1982 CHP #0548 surfaces....

1982 CHP Unit#0548. It's in really rough shape, but how many are left? The guy didn't include buck tags pics, or one of the door tag, but the VIN number confirms it and it's well within the range.

That's a hard one....but I'd bet not too many. Mike R. has 6 listed in the VIN registry over on Org. There are a few more still running around.

It will be interesting to see how much it goes for. It looks fairly complete, but rough. The car would still be a nice project though.

Both this one and the one I found last year (#0214) are still wearing the original civvie plates issued after they came from the CHP and the number combos are pretty close so they were retired in the same general time frame:





This is a deep pockets project for sure.

Up to $1000....that's impressive. Anyone here bidding?

What's with the black interior? I like it, but I thought they all had tan.

It's definitely been swapped out...and the console added.

Why is it that the CHP cars (mine 85 CHP, Wynnes 85 CHP and now this one) are getting their interiors re-dyed black and swapped? They look decent but not original and there was nothing wrong with the original colors.

If they think like I do, tan interiors stain, black doesn't. 14 years later, I can still vacuum and wipe down the interior of my Feature Car and it still looks presentable, even after 163,000 miles of grime.
