Sorry I initially missed this post, can someone bring me up to speed why this info seems valid and not just some rumor being spread on the internet?
I'll admit that as a current R owner, I wouldn't mind if they stopped production of the car.

Your crazy! First the Mustang would habe to loose a lot of weight. And I mean 700+ lbs. Good luck with that.

This would not be a Mustang. To each his own though.

Beware of idiots
Again, the 2019 My 350 is a band aid. Unless the best kept 500 secret is about to be sprung.

Yes, from the windshield forward the front fenders, hood and bumper assembly are all unique to the GT350/R's and are not interchangeable with a Mustang GT.

I admit I'm not knowledgeable on this subject, but the engineer in me would think the under-structure of both the GT and 350 would be the same. That if you stripped off the fenders, hood, radiator support, and other bolt ons, they could be swapped? I wonder if this has been tried?

Based on the info we currently have at hand, what is the level of confidence (high, med, low) that there will be a 2019 GT350 production run? If confidence is high, what is the best estimate as to when they will announce a 2019 GT350 production run?

Last year it was around March, wasn't it? Someone that works at a dealership showed us the ford letter asking if they wanted to pay into the program in order to get GT350's for that year. I'd expect about the same this next go round.

The body comprises most of that, and are obviously identical. The rad support is CFRP, and is alot closer than most people think. Build fixtures and the assembly process want to be a similar as possible.
I think you could get away with fenders & fender brackets, hood, fascia components.
Most of the ~ 60mm of drop is the hood, and leading fascia profile changes.
Most of the difference in the fenders is the cowl sweep. I'll upload some pictures later of GT350 fenders on my GT.
