Thanks for adding the personal touch to those photos, John. As chp1982 said, there are a lot of stories associated with these cars, and they were truly a special and unique era in the history of the CHP. I think adding some of the human side has value.

Officer Charles (Chuck) McGuire with Bruce Adama at Edwards AFB. This is the same event that Officer Daniel Cameron provided two photos from (posted previously).

Fortunately the Mustang was the only one seriously injured in this interesting situation.

Our 5th confirmed totaled unit along with 0202, 0205, 0391, and 0269. First hand accounts have provided some staggering estimates of how many of the '82's actually made it out of service.

Trying to get caught up. I was fortunate to have the executor of the late Officer John Rolfes' estate provide me with numerous photos of the crash of 0391 as well as an article. The pictures are on the small side.

Incredible impact. Officer Rolfes was pretty lucky that day.

That is amazing. With the fuel tank located under the trunk it is remarkable it wasn't ignited and that Mustang turned into a tiki torch.
