89 NHP SSP new to the world of mustang SSP
 

First off glad to be here! I have just recently received a 1989 5.0 lx notchback SSP. NHP DSO 53-0513. I'm am new to the world of mustangs but I am hooked. After doing my rehsearch and finding out about the SSP mustang world. I finally found a place to get away. So I have done basic searches and read many post on here before becoming a member just to help me determine weather I was SSP worthy. And after checking the door tag codes and finding the original buck tags near radiator and all the numbers matched on the car well I did back flips. No one in my family is into this kind of stuff so they had no share in excitement for me. Any way she is a 89 T5 manual Z axel code 3.08 I believe. It is white with what was blue interior but looks as tho someone tried to dye it black. Which I would prefer anyway . It has the mag light that flips down in center. Place for spot light. Also has two antennas. Has the black 10hole chrome center wheels with xxx body on tag but has black with blue stripe molding. And the dash is full of screw hole I'm sure where all the instruments went. So if you have any advise and knowledge of what peices could be missing I would like to restore this back to SSP condition and SHOW it.

Sorry for the multiple post still learning how to use site. Bare with me

Welcome and congratulations! You'll want to connect with member NHPcars.com (Mike), who also happens to be an NHP State Trooper. He will have boundless input for all the questions you might have on a Nevada Highway Patrol SSP. Check out his website too as it has tons of cool pictures of NHP cars, including SSPs. I would suggest sending him a PM (private message through this website) or reach out via his website. To send a PM through this website, click on private messages under where your user name is dispayed upper right of the webpage. Through there you send, view, etc. PM messages. Oh and by they way he's got a Facebook page setup for for that website too. Good luck in your quest and keep us posted.

Jake, welcome to the forum! :D

The Nebraska SSPs turn up on occassion, but in terms of the agency I don't think a great deal of information is known about them. Use the search function here to read all you can about Nebraska cars.

If you would, please post up some pictures of your VIN label on the driver's door, and if possible a clear picture of your buck tags. If you have to, you can tape a piece of paper over them, do a rubbing, and take a picture of that. We can then add your car to our VIN Project. :)

Thanks for the advise I will be sure to get in contact with mike.

I will absolutely add pictures today for the VIN project. My labels are in pretty good shape.

Do you think I would be able to get useful info from a marti report?

Actually mine is a Nebraska according to buck tag. What should I abbv. That as NEHP?

Welcome Plauts (what a strange nickname ..., no ?) :D

In my opinion, for a car that you own, the Deluxe Mart Report is worth the extra money because it lists more information (like the name/address for the ordering dealer) than comes on the standard report. We pull the less expensive standard reports for the VIN Project because they still confirm/deny the SSP option.
