Thank you for the kind words.
I've been waiting for a while[11/30/12-Deposit[DORA 12/7/12],& now it is schuled on 8/12/13.
Wonder when I can see my MSRP Sticker .Soon I think.
Do you have this site .
Not sure if I have the correct site for Sticker.

I had a build date of 4/1/13 and I could see the window sticker one week before on 3/25.

Seems like some operations at the plant started around July 26 and went from there. My car was built the last week it was open in June - finished close to the last day but didn't "make it out the door" (Original delivery ETA was July 7-14). I followed up a few times and it was marked for transit on June 28th but didn't hit a rail car until the 26th of July - it's due at my dealer sometime this weekend/beginning of next week.

Same story for me same dates etc. and they tell me mine is scheduled for delivery August 6th!:burnout:

The dealer code and order number will be on the VOC and will be needed to track the status of your order.

Once you have received the window sticker look for the blend number at the top of the sticker as reason4treason has stated. Mine is 120130806. From what I have read, it means that the car will be built starting 08-06-2013 as identified in the blend number.

Good for you Joe! From my Scheduled Status Report, I'm scheduled for Tuesday the 13th. That's less than a week away and I still can't pull up my window sticker. :??:

I ordered my Shelby on 5/21/13 and received the order number at the same time and have been checking with Deshya every week or two and yesterday she had the same reply with no vin yet. I checked with my dealer for an update and he said my order was "locked" which he said means it is getting closer to production. I have not heard of anyone here mentioning the termed "locked" does this sound right or is it salesman bs? After following Joeseph's ordering time line I guess I shouldnt be worried yet. Any help or positive reinforcement is appreciated.

"Locked" is a real status, but you should have a build week and Vin if it really is locked.

I've never heard the term "Locked" (not that it means anything). I do know that when I called SVT and gave them the dealer code and order number, they were able to advise me that I had a VIN assigned and gave me the production week as well. They wouldn't tell me the VIN, told me I had to get that from my dealer.

If you have a copy of your DORA, why not give them a call.

I thought the blend date is the date your car is finished, when all the parts are "blended" together. My car was born on the blend date. It is my understanding that it only takes a few days from when they start to build your car until it is finished so either way the cars should be born soon. Congratulations to everyone who are now able to see their window stickers, each step makes it seem more real.

Blend date is the date the chassis is attached to the motor/transmission/axles. Not necessarily the day the car rolls off the assembly line, unless it "blends" early in the morning. Most cars usually spend 3 calendar days on the assembly line. The "blend" date is usually the 2nd day of the 3.

Thanks for the clarification.
