Default '84 OSP Comes to GA.

We all have various reasons why we sell/trade our SSP's. I know some folks have asked "Why in the world did you sell the '90 MSHP???". The car is outstanding and beautiful with a ton of documentation. David Philipkoski (previous owner) did an outstanding job on it and Eric Prince helped me on numerious occasions with information and background. I am very greatfull to both.

Some of you may also be aware that I have a '89 SCHP that I am slowly getting together. It is my focus as I really have not seen any others completely done and I want this to be "MY" car. In order to move forward with it capitol is necessary. The sale of the '90 MSHP affords me the opportunity to complete the '89 SCHP.

I spoke to Jim the evening before I bought the '90 MSHP from David and he asked for the opportunity to purchase it if I ever sold it. I have collected three other standing offers since I bought the car but I elected to honor Jim's request and I'm delighted that it will get a special spot in the SSP Museum.

The little '84 OSP stole my heart when I first saw it at Jim's old storage facility several years ago. It was a natural for a cash and property trade. This is one "COMPLETE UNMOLESTED" suvivor. Folks even the automatic choke and cruise control operate correctly. It will have to wait till the '89 is done but it is safetly tucked away. Thanks Jim for working things out on the deal.

Thanks to all for the kind words, just wanted to offer some explanitation of the transaction.

Congrats to you Jim on getting a beautiful car and congrats to Gregg on also getting a beautiful unmolested car. Welcome to the four eye owners.

The 90 MSHP car is outstanding. I will do a few things to it to "tweak" it a little and further the work started by the previous owners. Greg has always been very fond of the 84 OSP car and with me wanting to keep the 84 unmarked dark blue car for my collection the trade deal just sorta fell in place.

I want to say publicly that I appreciate Greg (and Bonnie) giving me the opportunity to own the car. I knew there were other interested parties but he stuck to his word and I consider him (and Bonnie) to be good friends. Friends like that are what makes this hobby enjoyable. I know that in the future the 84 OSP car will get the restoration it deserves to represent our hobby.

Congrats to both of you. These cars always seem to stay in the circle and that is just fine. The more people that join the more people there are to trade with.

As for Jims motto:

Save the SSPs - collect the whole set !
