Cool New kid from Oregon.

Hello, I am 15, I do not currently have any SSP's(I have an 84 GT convertible), but my dad has 6 SSP California Highway Patrol Mustangs along with a large collection of various other CHP cars. I would like to get an 84 CHP Mustang someday as they are my favorite year mustang. Hope to learn a lot from this site and share stories of my dads cars.

Welcome to the forum. What years are your Dad's CHP Mustangs? I'm partial to the 4-eyed cars, but I do like them all.

His Mustangs include(all need to be restored, but are fairly nice) :
1982 CHP #300
2 85 CHPs- one bought off ebay for 1500, had an underhood fire that melted the wireing harness and the other was saved from a kid(#8337), my dad traded a clean 96 Crown Victoria that the kid totaled a month after he got it, if my dad didnt get the mustang, the mustang would have gotten totaled.
89 CHP EVOC car
soon to get 91 CHP car that is still original with the cheap paintjob the CHP put on it before sale
And a 92 wrecked CHP car that was rear ended while helping a stranded family on July 4th of 93 or 94, it still survives almost 20 years later without being parted out, my dads plan is to preserve the car like it sits.
I'll post pics of the cars when I am not on dial-up internet.

Welcome to the group. It's been a number of years since we've seen your Dad at the Ripon show. It would be great if you got him and yourself down here (and bring a car or two).

He's been real busy with his full time sheriffs job and his restoration buisness so he hasn't gone in a while along with having no time to work on his cars. He wants to restore his 95 CHP Caprice (#902080, lets see who can guess the significance of that # ), hopefully by next year it will be restored and we can take it down there. I may have my 96 Nevada HP Crown Vic restored and maybe take it down ( if you can bring cars like that; I havent really looked into the show that much)
