Sorry to bring back an old one...

I found some more '83-'86 FHP pics (in-service, and courtesy of FHP).

Donny,

This is the other '86 I found with the pushbar (solid and chrome on the sides).

I am still unsure if I want to put the pushbars on my resto. or not. I think it gives it a different look but putting holes on the bumper is a bit of a turn off. It looks like this one has either a MPH Radar or a "BEE" Radar in the car. It is great you were able to get one more picture for all of us that are in the process of restoring '85-'86 FHP SSPs.

Nice pic keep them coming. I'm definitely considering doing that push bar set up on mine.

I'm not putting them on the '85. These two (if they are actually two different cars) are the only ones I've ever seen with them (except for an aero car).

I have 10-12 more....just need to get them all scanned. These will go into the in-service photo section eventually.

Thanks for posting another angle. Looks like a different unit or the same before the lights. The lights definitely make the look. The pushbars look like bumper guards to me. Almost like the same that came on F150's of the same era. Only difference is the mounting brackets. It makes me curious if they are an adapted LTD bumper guard. Notice the slight angle outward at the top of the pushbar. They don't seem to fit quite right. I thought at first that maybe the unit pushed a car, but the tilt on both is too uniform.

Also, an in-service pic with no vent visors. No points off at the shows if I can't find them.

I had the same bumper guards on my '93 FHP Crown Vic before they started using the Setina bars. Nice pic.
