Nice car. How was the car originally painted when in-service?

Per Bill Jr. (28HopUp), here is the paint code:

K3 = Bimini Blue Met./Bimini Blue Metallic. You can see the blue where they taped up the decal here:

Rare and great color. Car looks great but too bad previous owner wasn't digging the Bimini.

Yea. I may just sand it back down and redo it in correct color. It's all still bimini under the hood. Needs paint anyway.

Thanks for the update on your SSP. Now being a resident of Charleston County, I do find this car interesting. Do you have any clue as to HOW the county used your car? There is a County Sheriff Department here, but the car could have been used in ANY capacity by the county. I will let you know if I ever learn anything at the County Building about your car. Please keep the updates coming.

No idea Bill. I do recall doing a carfax when I got it. If I recall, it left Charleston, went into service in some capacity in Georgia, and then was a servce car in Tennessee...something tells me it was at a college but was a while back when I looked. Somewhere along the way, the thing must've seen the drag strip because the torque boxes were ripped up pretty badly.

I thought that I would bump this thread now that our son has been hired as a Deputy for the Charleston County Sheriff's Office. I know the OP has not logged on here since the beginning of 2018, so I may have to reach out to him another way.
