Quick pics w/the MSHP magnetic emblems
OK...with 10 inches of snow outside and bored of shovelling, I couldn't resist a few quick photos with the magnetic emblems and repro license plates on it. No harm no foul on the new paint. And yes, I will be relocating those items in the garage away from the SSP before I regret not doing it. The MSHP wasn't consistent on where they placed the fender emblems, but from the MSHP in-service pics of my car they were placed at the front end of my fender.
A returned to in-service SSP Mustang...priceless! Enjoy the pics.

I rec'd permission from the Missouri State Highway Patrol to purchase the emblems from their supplier. The license plate was from the PlateMeister.

I can answer that. The MSHP is as easy of an agency to work with as you'll find. They're always very helpful to legitimate collectors and restorers. Ok....sorry for jumping in there Mike!

With MustangRetriever's help I was able to communicate with that supplier the specs via pictures. Emblem colors have changed slightly over the last 10 years along with the wording on the fender emblems. Also I needed to provide them with the template for the CALEA accreditation emblem. Since they didn't have that one in their records guessing they weren't the supplier back then, however, they had all the color info, etc. to do what I needed. They were expensive (particularly for the CALEA emblem) but the product is perfect and exactly correct! If the next person to go through this get's permission to buy emblems from them they won't pay as much as I did on the CALEA emblems as they're setup with this supplier now.

I had the same great experience with the State of Missouri. Received a letter of permission to restore the 88 including dislay of emblems etc. They also sent me the specific invoice and other paperwork for my car and also the order sheets and invoice information for the other 13 1988 MOHP cars.
I need to scan that stuff and get it uploaded on Fotki. It is a good read.

Great job Mike! Will you be bringing it out to Mustang Memories this summer? I'd love to have a look at the car in person.

Absolutely! I'll probably bring it out to one of the MOCSEM meetings when Spring gets here too. First local car show that I'm sure I'll be at (unless something unexpected comes up) is the local SAAC club's show at Ford WHQ. I really enjoy that show...this year will be my 3rd time there since moving to town.
