Looks like a good project to save, does it have interior? If not I've got some nice seats (non SSP), nice non-console carpet, OE package tray, manual armrests and rear 1/4 plastics for it and I'm about 60 miles south of you. If interested shoot me a PM with your e-mail and I can get some pics to you and make a package deal for it all. Picked this stuff up for a 85 OSP but car is long gone and tired of moving it around shop. Congats on purchase

I bought this car complete minus a motor last month. I had some moisture in the interior from the window being slightly down and i decided to remove it and also try to find the build sheet with no luck. I do need a rear package tray as mine was missing and i also need the rear side panels as mine are bad from being in the heat. The car still had the black 10 hole for the spare and i found some 10 holes on craigslist that i need to have painted. i also found a low mileage motor and almost all the parts that where needed.The prior owner did a bunch of suspension modifications and bolt ons that i have removed and replaced with the correct parts. I bought this car originally to part out, but after i found the buck tags i did some research and decided to keep it and restore it. I still would like to find out where the car was from originally and try to put it back in the inservice condition.

AZ has no info on these cars anymore. I have tried for 2 years with no luck. I had made contact with a older trooper in AZ and he had no luck finding anything.

could this be a arizona car, even if it has a new mexico buck tag?

It could be. All the AZ cars I have seen have the front push bar. Does yours have one? or the holes were it would have been.

AZ ordered 30 cars in 88.

I just went out and looked at my bumpers. There are no holes in my bumpers and they are the originals with the vin tags still attached. There are holes in my rear package tray area with some wiring still there and the dash has a few smaller holes and 1 large hole possible for the wiring and there is also a mount that looks like another rear mirror bracket about 10 inches from my rearview mirror (possibly for a front mount radar?)Attachment 3811

This one says "NEW MEXICO POLICE UNIT" and is within a batch of 10 VINs.

I don't know of any AZ DPS VINs. There is one batch of exactly 30 in 1988... 248135 through 248164 so the AZ DPS could be those 30, or they could be part of a larger batch.

I thinking it's not an AZ car.

I just ordered a new door tag and a marti report for my car. I hope it can tell me some info about the original dealer and the options that my car was delivered with. Any one else ever deal with a marti report?
