New '85 CHP Owner
 

Hey folks, fairly new member to this site and also to the SSP family, scoured the market for the "right deal" and it came in the way of a fellow members "85 CHP, it finally made it's way across many US States and into Canada where it will remain until pretty much my death lol, look for lots of help in answering probably mundane questions that numerous people have asked in the past but based on reading lots of old threads it doesn't matter, the support is huge from all members on here. thanks for the add and too many new memories owning this huge piece of not only Ford history, but also within the CHP history, i know the first thing I have to figure out, how to get a profile pic and proper signature on here lol

Welcome! Tells us more about the car and post up some pics!

Rob - Glad to see you've joined up. Very nice car you landed.

Rob, it is nice to see you here. The pictures you posted on FB are great. For those who do not know, Rob purchased JohnB's 1985 CHP Mustang, which I believe was the first one restored of that vintage. I took the liberty of snatching a post of yours from FB and attaching it here. :)

Wow, beautiful car! Congrats!!

That looks great! What's the Facebook page?

Thanks guys and thanks for posting a pic on here, cause I have no idea how these forum things work, too many buttons I guess.

Yes I purchased John B's car, from what I'm told and read it is quite known in the SSP family, I'm a little different, I'm a fame and attention seeker, why not, I have a nice car...:D

I'm located in Ontario Canada where you DO NOT see these cars, so I bought this car to show, I attend shows and cruises thru out the summer with my '03 Mach 1 but knew I wanted something different, well these SSP's are just that!

you can find me Rob Nadeau, https://www.facebook.com/rob.nadeau.14

Just sent you a friend request. :D

Rob - welcome aboard. John's car is very nice. Saw it at our local show 2 years back. I brought out my 85 as well and was all over John's car taking pictures, gear placement, etc.

As a funny side note - my door keys open up your trunk. Maybe I will use that sometime in the future as part of a prank. Don't ask me how I know that either. :) :)

Yeah John gave me a heads up about the key thing lol

Me too, as "Markus Hagen"

Rob, great looking car!!!

Welcome Aboard !!!
Very Nice SSP you landed !!!!

S W E E T car !! Congrats and welcome !
I have a lot of memories in the 85's !!

Very nice car !

I'm with you there John on that Mustang being a SWEET Car.
It sure would be great to see this car at the Retirees Day at the CHP event in Late Nocember.

Yes it would !! Any chance of getting it there in Sept. Rob ?
Then the next weekend Ripon !! lol

sorry for the tardy reply, never knew there were comments on this post lol, the gentleman from CHP who is organizing it had reached out to me and gave me the invite but unfortunately being a few months away and 3100 miles away I can not possibly swing it...this year...but I'm told it happens every 2 years, and was also told the following weekend is Ripon,

So my plan is for my son and I to drive down, crash at a few CHP SSP guys houses (lol) and take in the retiree show, do the tourist thing the following week, then the Ripon show then head home....started saving my California trip funds
