XR4Ti Production pics

[Steve Saxty]

I grabbed a bunch of XR4Ti production shots that I'm sharing on Facebook and here on this forum. I asked Club members if they would like one of the remaining copies of my book 0 I keep them in NYC so you get postage for $5 instead of $23 from the UK.

People got very enthusiastic and there is just one Collector's Edition left now and five Standard Ed, If you want to read samples and order https://www.stevesaxty.com/us-samples.

Meanwhile, enjoy the pics and I'll post all 14 when I get time!

Imagine having a video of that assembly line... That would have been so interesting to see. Amazing photos too.

Steve, Do you happen to have production numbers for the Merkur XR4Ti ?
There is a lot of conflicting information floating around...

42,464 reported here on the MCA: http://merkurclub.net/History_5_Facts.htm

42,372 cited in a Motor Trend article here: https://www.motortrend.com/news/1985-19 ... ers-guide/

The 42,464 are referred to as "sold" and the 42,372 are referred to as "imported". Seems it would be difficult for Ford to sell 92 more than were imported.

...Seems it would be difficult for Ford to sell 92 more than were imported.

Wonder if those 92 cars were destined for other markets?
