    I am unclear as to when this happened, but logically in 1966, there were Kars built waiting for engines as Ford was having trouble keeping up with production even on standard 289's. Therefore it seems probable that there are Kars out there with engine build dates after the scheduled build date of the Kar. This is pure conjecture on my part but I have heard it enough times over the years that I tend to feel that there is some truth to it. And I did NOT hear it on the internet so maybe it is NOT true at all. : )

    The reason that I mention 1966 as being more likely is that Ford was having such trouble keeping up with 289 production that the came out with, I believe the "Sprint 6 package", probably the wrong name. The salesmen at that time were basically told to "demo the 8 and sell the 6". This was also the year that the Windsor engine plant began producing 289 engines, however all Hipo 289 engines were produced at the Cleveland plant, I am certainly open to discussion on all of this either way, but this is my belief.

    Also keep in mind that scheduled build dates are not carved in stone and are just scheduled dates and not actual production dates. Anything can hold up completing a car so the actual build date definitely can vary.
