This question in one form or another has come up quite a bit recently Pmarkm. Here's a sit with some production info on your 1985 vert. It says your stang has 15,110 close cousins (convertible produced that year) but I haven't found any sources for production numbers listed by engine. I can conform that your 302 was the last V8 in Mustangs with a carb although a 4 cylinder engine was offered with a carb a bit longer. If yours is dark sage in color I believe there were only 5 of those produced according to one site. Your car has some collectors value based on it's low production numbers no doubt, but that's rarely the first issue with most buyers. Here's the site I was referring to (http://bradbarnett.net/mustangs/timeline/79-86/85/index.htm) but for more infor I suggest you call Pat at Mid-Country Mustang in Uwchland, PA. The toll free number is 1-800-358-8081. The man knows his Mustangs and you should get an earful and have some fun too. Good luck!
