My guess is a former Oklahoma Hwy Patrol that was purchased used by a police department.

I don't think I've seen those Ok cars show up much

I think OHP only bought SSP's in 85. I have only seen one and it is lurking still somewhere in Ohio.

Welcome to the forum!!

What are your plans for this SSP? The city may have gotten a couple cars off the state bid(order) for mustangs that year. Or a couple cars went to the city after the highway patrol was done with them.
I know nothing about the Ok. cars haha.

Good luck

Well, it's definitely a ssp from the buck tag. The tag says black paint with white doors and roof, and it looks like it says Oklahoma. It may ended its career as a police car, but it most likely started it with the Oklahoma Highway Patrol.

Have you run a CarFax report on it? Many of these cars, like my 93 Missouri State Highway Patrol SSP, ended their in-service career with a local police agency after the state surplused them. The CarFax might offer a clue or two. You should also order a Marti Report too. The bucktag and the special paint would seem to suggest is started with the OHP. Perhaps it started with the OHP and was later used by a local policy agency. Would sure be a cool and rare SSP.

Welcome to the site, Dan.

The info about OKHP only ordering in '85 may be incorrect.

Does your car have an AOD? CAn you post a pic of the doortag, other buck tag, or last 6 of the VIN?

Here is a pic of an in-service unit from our website (the pic above is someone's resto).
