Yeah, I would not put too much trust in the production numbers in that book being totally accurate. Some are way off, some are close, and some are an exact match to what I've seen on Marti Reports.

A pic of when it was being raced and 2 as it sits right now.

Update............
 

:No no:

Got word over the weekend that the 90 SSP that I was looking into got sold.......

NEXT!!!!

That's too bad. Hope you find another SSP soon. :)

Plenty of other fish, or SSPs, in the sea. When it's right, it will happen.

Maybe something like this.........

I know, NOT AN SSP.........

Sent the new owner of the 90 SSP a pm on another site:

Glad to see that you got Tommys old SSP. I was in the starting blocks to get it but the starter misfired the pistol (Never contacted about the sell). I had a resto mod in mind keeping the original color (exterior) and doing a full on sand beige/tan interior.

I have a little advice for you. I had been doing some research on his car and found somehing of interest.

1990 Mustang
LX 5.0 Sedan (P41E): 7,905 (921 of those were Special Service Package)
Of the 7,905, 309 were Medium Cabernet. Out of THAT number, XX or XXX were SSP. I was waiting on the VIN to get a Marti Report to find out exact info as far as where the car was in service, how many of the 309 Medium Cabernet LX’s were in fact SSP models. If I were you, I would look into a Marti Report and hit up one or both of these sites:

You might have something of a rare piece.
Best of luck.

According to Marti Auto, there were 7816 P40E (Mustang 2-dr sedan 5.0L) made in 1990.

The book that info came from (Fox-Body Mustang Recognition Guide) has some incorrect production data in many years, and the body and engine headings are screwed up for LX 5.0L coupe and hatchbacks starting in '90. (The book has P40E as P41E, and P41E as P41F.)

Marti reports don't tell you where an SSP was in service or how many SSP were painted a certain color.

not to be nosy but is this the car you are talking about?

As I recall, that LOOKS like it is the same car...
