The deal is DONE! With the help of Rich aka CHP8336, I was able to buy this 1985 CHP Mustang. I have been searching for this car for quite a while actually. It surfaced in 2010 as seen here:
http://www.specialservicemustang.net...ead.php?t=2518 After it had sold, we came to realize that this car had the same VIN as the following 1985 CHP Mustang -   Which is the car shown in the following in-service picture -  That's right! A SMPV Mustang from the 1987 pilot year of the program has finally been found. It's one of 15 cars, according to a news article found by Jack aka Va 5.0, as discussed here - http://www.specialservicemustang.net...6&postcount=24 This would not have been possible with Rich's help. I sent the seller a deposit, and overnighted the balance in USPS money orders to Rich, who drove 7 hours to meet with the seller this morning. Rich just picked up the car, and is driving back to his place with the SMPV. He has offered to keep the car until I make arrangements to bring the car out East. THANK YOU, Rich!

Thanks guys! I forgot to thank Ken for loaning his trailer to Rich. Ken owns the 1989 Blue & White SMPV. I'm sure he and I will be talking quite a bit more now.
 Even though I do not have the car yet, I went ahead and changed my signature. I will post pictures once I get them from Rich.
