1989 Ford Mustang Notchback SSP - $8900 (Rio Grande, NJ)

1989 Ford Mustang LX 5.0 Notchback with 126,000 miles. This is an original SSP car from Texas with buck tags and door jamb info still in place. Factory automatic but currently has a T5 manual in it. White exterior with Regatta Blue interior. Very minimal surface rust and is solid, but does need paint. Interior is in excellent condition. Car has AC but not hooked up and needs heater core. The only aftermarket parts on car are exhaust and gears. Rear deck police lights and antennas are in place. Will also include new parts that are not installed: headlights, cowl vent, shocks, struts, original police radio and spotlight. Most of the SSP cars are destroyed or high end complete restorations. This car runs and drives great it just needs some finish work and paint.
Asking $8900
The seller's contact info is a CL email account, so there is no number to call. Sharp eyes will see that those drag radials indicate the car has been babied.

This car is back up for sale on Craigslist South Jersey. Has anyone found anything about it since it was previously listed?

There is a roll cage installed in the back and looks like it goes through the rear into trunk, definitely not SSP issued... LOL.

Drag radials for sure. The images don’t look any different from those posted back in Sept 2019...and ad description has not changed either.

Cobra Jet, I'm guessing if an SSP Mustang would a correct roll bar then it would only be a loop/2 point and not a 4 point type ?

I forget the agency, but some did have a 2-point bar (loop usually directly behind the driver/pass seats.

The one in the CL ad shows a 4-point mounted in front of the rear seat and going through the interior c-pillar plastics being mounted to or braced onto the trunk wheel wells.

I don’t recall any TX DPS units having 4-point roll bars.

Someone can correct me on the TX DPS statement if I’m wrong and also point you into the right direction of which agencies had 2-point bars.

My 1988 Pierce County Sheriff's Dept SSP that I owned had a 2-point rollbar mounted inside the B-pillar. It matched what the WSP units used. I do not have a photo.

I had planned to call the guy and check it out Easter weekend but either he sold it or cancelled the ad.

Here's the ebay link -

https://www.ebay.com/itm/1989-Ford-M...kAAOSwcwRewggc


Attached are pics of the Buck Tags, which come back as a likely TxDPS (although it MAY have been ordered for any agency in Texas). The current seller says that there is agency info in the doorjam, which could confirm it as a TxDPS if he's talking about the unit number sticker. This car is already in our VIN Project -
