Here's another one that I would love to save -

It is being offered on FB by a member (Mike in Nevada, but I forget his username). It is a project but it could be had for not alotta money.

IMO, this is the type of car to perform a full MCA restoration to "as-delivered" condition. A few of us have talked about it before, but it would be interesting to see a car restored to how an agency received the vehicle from Ford. The NHP 2-tone colors would look great without markings, and the car would be something very interesting at a show, even without the permanent markings, lights, and equipment. Someone should scoop this one up!

I thought the NHP painted the roofs silver, meaning they would be all blue as delivered from Ford.

You may be right. I started to wonder about that after I posted...

Yes, it looks like Nevada painted all of their cars during the upfitting process (I thought it was just the first few years). So cross off Nevada HP as a possible candidate for an awesome "as-delivered" MCA restoration candidate. I'm just "thinking-off", but I wonder what other special paint agencies besides GSP, FHP (a bit common, IMO), and TxDPS would be good ones to consider? Perhaps Idaho? NCSHP?

In 1990 North Carolina ordered their Mustangs black with grey roofs from the factory. I believe that was the only year their marked cars were ordered that way. All others were solid black.

I have not heard from Dave directly concerning his health, but another member informed me that he had spoken with Dave in late June and was informed he had been having health issues again. I last received a text from Dave on July 6th, stating he would give me a call, but I have not heard from him. I certainly wish him the best if that's the case.
