Pennsylvania State Police Mustangs

The 140 Speedo doesn't look factory, and doesn't have the verified calibration label. Haven't seen any ssp evidence, but that doesn't mean an agency couldn't have used it

He already stated that it wasn't used in-service and had 3k miles on it when they purchased it.

But the owners question is whether or not it's a SSP, not if it was used in service.

No, you mentioned service. I was just replying to your comment.

Lets backtrack:

I had seen Fred Johnson listed as owning a 1985 Ford Mustang PSP SSP here:

http://www.sspmustang.org/ssmoa/SSMOA_Members.htm

I tracked him down and contacted and have been trying to get info.

His son Clay contacted me this pass week with this:

Hi Jim,

I wanted to get back to you regarding some of the questions that you
have asked my dad since he does not have the time or energy to invest
right now. I have taken over the vehicle and am trying to gather any
info about it to affirm whether or not I should restore it.

We bought it in 1988 with 3k miles on it I beleive from a detective in
the Pittsburg area. It was never used in service and the plastic was
still on the seats. We have a Marti report and it has a 4 digit
(6005) code which leads me to beleive it was an unmarked car. It is a
five speed with hurst shifter. the VIN is XXXXXXXXXXX194570. It also
has stablizer bars and quick release trunk button and came with no
emission control and stainless steel exhaust. The car is crazy fast.

I am happy to assist in any way with pictures or other info. Any of
your help and expertise is appreciated. I have attached a few files
for your reference.

Looking forward to hearing from you.

Regards,
Clay

Fred told me he installed those red deck lights on the package tray years ago.

The post above was what I referenced. If your comment about an agency "using it" didn't refer to service use, my apologies.

Thanks for posting the pics, too, so we can all see what you were referring to.

Oooooo look!? I can see pictures now! What's with the early 80's hubcaps?
