I know he restored my old car, M5-582. Didn't go back stock, no spotlights or black/white and had a cowl hood. That the one you are thinking of? We do need to find out who he sold it to.

Thats the one , I saw it finished it was beautiful. It was solid black. He covered up all traces of it being a DPS SSP. I didnt know what year it was.

Yup, that's it. I hope he left the unit number on the inside of the door jamb. It was a cool car, sat for 20+ years after being bought from auction in downtown austin.

That's awesome Jason! I can't wait to see this car! 4-eye coupes sure are sweet. I cant believe its was going to be a parts car! You got there in the nick of time! Do you think the brown paint is the auction paintjob?

Back in the 80's Brown was a choice for repaint. They used Nixon Brand paint on the cars.

Well I pulled the seats, carpet and rear panels looking for a build sheet with no luck. Floors are 100% solid no rust. I was shocked by that after sitting behind that fence in the grass since 2001. Even the seat floor brackets were in great shape with no damage. I did find a bunch of holes drilled in the drivers and passenger side tunnel. Some kind of equipment brackets. Does anybody have any good interior picts of the 86 TX DPS equipment brackets?? Ive inspected the whole car and found no rust anywhere, if the rear quarter wasnt damaged the body would be super! ..... I guess I should like brown paint...LOL ! Heres a picture of where the rear fogs went and the floorboard holes. I marked them with screw drivers.
