If owning 1 of 20 is good, owning 2 of 20 has got to be better.
Believe it or not, I am now the owner of another Minnesota State Patrol Mustang. Even stranger than now owning 10% of the 20 used here, this one was located 21 miles from my house, is the same color (Dark Shadow Blue Metallic — 7N, original paint) and is one VIN lower (...193410 vs. ...193411). It has 135k miles and is 99% rust free (inside of trunk lid lip is only area in need of immediate attention). On the negative side it has the wrong wheels (but new tires) and the correct spare is gone (cardboard is still there), missing radio, has rattle can paint on valve covers and intake, generic upper radiator hose, and the exhaust from the cats back has been replaced by some Cherry Bombs and turn downs under the car (need the stainless pipes from the mufflers back, which the owner says he can get for me, and is included in the deal). All the numbers match on the body panels, all buck tags are intact, and the State of MN asset number sticker is on the inside of the driver's side A-pillar. The interior is very original and nice with the exception of the dash speaker covers being painted white along with the shifter bezel. The guy I bought it from only had it for 2 months and he got it in trade from the original owner who bought it at auction (1/5/93). The auction buyer wanted to buy a $3,300 4-wheeler, but had no cash so he traded the SSP straight-up. This car had been on Craigslist since October 20th and I just happened across it today when I was looking for some used Mustang wheels. Opportunity knocked and I answered! I will have my own pictures tomorrow. :danceban:
