09/20/00 smog due 06/22/02

08/28/2000-odometer: 95,674 miles actual mileage
End of data

No mention of CHP like yours.

Toshi,

The mystery continues with your car! Have you run a CARFAX to see where the car was located from 1993-2000? I'm wondering if the ordering dealer never delivered your car to the CHP. Perhaps it was repainted (figuring it was originally delivered as a B&W) and sold retail to John Q. Public? IIRC, there were some 1988 SSP's than ended up going to Saleen instead of the OSP because the dealer ordered too many. That might explain the lack of CHP equipment on your car, and the fact that the DMV records do not show anything in California until 2000.

Bill,

I do have a CARFAX. It reads as follows:

11/10/1992 NICB Vehicle manufactured and shipped to original dealer

12/07/1992 California Motor Vehicle Dept. Title issued or updated First owner reported

02/21/1994 California, Inspection Station, Sacramento,CA Passed emissions inspection

06/21/2000 95,417 miles California, Inspection Station, Bellflower, CA Passed emissions inspection

06/21/2000 California, Motor Vehicle Dept., Stockton, CA Title issued or updated This is the first owner that is shown also on the other report from CA.

So, between November 1992 & June 2000 is a mystery. It collected 95K miles in that time.

Yes, the mystery continues. Too bad the DMV records are incomplete prior to 2000. That would have given you the information you needed about the first owner of your car. The mileage is consistant with other CHP cars though.

I don't know where the cut off period is...but I got my much anticipated reply from the California DMV today:

"The information you requested is out of the department's retention period (too old)."

Attached was my check, returned, un-cashed, along with the application I mailed.

I can't win for losing. Marti Reports couldn't find the Eminger Invoice for my car, either.

Robert seems to be my only hope now to get the assignment card.

*sigh* These '82s are extremely difficult ponies!!

Greg , Stick with it buddy! Remember , that's the fun part..

Keep your fingers crossed on that Assignment Card... :)

Buck tags are all I've got for a pedigree!! Build sheet has also been elusive. Yeah, fingers crossed.

Have you ever though it could be used by the FBI?
I think their cars were stripped down of their information to avoid detection.
