Was your car painted white? I worked with a guy from LCSO who drove a white 88 or 89 former FHP.

Also, I got your message reference the pic upload. Should be fine if its a jpg or bmp.

Welcome to the forum. We have yet to confirm a SSP in that DSO from 1988, but the Orange County, Florida SSPs (different DSO #) are a few VINs ahead of it within the same consecutive batch of VINs. According to the Florida DMV site...
