Thanks for weighing in. I will clean up the wording on the two 1982 Marketing Vehicles to ensure that we are not overstating anything. We'll just stick to the facts as we know them presently. If anything new turns up, we can adjust as needed. :)

Eminger invoice for the "prototype" car, CF148027, says 'Police Demo' on it.

There was not an Eminger invoice available for the "engineering mule" car, CF197277, but supposedly it was ordered with the same 'tag' as CF148027.

CF197277's deluxe Marti report shows it was ordered as a 'Marketing Vehicle'.

Thanks for the info, Mick! :)

All very exciting stuff. Thanks for all the effort put forth so far.

Bill, add Coalinga to my 1FACP40E0LF170264 1990 CHP #E389608
Thank you for updating the VIN project with my 85 & 90 Mustangs :2thumbs:

Mike I agree on the accelerated miles, my 90 was in service for some 15+/- odd months that racked up 98k miles in that small time frame but then again it's all I-5 for the Coalinga office:D

The latest updates were made to the 1982 page. The language at the top of the page was revised, and the Police Demo and 3 Marketing Vehicles are included/updated. Only Mike's black Marketing Vehicle is listed as a SSP due to the wording of its Build Sheet. The next VIN (the white car) probably is a SSP too, but we cannot confirm that at this time.

Thanks for the info, Here's the new page -

Great documentation :cool:

Yes, plus the documentation allowed us to confirm a few other SSPs in that DSO number. We know there were 25 cars in that DSO, but it looks like Ford built them in (at least) two batches of VINs and we have not yet found the other batch(es) for the remaining 16 cars. A few strategically picked Marti Reports could locate the right batch, or we could run a few CARFAX or AutoCheck reports if someone had an account.

Nice work:2thumbs:
