FORD FOX PLATFORM

The 'Ford Fox platform' was a rear wheel drive, unibody automobile architecture that Ford used for 15 years in the North American market. It was designed to be relatively lightweight and simple, in keeping with the general downsizing of Detroit designs in the late 1970s.
Its initial appearance was in the compact car class, when the Ford Fairmont and Mercury Zephyr appeared in 1978. Eventually, a wide range of Ford models in several market segments would be built off it, with multiple bodystyles and powertrains.

The Ford Fox Mustang was redesigned in 1994 under the program code name 'SN-95'. This version was wider and many parts were redesigned. The Fox saw gradually decreasing use as more Ford products went to front wheel drive. It finally ended production with the last 2004 Mustang. This platform was replaced for the 2005 Mustang (code named 'S-197'), with the new Ford D2C platform.
