Default GSP / Possible RCMP

Read this over on "org". Be REALLY COOL if this one turns up!!!

(Quoted from org site)
Emil and Gerry also laughed about the first set of cars that went to Georgia. Apparently the first one that was made for the Georgia Patrol was being inspected by the Georgia State Patrol Fleet manager. He was looking the car over and was digging around under the hood. Gerry was sitting in the car looking it over and the Georgia guy yelled for Gerry to turn the A/C on. Gerry reached to do so and discovered that there was no A/C on it! Somebody forgot to check the box for A/C on the build sheet. It is a good thing that they caught it on this one car. They were able to catch the others on the line in time for A/C to be put on as a factory part. Otherwise they would have had to make it an "add-on" Ford part and it would have made the instrument cluster look a bit different. The one car that was painted up for Georgia and did not have A/C, according to Emil, was sold to the Royal Canadian Mounted Police or somewhere when A/C was not required. Now that would be a Collectors Car to get a hold of. A marked RCMP car with GEORGIA buck tags!
