The 1990 CHP StangThe 1990 CHP Pony
Sam,
I purchased that car back in 1997 from Motor Transport and brought it up here to Oregon. I think I paid $3250.00 on a bid over the phone to CHP Motor Transport in Sacto. if I remember right. I was the first owner after CHP to own that car. I drove down the next day and picked it up then drove it home. Same colors as when I purchased it. Gross HA I wasn't into restoring them like I am now. Wish I was. I would have grabbed a lot of the original equipment while I was there. It was fun to drive ! It had AC issues. I never bothered fixing that. After I sold it, I used to see it driving around Medford all of the time. I talked to your Dad about that car a few months ago. I tried to run that guy down in GP in that car back in April-May last year when I started looking for another SSP to retore back to a patrol car. I got blocked by a lard ass in a mini van and a red light. I lost him. Or I'd own that car again ! You are lucky ! Not much else I can tell you about the car except that it drove and ran really good. I remember Motor Transport telling me that it wasn't used on patrol like most of the other mustangs were. So it didn't have the hard miles on it. Seems they told me it was used at the scales most it's life. Let me know when your Dad acquires it. I'd like to come look at it a little closer again. Maybe I'll dive in under your Dad and give the guy cash for it HA !!!! kidding By the way, I'll be passing through GP this weekend, you guys going to be around the shop ? I can drop off that sign your Dad wanted me to do for him. Let me know. Later John

Ha ha meaning, I saw him drive by me and I turned around to try to stop him, I got cut off ! LOL
There was too much traffic at the time. Not sure I have any pictures, I'll look around one of these days. I may. Seems I did take a couple pictures of it. No idea what area it served. I am sure they told me, but do you think I can remember that ? lol NOOooo OK, I'll call before I head that way John
