The car appears to be super original, what's the story behind it?

Paint code is 3R Medium Shadow Blue with gray interior. The car was used by the MOHP then sold to Jefferson County Sheriffs office. Don bought this car in 1996 with 136k miles. He put springs and struts on it and put about 20k on it over the past 13 years. The car has only had one repaint of the original color and has all the original body panels. Still has original ford exhaust (rotten) with all 8 bonding straps. The car is bone stock including the factory radio. It runs and drives really nice. Transmission was rebuilt by the patrol.
Couple of neat things about the car.. Power door locks with manual windows, cruise control, rear defrost, and 3.27 gears. I really like the medium blue with the black ten holes. Can't wait to get it restored. I am planning on doing a complete frame up rotisserie nut and bolt resto on this one.
