Based upon our findings, both "batches" were part of the same DSO number: #74-0005, which had 59 cars total in that order. By ordering some Marti Reports on some specific VINs, we could learn how the cars were likely optioned. But the cost/benefit ratio does not add up. Plus, it is next to impossible to figure out which cars were used in-service. But as stated, we do know how many SSP Mustangs Ford built in that order.

1988 Ford Mustang 5.0 5spd. Coupe(factory built police car) - $6500 (Bremerton)


1988 Ford Mustang LX V8 5 speed Coupe with SSP option. Both buck tags are present along with all body vin tags. This car was never in police service, this car went to Blue cross Blue Shield of Multnomah county Oregon. Others of this oregon order went to saleen for modifications.

This mustang has 198,000 miles, new exhaust from headers all the way back, manual windows, manual mirrors, manual locks, manual gas door and no cruise. Pretty much original drivetrain and suspension with the exception of the front seats and steering wheel. I have lots of records and documentation including the original purchase paperwork and protecto-plate. Runs and drives good but will need some tlc eventually. This is NOT a project car, its titled tabbed insured and driven almost daily. Downfalls are cracked windshield, ding/dent in roof, front rotors could use a turn or replace. 4th gear works but has an issue. $6500 If it dosent sell here Ebay is the next step.

this thread highlights why the VIN project is so important. Potential buyers can reference the car and know it isn't someone simply creating a bunch of
non- confirmable hype etc. Nice to see the seller putting out the history. This is a unique car for sure.

+1 for the VIN project. Mick and Bill have done a fantastic job recording history.

Thank you, Jim. We have also seen two instances of documentation being posted in the VIN Project which later got lost by the cars' owner. The SSP was sold, and the new owner only had the photo in our VIN Project (as I recall, in one instance it was a window sticker, and the other it was the Buck Tags that went missing).

If you are interested in it I could drive up to bremerton and inspect it for you. I love about 30 mins from there.

I really appreciate the offer but it sold on Ebay a few days ago. I was waiting on if I wanted to bid or not and got tied up and missed the end. It sold for $5500. But never know sometimes ebay auctions don't always pan out. Coincidently I was in FIFE WA last week for work and could have looked at it but at that point I didn't know it was for sale.
