Buying 82 CHP Thursday

[stormy69]

made a deal to pick up vin 3105 this week. lots of weirdness but both bucktags and speedo are still in the car.
currently has;
black panted 16" pony wheels
c6 4v intake and holley 600
wrong front seats
c4?? but comes with a fresh t5 setup minus clutch and flywheel
all black paint
open holes for a pillar lights
visible holes filled on left rear quarter and roof, what light would have been on the roof?
no rust

some sheetmetal replaced as i found evidence of a minor fender bender on the front right corner. So hood has scoop but is not correct underneath. someone painted the gauge bezel black
includes an 8.8 fox rear axle

anyway, lots of potential. I am not planning a full on resto but would like to to be close to oe minus the markings.

is the trunk lid supposed to be white or black?

pics to come when i pick it up.

so it appears it was an antenna on the roof. Where can i get both antennas and some spotlights. i am not looking for date/year perfect, just something very close .

Check out the California Highway Patrol Restoration page (http://www.specialservicemustang.net/CHP.htm). Lots of good info there. There are two pages there so don't miss the link to page two at the bottom of page one.

thanks for the link foxchassis, i had read that a while back but had forgotten about it, i was hoping to get an 84-86 car but this is what has popped up and only 10 miles from my home...

were all 82 chp cars vanilla interior? i would like to see some color interior pics... i have a lot of work ahead to make this a decent car! the entire interior is currently black, some dyed, some painted some??

[FoxChassis]

All of the coupes probably had code DV interior. The four hatchbacks that we know of definitely did.

Congrats. Can't wait to see pictures of it.

Nice car. Seeing the steering column shroud in the one pic, it looks like they sprayed the interior black. Looked like they may have done the rear seat too. At least it appears to all be there.

Congrats! It looks to be a solid car. We will have to add it to our VIN Project. ;)

[stormy69]

got this from marti works;
We are working on the Vehicle Certification Label for your vehicle: 1FABP10F6CF213105. We need the weight information from your original door tag to complete the order. Can you please respond with one of the following options:

1) Please provide a picture of your original VCL (preferred)

2) Give us the GVWR, GAWR Front, GAWR Rear, the reserve weights (F0000/R0000) as well as the spring codes (after the TRANS code) as they appear on your original tag.

3) If your tag is missing or damaged, you can authorize us to estimate these weights based on similar vehicles.

Your order will be on hold until we hear back from you.

Thank you,

Marti Auto

Hello Stormy,

As I recall, none of the CHP 1982 Mustangs had roof-mounted lights, they were all "slicktops".
There was a small (about 14" tall) whip antenna mounted in the center rear of the roof, I believe that was for the scanner.
