Sweet! Here are three pages using the two pictures that you posted earlier for the CHP & FHP info -

and

Once the package arrives, I will scan them in and begin the task of creating pages for the hundreds of CHP and FHP cars we can now confirm. That should be a HUGE help to those owners looking to document the origin of their SSP.

Nice job Bill! Thanks for all of your hard work. I'm sure everybody appreciates it especially the FHP and CHP guys.

Thank Bernie!

Jim, your care-package arrived safely in the mail. There are A LOT of pages to be organized and scanned. It is going to take weeks for me to get all of this done.

To give you all a taste, there is a CHP document for the 1989 Mustangs which lists the unit numbers and VINs. The interesting part is that it identifies a stand-alone VIN, followed by the group of cars ordered consecutively (but the VINs are jumbled because they are listed by Unit Number). We know that the CHP would typically order a single Mustang to check that the equipment upfitting would work in the new model-year car. With this paperwork provided by Jim Young, we now know that the single 1989 SSP initially checked by the CHP was:

How cool is that?

Bill I have a bunch of information for the "pilot" cars for numerous years, including the original paperwork signed by CHP admin, inspectors from fleet and acknowledments from Ford execs. etc. If you need it, plus some warrantly issues, additional orders for hundreds of sets of floormats, changes to original orders for several different years, speedo warranty/testing communications and so on.

Jim, if any of it can be tied to specific VINs, then yes it would be good to include that information in our project. If the documentation is more CHP-specific rather than being tied to certain cars, then perhaps that would be better placed in the CHP Restoration Pages.

Let's talk soon...

Using some of the information provided by Jim Young, I was able to update the 1989 VIN page (confirmed CHPs starting at 211169) and the 1990 VIN page (confirmed CHPs starting at 170115).

Before getting anyone's hopes up (thinking of you Bobby), not all of the VINs were included in the documentation. The 1990 SSPs in particular had quite of few VINs missing from the paperwork. But it is certainly ALOT more than we had previously! So the 1989 and 1990 CHP Mustangs are completed in terms of the paperwork from Jim. The 1987 CHP cars are next on my list, but that documentation is more difficult to organize so those pages will take longer create. Once the CHP cars are done, I will then work on the FHP cars.
