Cars n Coffee (A wing story)
 
At a Cars n Coffee today i learned something new
my friend Chuck always gets asked....is this a real Shelby?
they don't ask me...Is this a real Police Car?
usually they know all about CHP Mustangs and are willing
and ready to tell me all they know. At car shows and car guy
gatherings in the past i have learned allot like:
my car is missing the light bar
V8 mustangs did not have four lug wheels etc.
And so
what i learned today is that the SSP/CHP Mustangs
would fishtail at 120 mph that's why CHP started putting a
Wing on the deck lid for stability
So in addition to a light bar
i now need to find the CHP/SSP wing?
should this be in the Parts wanted section.

Amazing what you can learn about police cars at some of these car shows!:eek:

Really? That's probably the most often question I get from people when they see my car.

It IS too funny to hear the experts spout off about YOUR own car. Thanks for sharing, Andy! :)

That would be some incrdible driving at 120 to bave the back end start coming around on you. Who would have thought those cars were that powerful.

Yeah, it's the 1992 Special addition wing although some CHP cars could also travel into the future, it had to start fishtailing at 88mph though not 120mph, anyway those guys went to 2000 and barrowed the wing from the Cobra R, they were usually painted with another thing from the future, transparent paint that’s why you have never seen them.
