So in retrospect they use two different cars for filming Now we've identified two famous GSP's. Will be cool for the owners if they turn up and get restored

They filmed the show several years after many of the stories happened, so that's not unusual.
They used an '86 CSP Mustang, for example, when they filmed the episode featuring the Trooper who shot and killed a suspect while driving my '83 CSP car. It had already been decomissioned at the time of the filming.

Definitely a little extra conversation subject on the history of your 83 SSP...

Yep. Dec 1986. Crazy thing is that his brother, also a trooper with CSP, shot and killed a suspect 3 months later.
