What a great kid! I turn 50 soon. Maybe I will steal this idea and throw a Thank You Party for Cops at my Masonic lodge.

The March 2016 issue of Mustangs Times contains the following article about the owner of a restored 1991 Texas DPS Mustang -

That's some really good press about our little niche in the Mustang collector car hobby.

Perhaps. I received the Mustang Times last night. Maybe it was due to how late I was reading, but the article reads as though it was never a Texas DPS SSP, but rather served elsewhere.

I agree. I re-read that paragraph on the second page and the wording DOES make it sound like he cloned the car into a TxDPS unit. But who could blame him - those TxDPS units are so hard to find! [/sarcasm]

I'm not throwing stones - it's his money to spend as he sees fit. I'm just happy to see another SSP Mustang get some press.
