Is the build date after 8/97? It's a 98.5
Also the power antenna base on the E0 is teardrop shaped, while the E1 is round.
Got a stand alone clock? Probably (but not really definitely AFAIK) a 98.
Now I'm very confused. According to these quotes, I have a 98.5 SE. But I have the Duratec V6 engine (no it's not an SE Sport), stiffer suspension, and standalone clock like the regular 98 SEs have. I have a 24V badge on my trunk, and the sidemarkers say "SE". No side skirts.
Built 11/97 (according to the sticker on the driver's door). I had originally been told the SVT transition date, and that is why I believed I have a 98.
Is mine a unique model (i.e. possibly ordered in 1997, and arrived in late 97)? I do remember someone on this board that has a 98.5 GL because it was ordered. Or do I now have to change my screen name? What do I have?
