Default Helped an Ex Trooper ....

Just recently i was put in contact with a retired Colorado State Trooper
that has been a great help with my 88 CSP ..The other day as we chat on the phone he spoke of his old unit #426 that he drove while in service ...

He had no idea what happened to it when retired , his station then gave him a Camaro that he said was NO fun to drive ...lol as compared to his old 5spd light weight mustang ...

Last night as i looked at all the documents that came with my CSP , i came across a CO auction sheet that came with my car ... but not related to my ssp.. it is from a 1992 auction , my car sold in 91 ? as far as i know .

here is the good part ,as i go down this auction sheet looking at the unit #'s
holly crap !!! i see his old unit #426 . WOW!

I went to work extra early and ran a CarFax on all the CSP Mustangs to see where his old unit went, and BAM there it was , It lives in Arizona , and has failed emissions since 06 ???

I called my contact shortly after my discovery , the sound of his voice was priceless !! he sounded like a young kid with a new toy !!!! i quickly scanned all info and emailed him .. He will now see what he can find from here .

I think this story is kinda backwards of how the trooper stories go ! they usually help guys like us land info , this time a very helpful ex trooper may just land his old ssp with info i didn't know i had till last night .

It is because of this great man that we have a special invite to the CSP Anniv event in sept .....Thanks Ron !!!

I hope he get's his Toy back !!

Nice work....I figured it was Ron. I haven't spoken to him on the phone in a couple of years, but got the email from him recently about the show and posted here about it. Does he still have the '82 CHP?

Hope he is able to find his car....that would be awesome.

Mike , Yes.. still has the 82CHP but stated it's sold ..along with a classic ?
car i think ?
He stated that he wants a CSP Mustang since that's what he drove and loved .
I think he has a CSP Camaro already , It's so funny to hear him say that the Camaro they gave him when they retired the Mustang could NOT catch crap on the HWY ! LOL
