Bill no I think you have the date wrong?
It's April 1st that you post a thread about
selling your car. (my car's brother)
not July 1st
no seriously
what the hell are you thinking?

Andy, first off I hope all is well with you and yours in Arizona. I believe that you are not too far away from the devastating wild fires, so I hope you are safe and sound.

In terms of my black 85, don't worry. I still have the 85 SMPV to restore. Hopefully, this one will find a great new custodian who will join our ranks as proud 1985 CHP Mustang owners.

Figured that I would bump this one. I have a few inquiries at FEP, but nothing solid yet. There is a local guy who looked at the car and is interested, but he is short on funds and has not even put down a deposit. So the car is still available. Here is a list of the police equipment:

• The ruby-red driver's side spotlight is wired up to a fuse block under the dash. This is the single-wire design, but a second wire could be added to run to the CC1 controller.
• The clear passenger spotlight is not hooked up (I have a second clear spotlight included with the car). They both are the single-wire design.
• The correct rear deck lights are wired to a switch under the dash using a modern wig-wag relay to activate the alternating light pattern. Power comes from the fuse block (which can be disconnected under the hood by pulling the in-line fuse).
• Also included is a Federal Signal CC1 controller (which would be mounted in the slot for the factory radio), but it is the one with red and yellow indicator lights on the face. IIRC, the correct CC1 only has a red indicator light.
• I do not recall if I have a MPA2 siren amplifier or not. The car does not have a siren.
• A Motorola Micor head unit is included, but it is not era-correct. I do not have a mounting bracket yet for it. There are two corded microphones.
• The two antennae are mounted on the car. The roof antenna has a cable to run from the back of the car to the radio. The 1/4 panel whip does not have any wiring.
• The correct Regency M100 scanner included. I do not recall if there is a mounting bracket or not.
• There is an extended dual-receiver Micor radio tray, but I do not see the MASTR II repeater (I cannot remember if I ever received one). There is a junction-box wiring harness included. None of the radio equipment has been tested, so I cannot say whether or not they work.
• A shotgun rack is included, along with a Roxter light. The rack does not have the correct brackets for an 85, so some modification will be required.
• A CHP fire extinguisher and bracket are included, but the unit is empty.
• I believe there is a CHP First Aid kit and bracket for this car, but I did not see it in my storage area.
• I have 5 correct steel wheels and 4 correct (used) caps, in addition to the blacked-out 10-holes on the car. The front tires need replacing, which I can do (depending on final price) prior to a buyer coming in to drive the car home. The rear tires are oversized BFGs, which look great IMO.

I have some wiggle-room on the price, and based upon a buyer's desire to have the CHP equipment (or not), and the original steel wheels and caps (or not), this car can be had for a really good price. I would like for it to go to a good home, so I haven't put is on Craigslist, but I might soon. I am not in a must-sell situation, but it would be nice to open up the garage space before winter.

I just realized that my Fotki hosted album lost more than 3 pages of pictures, so if anyone if interested I can email them photos of the car.
