username
misc other information about the car* - heated seats, CD changer, moonroof, Trilogy/Eaton/Vortech, Canadian km/h cluster -- let's keep this very limited, please

*Abbreviations in the misc. columns are as follows:

By the way, I sent the info a while ago but haven't seen it updated in the list yet. You need it again? That's weird. I distinctly remember putting it in but for some reason it didn't take. I must have forgotten to hit 'save'.

If you could be so kind. PM is fine, or post here.
