Hi everyone.

Money, space and time needs all dictate that it's time to sell my SSP. I have an eBay auction going as of this evening here:

A lot of you know about this car already, but here's a quick rundown:
• 1985 Mustang SSP, recent white/black paint, less than 117,500 miles
• Everything is pretty much box-stock, except for a Hurst shifter (which shifts really well, actually--the best of any of the Fox-body cars I've owned)
• CHP look-alike whip and rooftop antennas (rooftop is a hokey temp mounting used for shows--I would usually pull it off when cruising around). They go with the car.
• 2 white Spotlights are mounted. They are the newer, rounder type. (I never got around to locating CHP Unity S6 heads, but swapping head fixtures is really easy)
• I cheated a little on the respray and painted moldings black instead of the original gray
• Engine pulls super-hard. Still, carb could be cleaned and/or rebuilt to cure some minor hesitation. It's the stock carb.
• Car comes with 5 SSP steelies (spare still has what I think is a Gatorback on it)
• Car wears shiny, Escort hubcaps (but the 4 original hubcaps also come with the car)
• Car's provenance is well-documented: care comes with original Assignment Card AND an Eminger Invoice!

I think the eBay description covers pretty much everything I can think of, but shoot me an email or PM if you have more questions.

I had to re-post the eBay ad due to viewing probelms (huge fonts) on some browsers. The new eBay ad is here:

I hope everyone who is interested can view it okay. I included lots of pictures, so even if you're not in the market to buy, it's still a fun ad to look at.
