Bobby, thanks for the pictures and VIN's. New pages were done for your 89 GA car, the 90 GSP car, and the 90 CHP.

Currently, our VIN Project has documented 65 SSP's of various years. I've been in contact with many members (with at least 20+ more SSP's) who are in the process of collecting pictures and sending them in.

If you would like your car included in our project, please send me a PM or email - 28HopUp [at] gmail [dot] com (use the symbols and remove the spaces). We are looking for pictures of VIN labels (with DSO's), buck tags, agency ID tags or markings, assignment cards, notations on title with unit number, DMV registration history, Eminger Invoices, Marti Reports, etc. So regardless of forum affiliation if you own a SSP, please contribute to our project.

Due to a HUGE outpouring of support by the members, we now have over 100 SSP pages hyperlinked in our VIN Project. THANK YOU all for your support! If you sent in information to us but the link to your car isn't working yet, please be patient as we are still working through the backlog of information. We will continue to activate more links as we work our way through. We are still looking for more documentation (for listed SSP's, and ones yet to be included in our project), so please send in what you can.

Thanks again!

I'm not going to keep giving play-by-play updates, but we're now up to 135 pages to document each car as a SSP.

There are still 26 more SSP's to go in the 90-93 group, plus another set "pending" with 41 cars where we are trying to gather more documentation before publishing them. So please keep 'em comin'!

Great work guys! I'm in contact with another MN State Patrol Mustang owner here in MN (apparently some of the 20 MN SSPs were given by the State of MN to County Law Enforcement Departments when new and this guy has acquired and restored one of them) and I may soon have his VIN and other information to pass along.

Got the VIN today, and it is from a later order of 3 consecutive SSPs (not the consecutive 20). The owner is going to talk to the Sheriffs Department about how they acquired the SSP. The owner told me he thought there were 2 other ones that had been issued by the state in a similar fashion. He also told me that it had silver 10-holes in service, but no mud flaps (unlike all the photos of the MN SSPs) and that the trunk release was NOT in the glovebox (like the other known 20 MN SSPs), but to the left of the steering wheel on the lower dash. I asked him to get me a photo of the buck tags and door sticker when he gets the car out of storage in the spring. All I have for now is the VIN: 1FAP40E6KF214357

So do you think it was a MN State Patrol SSP or a separate Sherriff Dept purchase of some sort?
