The first SSP Saleen (JF172217) is 88-0313.

You could ask .NET member "88-0313" for an image of the buck tag.

Out of those 59 produced under DSO 74-0005, do we know for certain (or could we narrow it down?) which VINs were accepted and used by the OSP? Just because some of these 59 DSO buck tag that we have seen say "OREGON" on it does not mean it was actually accepted and used by the OSP. (It is likely that all 59 say "OREGON".)

I suspect that they all say "OREGON" on the buck tags. There is no current way to determine which VINs went to the OSP, which is why we would have to mark the pages as "Agency Usage is Unconfirmed".

[FoxChassis]

Some do say "Oregon State Police" on the main page and on their individual pages, but has that been verified?

JF172236
JF172240
JF172264
JF172270

And then one more that says it on the main page but the individual page says "may be a never used in-service vehicle".

JF172275

As I recall, JF172275 was a recent addition where we were not certain that it was used by the OSP, but there were signs that it may have been in-service at one time. That could also mean that the car was used by some other agency or company, as we saw with the City of Florence SSP or the Blue Cross / Blue Shield SSP in this same batch of VINs.

Just a quick comment. This past Monday marks the 4th anniversary of this thread and VIN Project. It's been a great deal of effort by many people, and we all have learned a lot about these cars. Thanks to everyone who has contributed! We currently have 3,167 SSP confirmed so far, and we hope that we can continue this success in the future. Documentation will only get harder to locate, but we will keep searching.

Thanks again, everyone!!!

It is in a group of 10 consecutive VINs, with this one being the first SSP identified.
I'm not sure what the new owner has planned for it.
