MN SSP Coins
We made these coins because we actually own both of these squads and have restored them to exactly how they were when in use. How do we know that? We contacted numerous technicians that built these SSP's for the Minnesota State Patrol including the head tech. We were able to get the exact equipment used in outfitting these cars. Once we obtained the lights, radio and radar, we tracked down the Troopers that were assigned these two cars. They advised us where the equipment was located. We gutted these cars, pulled and rebuilt the engines and trannys, replaced worn out parts with NOS parts including light blue silicone hoses. We found some law enforcement equipment that still had the State of Minnesota asset tags on them. Minnesota State Patrol provided us with the door shields used on the squads and once all was done being installed, we took them back to the Troopers and they gave us the thumbs up that the cars were exactly as they were when they drove them. It was an honor to have them sign the trunk lid to authenticate them. The SSPs are great companion pieces to the 1983 Gram Fury MSP car
We had the coins made to commemorate these great cars. We also had a round coin made with one Mustang on each side. Let us know if you are interested and we can work out some type of a trade...
