VIN identification please

You won't find that info in the VIN. Check the sticker on the driver's side door jamb. The code under "AX" will tell you the rearend. The rearend codes might be posted on here somewhere. Most 94-95 LX v8's came with the 3.08 I believe. There used to be a website that had all of the color codes, but I can't find it anymore.
 
Rear gears

The 4.6 v8 LX T-Birds came with 3.08 rear gears except california models which came with 3.27's. I have seen color codes somewhere on this site.
Check the SC Literature page (link on front page).

9th digit should be a '2' rather than a 'Z', then I got it to come up in the Ford parts catalogue.

Colour is paint code 'PA', deep emerald green. Also referred to as deep jewel green I believe. Axle tag is 510D, it's a 3.08 ratio as Bill mentioned.

Thanks Ed, youre always quite helpful with things. And Ive always admired your car as well! Is there any way to tell if its a locking rear end?

Here are the codes listed under "AX" on the door jamb tag.
 
Hmm I'll have to check it this weekend when I pick it up. With my luck it'll be an open dif but I want to put 3.27s in it anyway.
