I wonder if it was a 93.
The plate on that one reads 895310 if I am reading it correctly.

I am pretty sure that 1992 had plates starting with 38 and 93 had 88 looking at pictures.

The 93's in the inservice section have 88 as the first two of the plate, and 92's had plates ranging in the 389000+ area, like my dads is 389042.

Your car is confusing me John, as IIRC, it had a build date that would make it a 93, but your paperwork had 1992.

While I was writing this, I did a little more looking, and found some more 89 plates on Mustangs in my Motor Transport Mustangs thread. But then I realized, the 89 plates were for 1994! All of the 94 Caprices have 89xxxx plates

Still confused on why 92 Mustangs would have them, unless they were equipped in late 93??? John's could have gotten lumped in with the batch of 93's that were being equipped? Then 93's that got equipped in 1994 would get the 89 plate?

These are the 89 plate numbered Mustangs I have seen
895201
895310(SMPV, I have pictures of the car at MT)
895400
895216
895392
895250
895254
895309(SMPV)
895338

Pretty much CHP had 88xxxx for 1993, 89xxxx for 1994, and 90xxxx for 1995.

Might just be rambling on here, but I felt the need to investigate
