For anyone who hasn't seen this as yet, I scanned to my Fotki album an article received this week in latest Mustang Enthusiast re: Tip Smith's 85 Kentucky State Patrol SSP.

Nice article....thanks for the scan.

Does anyone here know Tip?

I don't, and wasn't sure if he jumps on the forums at all.

That's a great article. Thanks for scanning/posting. I like the hand written notes he's received from people who encountered the car while in-service.

Tip shows his car only a few times a year. He is one of the 6 KY SSPs that we had at Somenites Cruise in September. The car is perfect. He has done an amazing job with the restoration, and the connection that him and his wife have with the car just makes it better.

If you have ever seen the roll bar in the KY cars, they are very well built. Tips car was the first to have a roll bar installed. This is noted by the notches in the rear seat. KSP sent the seat off to be altered, and when they got the bill, decided the scrap that idea.
