Lots of them came with fairly large gaps between the front fenders and doors, on one side or the other, mine included. On mine, ( 1994 GT ) there is a large, uneven gap on the passenger side. I saw the same, on a brand new 1998 Mustang GT, that I test drove, and was thinking about buying, so it's something that didn't improve over time. Some were arrow straight, others were not. The reasons for which, maybe no one knows ??? Maybe some of these were built on Monday mornings, when half the staff were dealing with hangovers ?????

My '98 Mustang (V6 5 speed) has a steel hood, not plastic. There is a huge design problem with the undercarriage of the SN95 Mustang. They did not actually use any structural steel on the underbody. The whole bottom of the car is made of the same gauge steel as the body. No heavier frame rails anywhere. This makes the Mustang not only VERY flexible, but there are no lifting points under the car. No matter where you lift the car from, you are going to bend something, the only exceptions being the rear axle and the front lower control arms. Even the K member that supports the engine is made of thin sheet metal. This is basically a carryover from the Fox platform, without a doubt the worst design Ford has ever used. Many different models have used this platform, and they all have the same problems.
