So while I was attending the
Faulkner police car cruise last night, I had the opportunity to speak with a retired Maryland State Police Trooper, who was there to help with the driving duties of one of the several tasty Maryland State Police vehicles on display. He informs me that Maryland actually bought SSP Mustangs, which was news to me. He said that they bought roughly 50 SSPs in 1989. These were not used as patrol vehicles, but instead by detectives and other officers. He was certain of the year, but said the number could have been less than 50, as he remembered it.
Soooooo, it appears as though there is a batch of 1989 Maryland SSPs that are yet to be found.
Looking at our VIN Project, there are quite a few possibilities:
-40 VINs starting at 136342
-83 @ 191970
-50 @ 220499
-65 @ 224093
-61 @ 230502
150 @ 238561
100 @ 242294
-46 @ 264885
-43 @ 271841
-39 @ 283972
I think a little time spent researching VIN histories has the potential to identify a block of previously unknown SSPs. We can then order a Marti Report(s) to confirm them as such. How cool would THAT be!?!?!
