1983 Idaho SSP
 

Thought I would bring everyone up to date on my 83 Idaho. I have to finish some things yet I took it to a show for display and I want to share how it turned with members.

Car looks great George! Good job.:2thumbs:

WOW!!!!

that is outstanding.

Definitely, the right new owner for such a rare SSP. :2thumbs:

You Know the ISP Idaho State Police had a display a few years ago at the Idaho State
fairgrounds car show
and they had a 40's car a two door 80's C car a vintage Harley
and when i asked about a Mustang they said you know
...........we should have kept one!
Your Car looks great!

Now that SSP is just TOO COOL! :2thumbs:

VERY nice work.

SWEEEEEET !!:yes:
Nice job !

george sent you another pm

Thanks for the compliments everyone. They are encouraging.
Andy, the Troopers I met from Wisconsin said the same thing. I was invited to their retirement gettogether in Aug to show the WI SSP.

Nice car George.I like it!

Love it!!

Great job. And such a unique paint job! I like!

George - That's a great invite! Nice.

Really nice to have that agency represented in the restored fleet now, four-eye too! Great job. :cool:

Somehow I forgot to reply to this thread!

I agree - it's great to have your car represent that agency. Your Idaho SSP looks fantastic!

Thanks everyone. One feels a great pride in his work when he gets such praises and approval from his peers. I know many here have some great looking cars and have put a lot of time and effort and even beyond to restore their SSPs to close to in-service as possible and to share with others here. I am proud to to be a member here.

Looks like a great SSP - congrats on having a unique piece of SSP history!

stuff for George
 

If you do not have this already PM me your address and i will send it your way. The ISP mag contains some information about the Boss is Back program including the number of cars purchased. It also has an ad in the back for the ISP hat. The hat is brand new and doesn't appear to ever have been worn.

This stuff needs to be with your car since mine is an 86. :)

another pic

George has an 83 ISP mustang. Here is another one........... I like George's much better.

In service 86 ISP mustang

Jim,
Do you have these items as I would really like to get them. I'll PM my address to you. I also have a picture of a 86 wrecked and shows a front push bar.

George,

yes I have the hat and trooper mag so I will send them out when I get your address. ISP ran push bumpers on the larger sedans but not on the Mustangs. I have never seen an in service picture of one with a push bumper.

That caprice looks like it was hit by a train. You know it is never good when EMS has to cut the roof off to get at the driver. Hope the trooper survived that one.

Those are pretty cool Jim.

Jim,
E mail sent to you with address.
When I saw the picture, I thought it was a Mustang because of the wheel caps.

i boxed it up and will get to the PO tomorrow while I am working.

thanks Mike. I picked that stuff years ago in the event I might need it. No reason for me to hang on to it since I am done buying cars and my ISP is an 86. I am however countin on George to help me figure out what equipment I need for mine. ;)

When ever you are ready Jim. Will you be going to the PCOOA in Indy July 1,2,3?

no I will not be in Indy. several different reasons why I don't plan on going, the main one is I have to work that weekend and don't want to burn three vacation days.

the stuff went out today so you should have it within a couple days.

Excellent Jim.... Excellent. Now that's what I'm talking about!! :) Somebody please buy my car.

thanks Joe. I just try to emulate you !! :)

Jim,
Got the package and I want to thank you very much for them. I'll be using them in the 83 Idaho at shows. Hope to see you at one of the shows.

excellent George. glad to help. :)
