Hey Mike.....since you only paid 2k for the car I would be willing to pay you double if you want to let it go...

nice docs !! One of the nicest restorations out there too.

I struck a deal with Kevin Marti and I will soon have an exterior color match for each of the remaining (14 of 20) MN State Patrol VINs.

I have found Kevin Marti very good to deal with. Bob, in terms of the info you will be getting on those cars, it would be awesome if the Marti information also included the DSO number for those cars. Then we could confirm them as SSP Mustangs. Do you have any specific documentation from the State of Minnesota on these cars?

Yes, I was going to request him to confirm that the DSO on all 20 of the VINs is 58 0150. I do not have any documentation from the State of Minnesota on the cars (no records were kept, only verbal information from a couple of troopers who drove them).

Since we have confirmed the known MN cars with that DSO as SSPs, then learning the DSO number for those remaining cars would be enough to confirm them as SSPs as well.

I would like to welcome kdsii (Karl) to the forum, and thank him for providing great pictures of his newly purchased 1989 Arizona SSP Mustang. Here is the ebay listing from when Karl purchased the car -

...and here is the new VIN page for his SSP -

It's cool when a car turns up that provides confirmation of another SSP. We knew that 188100 was also a SSP, but were not 100% sure of its agency usage. Since both cars have the same DSO, we now know that 188100 was also used by Arizona DPS.
