I have a question for all of you SSP experts on here, as I am still learning. Would this have been a red car from the factory? I'm pretty sure I have seen a red Florida SSP for sale some time ago, but I can't say for sure.
thanks

I live near and work in Raleigh, if you want me to go look at it.

The NCSHP did have unmarked units and quite likely had red unmarked SSP(s) in that timeframe. That being said, one of the colors was red that they used to spray their black/silver marked units for auction. I would encourage anyone looking at this to go through the typical steps for SSPs like the VIN label on the door, buck tags, etc.

If it was an NCSHP, many still have one or both of the distinctive NCSHP labels. The NCSHP affixed two (2) different identifiable labels to their SSP Mustangs. The FAS, or Fixed Asset System, sticker stated "Property of N.C. Department of Crime Control and Public Safety". It is a silver label with black type and a unique number (typically beginning with number seven (7) and a six (6) digit number) with "- Do Not Remove-" underneath. The FAS began in the late 1970's and can be found on the driver side door inside the front jamb on left hand side of the plastic dash. The PIN Number, which is not related to the VIN or FAS numbers, is four (4) digits and is believed to correspond to vehicle number on a particular contract (i.e. 0112 equals 112th vehicle on the 1990 order). It can typically be found adjacent to the inside of the driver's side door jamb on the left hand side of the plastic dash. It may be typed on a white or pink paper sticker with the North Carolina state seal, or written in marker or crayon.

If you look at the doors sticker and can tell what color it originally was painted, that would help whether it was manufactured red or not. The buck tags, DSO, NCSHP labels, etc. would then be useful in determining if it was an NCSHP. Hope this helps you out.
