Selling my 1989 Utah SSP and getting a FHP SSP
I am selling my Utah police car automatic in exchange for a Florida Highway Patrol car. They are in about the same conditjon but its hard letting go of my current SSP. Am I doing the right thing guys? On the other hand I love the FHP cars and the five speed is just awesome!!! Thanks everyone!!

It's really all about personal preference so I'm not sure anyone here can add much you haven't already through about. For instance if rarity matters to you, obviously the UHP had way fewer SSPs than the Florida. If you like 2 tone colors and white isn't your thing than that points to the FHP...etc, etc.

In addition to what Mike said, with a car like this you may also want to consider what documentation is known/available about a specific SSP. IIRC, your Utah car has some documentation with it. The FHP cars are difficult to obtain new information on, so you may want to factor that into your decision. But if the auto isn't making you happy, then find another SSP with a 5-spd.

Good points guys. My Utah ssp belonged to kanab city police department so its.a.bit obscure whereas the FHP seems to have enough info on it to restore no original. I have had a.devil of a.time trying to find pics of kanab city police mustangs....thanks again...ill be most happy with a five speed

I saw your Utah car on eBay, it looked pretty clean. It is getting harder and harder to find clean SSP's too.

Thanks Aaron, it is very clean and I am having difficulty selling it. The buyer will be here Saturday to pick it up and I am getting extreme cold feet. I need some opinions here. Should I keep and have two SSP's? Or sell it and swallow the loss of a few thousand? I may have to put up another post for some opinions!

Mike, the SSP was owned by Kanab City, Utah Police Department and this was the chief's car. They were the first owners and only agency that had it. I want to keep it but I want a 5 speed SSP. Its a tough decision!

Cool...that's definately a unique one. I'm with the 2 is better than 1 club (of course 3 would be better than 2, and so on, but the wife won't go for that...yet, anyway).
