I will not be posting any pics of any SSP in which a Trooper lost his life ( there was only one)
Just didn't want any confusion some of these pics does not seem like could have been survivable BUT THEY WERE . Trooper Vowell was VERY BLESSED on this Friday the 13th in 1991... The suspect he was chasing ran him off the road.

Bobby, well done as always gathering up all this information. That '83 is almost as cool as yours! Does anyone know what hubcaps those are? Man, I love that thing. Walnut is a great interior color.

Friday the 13th was indeed a lucky day for Trooper Vowell!

Thanks :-)
I have others I'm waiting for details and verification of Troopers on...
We ran a VINCHECK on it a while back and it has no records past GSP. Would be really KEWL CAR to restore for sure if it ever turns up. It was not wrecked before being turned in by Trooper so unsure why there's no record ( it COULD BE still around?)...

Those GSP roll bars really worked !!!

EDIT

This Trooper was issued Perm 8344 new but at some point later was issued a used Mustang Perm 8296 and was transferred to post 6. It was after that this wreck occurred.
Time of accident info was;
