Stacey David possibly hacking up an SSP to put a 6 SPD transmission in it. Episode ran 8/6 but is on this morning. Had relocated Trunk Release and was LOADED so possibly an FBI car.

Here's the video of him doing the 6-speed swap to the '90 model (supposed SSP).

Warning: Stacey David thinks he's funny and makes himself laugh often.

Towards the end I was wondering if he was going to say anything about needing a custom driveshaft or not. Glad he slipped in that after-thought before the end of the show.

That was a nice kit he installed. Very complete, and I bet very expensive. It probably cost more than the SSP!

Saw the show also, that car had cruise. Did any SSPs come with cruise control? The six speed was nice.

Yes, here is a 1993 SSP with cruise -

I saw an episode last night with the same SSP where he worked on restoring the paint.
It's an informative show with some nice tips, but... :rolleyes:

Yes, my 89 Texas car has cruise. And it works too! :)

Both of my MN State Patrol SSPs have "speed control" (on the Marti report too).
