1989 Poss. Minnesota SSP Roller Craigslist
 

Found on Craigslist: arpin, wi.

I have 2 fox body lx mustangs im parting out. The blue one is about a 1990. It is a v-8 auto car. engine and trans available. I dont know the condition but the engine does turn. The other one is a 1989. It was a v-8 auto. no engine or trans. It was a minnesota police car. It has the ssp ( special service package). A couple of good parts left on it. Email, call, or text. (715)207-8638. thanks

Poor car. :No no:

Bernie, it should "Buff Out" :D but you may want to pack a lunch.

Contacted seller. Does not have title for Minnesota car. Not much left of car. Trying to get up there to look at it. Will call him again tomorrow to try and set up a time. Doug

Thanks Doug. I've have a little more than 1/3 of the Minnesota SSP VIN #'s documented so if you could take a picture of the Door Sticker w/the VIN and options for me that would be a great help. Also if it has the Buck Tags I'd appreciate a photo of them as well. Will hopefully be able to document the VIN's to all 20 eventually. Thank you.

Were all Minn. cars blue or were there other colors used? By the looks of the pics this one was white originally. The radiator support and where mouldings have been removed shows white. Doug

Doug - They have multiple colors. I'm aware of Dark Shadow Blue Metallic; Bright Regatta Blue; Bright Red (I believe this was the shade of red) and a burgundy color guessing Medium Cabernet was the name (??). I haven't head about white, but it's possible since they used various colors. Maybe another member here will know.

Were you able to see it and if so did it have the Ford door tag still? The left side of the dash also was where the MSHP put an inventory sticker but I'm guessing it would be long gone from the car.

I tried calling him again today but he didn't answer. Tried several times. Will try again tomorrow. If I can connect with him & agree on a price I'm going to pick it up. Doug

Finally got ahold of seller. Going to look at it tomorrow, may end up with both of them. Will keep you posted. Doug

First of all, thanks Jack for posting the Craigslist ad for this car. I went and looked at the car. The guy that has it now got the cars in their present condition. He originally got it to use for circle track racing. He had no idea it was an SSP. When he found out it was, he thought about it differently. This car was in very, very nice shape before someone cut it up. For a car that spent it's entire life in the rust belt, it has very little rust. The buck tags & the door VIN sticker are intact. It says Minnesota on the buck tag along with Special Service Package. It was originally White. I didn't take my camera along because I took my trailer along to bring it back. Well, the wheels on it are from a 4 cyl car and they hit the calipers so it couldn't be moved. I will be going back up there in the next couple days (with a pair of 10 holes) to pick it up. When I get it home, I will post pics of it, the good & the bad. Now, here's the thing. Knowing full well that I am insane, if I can get the title located some how, I will put this car back together. Being 1 of 20 is enough reason. I have all the parts I need in my collection except the certified speedo. It may take a while but I think it is worth it. It won't be concourse by any means, but I believe it will come out nice. Doug
