CNTLOSE,
Thanks for your interest. Prior to purchasing the car I ran a CARFAX report in April of 2004. CARFAX reported that the vehicle was manufactured and shipped to original dealer on 6/25/1993. Subsequently, title was issued 8/5/1993 and registered as a law enforcement vehicle according to DMV Sacramento, CA. On 4/2/1997 the vehicle passed emissions inspection at a California Inspection Station in Vacaville, CA. CARFAX reported that the mileage reading at the time was 45,563. Anyways, that is why I believe it originated out of NOCAL. CARFAX indicated that on 10/23/2001 a title issued new owner reported with vehicle mileage at or about 118k according to DMV Placerville, CA. My guess is this is when it went out of service and entered civilian hands.
Hope this helps. As I understand the black body moldings are incorrect for a 93 SSP. The car does not appear to have been a black and white. I am no expert but some 1993 CA CHP SSP's were all white with silver 10 hole alloys not black. I am sure you or somebody in the forum can weigh in on that! I bought the car in its current configuration and put wheels on it. Never raced it as I am not a very good driver, and the thing is the fastest motor driven vehicle I have ever been in. I would rap myself around a telephone pole. @ 44 I have learned my limitations of which there are many
Thanks again for looking.
