Your buck tags may verify the DSO or even the agency:

Yes , the buck tags do tell me the DSO ... what i don't get is the fact that the DSO is Memphis and my car fax states Arkansas ...DSO 230098
So .. is my car a Tenn SSP or an Arkansas SSP ??? I noticed in the tech section that Arkansas had maybe 2-3?? cars ???? thankx ssp91ssp |

All, sorry
my comment on it being a Tenn or Ark car?? was due to my DSO indicating Memphis ....so i figured Tenn.... My car fax indicates Arkansas .. Well it turns out there is a West Memphis Ark city ... thanks ssp91ssp |

Hector,
You can't always go by the DSO with these cars. A few members here have documented, state agency cars with DSO codes from another state altogether.

New Orleans PD had DSO's of 23, so it could be from anywhere south central.

So far all my info leads to Memphis Arkansas ??? Called there and emailed and got 0 info !!! kinda sad as i see no one else on this site with a possible AR car ....? My kids and i figured that finding history info would be FUN but i guess NOT! have you guys had good luck with a title search ??? what is the cost ? would this search include a copy of the first title ? thanks ssp91ssp hector |

Title searches can be helpful in some states. It depends on the length of time records are kept in that state. Definitely give it a try.
There are still states out there that SSP's have not turned up in private hands. It was only about a month or so ago that a Louisiana SSP showed itself on a SSP related site, and there were 34 originally. Much more than three. Some states are like finding a needle in a haystack. The search for more information may be difficult, but fun for those owners.
