82 CHP Gun rack on ebay
Anyone recognize the car
I am guessing that he is making reproductions? Seller also has whip clips. The brackets have to be shaped though. Anyone know where I can get one of those shotguns? That would be perfect for my 85 and it is legal for a 16 year old too http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll...#ht_500wt_1287 |

That's Robert Reed's handle on EBay.

I came over to post this too. Look at the different design of this shotgun rack. That would explain why my '82 CHP and several others do not have holes on the dash next to the heater and ac controls. Is this the missing link? What do you think?
Time to go look at what few interior photos we have. To the Gallery!!... Wow, only one interior photo that shows the shotgun rack and it's the "other" design that would put holes on my dash. But they're not there.

Edit: I take that back. Really study the interior photos. Look at the Magazine Article section, too. The left radio mic is too far over to be on a bracket that mounts next to the heater/ac controls. It extends over in front of those controls. I believe the one on eBay is identical whether a reproduction or original.

So this is Roberts car???
I can tell it is the same car in the listing because of the spotlight, the primer (shown on one of the whip clip listings), the bracket on the trans tunnel, and the auto shifter. Or is Robert just visiting the owner to take mock up photos in the car |

Hmmm...unless he's changed it recently, I don't believe it's him. I think this seller is from Southern California.
The bracket on the eBay whip clip won't work on a Mustang, not long enough to reach the mounting position in the upper door jamb. It's identical to the one that came on mine and was replaced with a hand fabbed one that would work. I do like that State of CA fleet credit card it's sitting on though.... .... I need one to complete my CHP-33 book (carried in the pocket inside the cover). |

Hmmm...I could have sworn that was his EBay account - but I could be wrong.

I'm pretty sure this seller has posted up CHP shotgun racks before.

Look at the difference in the back of the ebay rack from this in-service pic (magazine pic, left side photo of the two). If you zoom in, you can see what I'm talking about.
http://www.specialservicemustang.net...usmustang3.htm Same design is shown here: http://www.specialservicemustang.net/CHPatrolman2.htm Those are the only two (good) shots that I know of, and they appear to be the same rack to me. The rack I got from Robert awhile back isn't correct, just like the bracket for the whip. Nothing that a little modification won't correct, though. He does a nice job of restoring them, including the wiring.
