Ken asked me about the spotlight holes now so prominent on his car. Undoubtably those spots were added after the car left initially left Motor Transport as documented by the famous in-service photo where they are absent. The CHP may have eventually added them or there's also the possibility that they were added after the CHP sold it. Until/unless some kind of hard documentation surfaces, one can only take an educated guess. Mine is that the spots were added by the CHP but at some later point in the car's service life. If you can, try contacting all the previous owners to see if they can "shed some light" on those spots.

Ken also sent along this photo showing the equipment holes he found in the right side of his transmission tunnel:



Comparing them to the more standard hole pattern as found on my car shown below points out the uniqueness of the rack that was mounted on his unit.
