ORG Data ---> Agency Usage
 

With the passing of Mike Riley, the ORG website has not been renewed. Without having the pass code with the hosting company, hobbiests cannot pay the fee on his behalf to put the site back up. The technical information from their forum is likely lost to the ages. There is a way, however, to see some of the pages from the site. With the help of Kevin Marti and Mick from FEP, we were able to pull info from an online archive site (Google "Wayback Machine"). I copied some text and regenerated a new, updated table to identify Agency Usage by State of SSP Mustangs -

There is now a link to it at the bottom of the main page for the VIN Project.

It is interesting to note that the estimated number of SSP Mustangs purchased by Utah Highway Patrol is 521 (again, estimated). That number was determined by adding up consecutive VIN batches with UHP cars (which is not 100% accurate due to several reasons). So UHP is neck & neck with SCHP, who we know based upon unit numbers ordered at least 506 SSP Mustangs. As such, UHP may have been the 4th largest purchaser of SSP Mustangs: CHP=1st; FHP=2nd; and TxDPS=3rd.

Cool stuff!

I changed the agency names into hyperlinks to their respective page here of in-service photos. If you have any photos to add, let me know and we will add them. TIA!
