Looking at a 1991 SSP Need Help

The car looks real nice in the photos. I just have one minor comment...I don't think that those seats came with that car from the factory. They are GT seats as far as I know. I know my '90 LX convertible had them stock, but coupes?

The GT/LX 5.0 seats came in quite a few government ordered cars. They were optioned out a little better than the standard SSP.

I wish I had those seats in my SSP. The seats I have are SOOO uncomfortable! I don't know how an officer could sit in those all day long.

I've seen some (in person, in-service) in '91 cars. None prior to that. I don't think it had anything to do with how they were optioned....but it'd be interesting to see a window sticker for one.

What about it not having the single key? It uses the standard 2 key system. I would like to change it over t the single key and also put the black power coated wheels on it... Like I said other then the paint and the obnoxious exhaust it is really tight. I also own a 1984 LTD LX with the old 5.0 V-8 since 1990. I love the Fox cars. This SSP has never had anything mounted inside. It is, with the exception of the carpet being a bit stained and the paint not being top quality, in good shape.

Single key was an option.

Personally, I'd spend the extra $1500 and buy the Santa Clara car. It is pristine.

the santa clara car is rarer as it is dark blue. and it is almost perfect. seriously...if you are going to spend 7500.00 you definitely need to look at jon's 91.

I would be very concerned about the cheapo paint job on the black car. I know what MAACO does to paint stuff and it aint good.

Ok... I checked the picture of the blue SSP that John has but where does he live? I have to factor in transporting it here also. Is he still selling it? Thanks

John lives in Old Forge PA. Between Scranton and Wilkes Barre, not far from your location in Jersey. Could drive up and not worry about shipping.
