1987 Texas Highway Patrol Mustang
1 Attachment(s)
Up for sale is my 87 DPS Mustang, M7-331. Purchased at auction in June 1990 and returned to service trim. This is a blue chip example with all records and extras ( parts,tires) obtained over the years included. This car is not a daily driver and never has been. If you want one of the originals that has not been through a million owners, here you go. Entertaining offers. Trailer could be part of the deal.

Sorry to hear about your sale Joe but best of luck with it and I hope this doesn't mean the end of the line for you with the SSP hobby.

Yeah, Joe. Don't let this be the end of the SSP hobby rope for ya. Stay involved as an advisor (like me) in case someone needs you for something in the future. I am always still on the hunt for the perfect SSP Mustang and if I ever find it, I will drop everything to get it!
Anyway, hang in there. And don't sacrifice - if it's not the right price, don't let her go until you are confident in the buyers intentions and the prices. Good luck, mi amigo! PS: You going to sell your trailer, too? |
You said you are entertaining offers, do you have a general price in mind? Both with and without the trailer? You can PM me if you want.
|
Nice car! You posted it for sale with no price. What is UASSPP???

Extras include: 1987 Ford shop manuals, DPS service records, set of 4 lightly used gatorbacks, spare spotlight, spare DB 702 antenna, 1/18 scale GMP Texas prototype Mustang from my involvement on that project, etc. As said before, this car is one of the first and I am not new to this hobby. This is a car you have waited your whole SSP Mustang life for.
|
What's your asking price or what are you looking to get for the car????
|

I too will hope that Joe stays in the hobby. Having those folks out there who appreciate and care for a car because of what it is, not because they want to make it something else, are few. Joe has owned this car for several years, and helped my tremendously when I purchased my SSP to restore. I have alot of respect for how Joe takes care of his vehicles. This is likely the most original out of service Texas car ever. It is a true collector car, having been purchased by a collector, and then later sold to Joe. I have had the honor to be present when this car is being shown, and it always draws a crowd. Texas purchased many of these cars, and onlookers usually relate to it more so than my Michigan car. I could go on about this car, but won't. Simply put: Very nice car, great documentation from trooper who drove it, great guy selling it.

Let me amen++ that Bruce.
|
Is it some kind of mystery what the asking price is? I see alot of people asking with no reply?
|
18K..... or more if you would like :) Great deal considering.
|
This level vehicle separates the true collector from the redone car owner. If you want a piece of history, here it is. Cars like this are not offered everyday. No mystery here. Just not a give away item.
|
IMO, $18K isn't crazy money for your car, even with the economy the way it's been for a while. Since you hadn't listed a price, I thought you might be after a rediculous amount for the car. But that seems reasonable to my way of thinking. Good luck with the sale, and I hope it finds a deserving new owner.
|
Joe, I've never seen your car in person but from the photos and what I hear from those who have, I believe it's worth every penny of your asking. Good luck!
|
Thanks Michael. I think so too. I have another car I would like to get so that is my motivation. This is really a great car and if I don't sell it, it won't spoil my day. As they say, I have roots in the Texas car.
|
So Joe,
Anyone showing interest in this Beautiful "87?? |
Another +1 for this car, and Joe. Joe was the first SSP enthusiast I met in person after picking up my first 89 TX SSP when I lived in Michigan. The information and help he provided me was invaluable. Without all of his knowledge and his perfect example of a TX SSP there is no way I would have been able to correctly restore my 89 (it still was not as nice as his) The amount of documentation he has on this car is amazing.
As for Joe himself he has been a major influence on me and this hobby and is truly someone I respect. I hate to see the car change hands but I am sure it will stay in the family. Just another photo, One of my favorites, Joe's on the right http://i223.photobucket.com/albums/d...8bullitt/1.jpg |
Great photo Aaron...thanks for posting.
|
Thank you Aaron. I appreciate your kind words. I am glad you are with us in the hobby! Bruce, some have shown interest but I still have it. :)
|
Car still wears last set of new gatorbacks it left the DPS with plus 5 NOS gatorbacks acquired over the years as part of the package.
|
showoff.... ;)
|
Sure brings back good memories for ME!
Joe....I play the lottery about twice a week. Can you hold off selling until I win? ;) |
Over 1100 people have looked at this post, no takers yet.
|
Try lowering the price? :yes:

I am willing to negotiate my young friend. What is your offer?
|
Thinking about a price reduction. What do you think it should be?
|
Joe, the price should be what is fair for you and what you are comfortable with. This car is unique and definitely not eligable for low ball territory! As has been stated - the economy and lack of job security is probably playing a factor with no firm offers so far. Someone will find a way and when they do they will be getting an outstanding SSP. Hang in there and good luck.:thumbsup:
|
I agree with Gregg! Hang in there Joe .
I wish your car listed before i purchased my 2 ssp's !:headscratch: that sucker would be sitting in my stable back here in TX right now . Joe , you made a trade comment on another posting ????? if this is correct , what's on your mind ?? i had to ask .;) ssp91ssp |

Keep the price higher, you'll find the right person easier that way. I'd hate to see someone get it because it's a "clean coupe"... know what I mean? |
