I know of a CHP that recently sold. Coincidence?

Hector ssp91ssp...I think that CHP is a 91 as well. I have a nice 91 if that's your year;) ! Congrats on the addition...which one does your wife get?

Turns out the transport truck had some issues !! So, i find out last night on my own that the guy dropped my car off at a storage yard 4hrs from here and never called me !!
You wanna talk about being pissed off all of last night ! after i payed permium $$$ for the delivery , at least keep the cust posted ! Right ??? I told the transport company it Better be here today or i want half my money back and i'll rent a trailer and go n get it the rest of the way .. It gets better guys , I got lucky and found a trooper plate for my car on CL and had it shipped to my house , some dip shit plowed my mail box down with a trailer !!! dam it !! and yes the plate is now damaged . what luck ! ssp91ssp |
Yikes! If you didn't have bad luck, maybe no luck at all? Of course having a new SSP arrive is lots of fun and good luck any way it happens, so that is a good think. :yes:
Looking forward to hearing more about the car. |
It's Here !
Picked up the Stallion just a bit ago .
It's a white 88 Colorado State patrol SSP .lots of documets on this one . the car is in super staright O rust condition , all orig panels ,paint exept the roof possibly from the light bar ?? Unit# 246, still has it's roll bar but no padding .the interior looks like day 1 other than the typical driver seat wear n tear, the carpet even has a shiny look to it . As per previous owner , his wife drag raced the car and before that his buddy's wife raced it also.. It wears some racing components to show its past life which will be put back to ssp stock componets little by little . more info and updated pics later next week after a good scrub! the following pics are while still in Colorado. http://i558.photobucket.com/albums/s...4/DSC_2694.jpg http://i558.photobucket.com/albums/s...4/DSC_2706.jpg http://i558.photobucket.com/albums/s...4/DSC_2688.jpg http://i558.photobucket.com/albums/s...4/DSC_2689.jpg ssp91ssp http://s558.photobucket.com/albums/ss28/alvar4/ more pics here . |
Congrats on the find. Are you removing the roll bar as well? It looks like it won't take much to return it back to stock.
|
Congratulations Hector :thumbsup:.
|
Hector...excellent find bro. Awesome it still has the original CSP roll bar in it.
awesome car !! :2thumbs: |

thanks to all and sorry about the long wait on what my find was .. as of this am it already has it's 10 hole wheels on it ...Here we go !!! ssp91ssp |
|
Very nice car Hector ! ! !
|
Looks Great! :)
I always enjoy reading stories. about anticipation Fear and relief.AKA WAITING for the transport company to arrive. Have Fun with the new ride. |
Just a note of caution to folks...I picked up several Trojan viruses during the course of viewing the pics @ the link provided. I'm in the process of trying to remove them from my computer. I have good up to date virus software so should be ok but I know others don't always keep current on that software. I'm not very knowledgable about how all this happens but wanted to give a courtesy "heads-up" to others.
|
Hector,
Congrats on the purchase...nice car with great documentation. Mike, Thanks for posting that info up. I googled it and it seems to be a problem for Photobucket (I'm not computer savvy enough to know how you can get a virus from downloading a .jpg, but I know I don't want one). |
Hector, congrats on the car my friend! ;)
|
thanks all ! the car is already a ton of fun ..as we looked it over at work in the air we noticed that you can still see the police decal outline on both doors , nice proof of original paint .. all but the roof as far as i can tell.
the paint is oxidated some so the same guy that did my USPS car will do his magic . Mr Evil , should we delete the link on my post ??? I hate to cause a comp issue for someone . sorry guys ! i hope you guys got to see the inservice pic on my photobucket , take a look at the roll bars in both cars and the 3rd car behind those two ... sweet pic !! ssp91ssp |
|
Looks great Hector! A Colorado car is a nice find! There's one by me, but a previous owner sadly removed its SSP identity to the point that it'll never be restored (but it'll blaze the 1/4 mile in 10seconds).
But I digress. Congrats on the new SSP! Bringing a new one home is an exciting time, so enjoy yourself. :) |
lic plate # ??
guys is it safe to say that this was the in service plate # ?
looking to order a set of replica plates and came across this document this morning . looks like REL456 , if it is the plate # i kinda figured it would have the unit # on there ???? HELP ! any ideas ? or is it part of a driver lic # ?? ssp91ssp http://i558.photobucket.com/albums/s...0221001020.jpg |

I noticed the 68k mileage amount. Do you know at what miles they ended the in-service life of this Mustang? Can you tell whether that document was from when the State Police still owned it or after it went to a civilian owner?
The link below will allow you to look up varoius State Trooper license plates. http://www.statetrooperplates.com/sp-hp.htm Is the in-service picture you had on Photobucket that actual car or just an example of a CO one in-service? I don't know much about the Colorado cars but didn't notice a plate number like your document on the link above. Not sure if they had unmarked cars or not and whether would have had diff't license plate configuration. |

That's probably the first plate that was on the car after it sold at auction. Your in-service plate was the car's unit number. http://www.specialservicemustang.net...CSP/90CSP4.jpg http://www.specialservicemustang.net...CSP/90CSP4.jpg |

looks like the State last smoged the car i 91 at 90k miles and then went to auction. As far as what plate belongs on the car and what it looked like this is what i found on statetrooperplates for a mustang up to 1989. The above in service plate pic may of been up to a 93 mustang ..??? http://i558.photobucket.com/albums/ss28/alvar4/HSP.gif the #10 prefix -designation of the Colorado Dept Of Highways the last digits were the Unit # as stated by Mike .. thanks guys . this history stuff is fun . the above plate i found on CL in Colorado a week ago and purchased it . ssp91ssp |
MOstang ,
The in service pic on the photobucket was given to me by the previous owner , i don't think it's my car .? just because it has the newer CSP lic plate ???? ssp91ssp |
Roll Bar pics of CSP

driver door mounting holes ????
Take a look at the mounting holes on driver's door of my CSP ...
It's got 5 mounting holes for something ??? I have seen pics of older ssp's that had a shotgun mounted there ??? my paper work states this car had a shotgun mounted . any ideas ???? the length of the holes is too long for a club i think ?? it measures 28" from the 1st to last hole . Mr Drama , is your driver panel on the CSP the same way ? any ideas ? http://i558.photobucket.com/albums/s...101_4004-1.jpg http://i558.photobucket.com/albums/s...4/101_4005.jpg ssp91ssp |
Hector,
My car did not have the original door panels in it when I bought it. I have the correct interior to go back in it but nothing original so I have no idea what was mounted there. |
Hector - I'm certainly not an expert on the CSP cars, but was thinking same as you were...shotgun rack. The MSHP in some instances had brackets they customized and installed in that general location within the SSP's. Hopefully someone else will be able to provide some solid info.
