Bill I have a bunch of information for the "pilot" cars for numerous years, including the original paperwork signed by CHP admin, inspectors from fleet and acknowledments from Ford execs. etc. If you need it, plus some warrantly issues, additional orders for hundreds of sets of floormats, changes to original orders for several different years, speedo warranty/testing communications and so on.

Jim, if any of it can be tied to specific VINs, then yes it would be good to include that information in our project. If the documentation is more CHP-specific rather than being tied to certain cars, then perhaps that would be better placed in the CHP Restoration Pages.

Let's talk soon...

Using some of the information provided by Jim Young, I was able to update the 1989 VIN page (confirmed CHPs starting at 211169) and the 1990 VIN page (confirmed CHPs starting at 170115).

Before getting anyone's hopes up (thinking of you Bobby), not all of the VINs were included in the documentation. The 1990 SSPs in particular had quite of few VINs missing from the paperwork. But it is certainly ALOT more than we had previously! So the 1989 and 1990 CHP Mustangs are completed in terms of the paperwork from Jim. The 1987 CHP cars are next on my list, but that documentation is more difficult to organize so those pages will take longer create. Once the CHP cars are done, I will then work on the FHP cars.

Default First look at a new 1987 CHP page

Here is a link to the first car in the batch of 170 consecutive unit numbers for 1987 -

http://www.specialservicemustang.net...info184712.htm


According to the paperwork, the CHP later placed an order for five more 1987 SSPs with a VIN range of 229944 - 229948. There is CHP/Ford documentation for all 1987 CHP Mustangs from these two VIN ranges. It is just going to take some time to create the pages for these cars.

All of the CHP cars are now added, and the following FHP cars have been added/updated:

1989 - 211945
1989 - 225714
1990 - 161408
1991 - 141357
1991 - 141360
1991 - 141370
1991 - 141378
1991 - 183595
1991 - 183602
1991 - 183605
1991 - 183617
1991 - 183626


There are 35 more 1992 FHPs, and 51 more 1993 FHPs to be added. On these two years, many of the VINs listed also include the FHP unit number! Stay tuned...

The Florida cars have pushed us to well over 1,000 SSPs in our project, and I would like to thank everyone who has contributed to this success!

Here is an example of an entire block of VIN's being discovered as containing FHP cars, and in this case the Unit Number is listed several times in the paperwork -

Thanks again, guys! When I get a chance, we would like to send everyone a little something to show our appreciation for your assistance.

Thanks to Bobby/kapracing for providing pictures of the 1992 Georgia State Patrol SSP he took as a trade for his 1984 Dept of Revenue SSP -

And thanks to MikeP/MOstang for providing Missouri State Police documentation on seven 1993 units. Here is an example of a new page:
