Alright.... Back from the dead..again!
Just got a Email from a guy at Ford Customer Service Canada who sent my email off regarding production numbers and GT related information to a Ford Senior Archivist.
With this they gave me information on the 866A and 942 order codes, the GT Package.
Also they gave me in PDF Format, Ford Ranger Source Books for 87,88 and 89. All books have information on the GTs which have all colors listed for each model year. Options and Standard Equipment for the GT and which options or features that were added or deleted per model year. Doesnt just include the GT, has all ford ranger models in there as well. But im focusing only on the GT.
Production numbers are still up in the air. They are still digging for the numbers but are having a hard time where its a Option package instead of a trim or model. So production numbers may never be revealed as shorangerbird mentioned earlier.
Stay tuned guys! Still havent given up on this, just takes alot of time doing research! Now off to do some reading

That second gen would look really nice on my trailer, leaving your house and coming to live with me.Figured I’d jump in here. After looking for a long time I finally found 2 GT’s in a week and purchased them both. The 1988 needs some love but is very solid and runs great. The 1989 is perfect with only 27,000 original miles on it, well documented, and was purchased from a member here.
Holy crap I'm so jealous of those and your Fox Body. Do you have any big plans for them? Hint hint V8 swapFigured I’d jump in here.

Looking good. Have you removed the ground effects on the 88 to see how bad the rust is? I have 8 pictures of that '89 with the white Enkei wheels back from around 2004 when it was being offered for sale(before Stu bought it). LMK if you want me to send them. Congrats on the GTs!Figured I’d jump in here. After looking for a long time I finally found 2 GT’s in a week and purchased them both. The 1988 needs some love but is very solid and runs great.

I don’t know how I missed this but yes I would definitely like the pics with the Enkei’s. Thanks!Looking good. Have you removed the ground effects on the 88 to see how bad the rust is?

Good read. I would like info on how to contact them. I was trying to match up my OEM Tri stripes on truck and I noticed it wasn’t an option on my vin tag, but they did come on the truck from what the previous owner said.His site was helpful for the one time I was on it. I cant remember everything he had up there. The site is no longer available which is kind of a bummer.
Ford emailed me back, they gave me all the production numbers for the 89, 88 and 86 model years but unfortunately it was for all ranger models. 4x2 and 4x4. I sent them back another reply in hope that they can dig up a bit more information.
Ill keep you guys posted. If anything is of interest I can copy/paste the information they have sent me.
