Been doing research on car off to a good start but not sure i will get any paperwork on its ISP history. Got the vehicle history report from Idaho transportation dept. Reached out to the couple that were 1st listed owners in Idaho 1989. They bought it with 70k miles on it they called me back and were super excited it isnt scrap. Older couple but 29 yrs ago it was their fast lil "rigg" as they put it. They bought from whollesaler that got from ISP they informed me when they got it she was all black with super dark tint. They had it 5 yrs in which time they had accident pulling out of driveway. Said it was minor crease in drivers rear 1/4. Which explains the body work i can see and it seems to be failing 25+ yrs later. They asked for current pictures and they didnt hate the porno pimptastic interior lol. They are currently looking for possible photos. But all paperwork went with car in a box sadly. Keeping my fingers crosssed for pictures. They invited me to their place in Idaho but little long of a ride for a weekend. Maybe will head to a show over that way in future make few stops on the trip. But wont be until its gone through.

cool pick up, can't wait to see the pics.
|
Nice to hear you are able to get some history behind the car.

Sorry for catching this late, I have histories on the ISP cars if you need them. I have been told by Fleet about the 1983, 1986 and 1989 purchases not about any 1985's... so you can take that for what it's worth. 1986 they purchased 22 according to their fleet guys with 12 in 1983 and an unknown amount in 1989. I will also have the decal size cutouts for mine ('86) in the next few weeks to verify the sizing. I can help you with finding the necessary clues for if it's a roll bar or non-roll bar car. I also have the radio supplier contact information for them in that era too. I spoke to the guy that used to prep those cars back in the day, he is now a service manager for the dealership that bought out the original SSP dealership.
Do you have a Marti report for the car? It should have been sold out of Bob Rice Ford there in Idaho. Good luck with your SSP! |
ISP
Greg glad to hear somebody has info i do have marti report and it is from that dealer. In vin project only 5 in that group not sure if that makes it only 5 for 85? Sent you a email and appreciate any info you can share.

Just posting this up to see what the thoughts are of all that respond. Its been said and its posted that the 86 ISP's used the GE phoenix radio and unitrol siren neither of them have a huge trunk unit that takes a tray. But in my trunk there is def evidence of a tray mount. Like i had in most of my past SSP's. I know my trunk super sexy like my interior try to see past it and give me your thoughts.. Thank you for any help.

Trunk
Picture of trunk to big for upload maybe Ron can help me out.
|

guessing shotgun rack?
2 Attachment(s)
Got out 20 mins early today not my normal 13+ hr night so opened garage for few minutes wanted to look quick for build sheet where i found it on NC car but the rug is a replacement. So no luck but also no mark on floor from it so still hope. But dis find bolts that look like they went through original rug. They are carriage bolts i'm guessing shotgun rack 2 on driveshaft tunnel other 2 on floor by drivers door. I know ive read they kept shotguns on ISP's across tunnel. What you think? Def not rillbar holes wrong unless was single hoop fir driver.
|
Insight
TTT. Anybody?
|
No clue here. My isp has the holes for rollbar but not those.
|
Shot gun was mounted on the trans hump on the 1991 and newer cars according to the Fleet guys and they also said that the shotguns were in the trunk (no specifics). I have found no evidence of that on mine either... then again, I do not have evidence of the roll bar either!?
|
bolts
They seem like overkill for sure. I will know better when i start remving interior panels since i cant see holes since all panels covered in fabulous fabric.

Looks like this 1 is staying with me for now, think interior svared most away. Well today will change that i bought a 1986 LX 6cyl 41k mile 1 owner donor car. Paint is fried off it but interior mint. I will also be taking bumper covers tail lights and bolt on body panels. The strut towers and floors are 95 % rust free. Maybe part rest out or if Joe needs for MSP maybe donate. Also made some friends in the ISP they got me correct state door seals the old style not thr 1 with star and current plates.
|
Congrats on purchase of correct interior! I know you'll be a lot happier once that's swapped out :D

It worked! I can see it. Sometimes the attachment function requires you to rename and resize the photo in order for it to upload.
