1988 SCHP (How rare?)

[Unmrkd]

David, looking forward to what you come up with on the '88 SCHP. I previously owned a unmarked '88 SCHP Unit # 2-12-23 with DSO of 22 (Charlotte) with the special order #0122. It was a red 5 speed car with gray vinyl interior. The Marti report confirms that data. The last six of Vin # (247978) places it within the last 8 of a group of 39 Vins listed in the project list.

One thing I noticed in the project list for the car just prior to mine (247977) is that although identical in all equipment, the ordering district shows 21 for Atlanta with the same special order #0122. Interesting???

Good luck on the hunt, please keep us informed.

David, thank you for providing that information. Based upon VINs in the Project, I always thought that South Carolina made a relatively large number of SSP purchases. In terms of rarity (the subject line of this thread) from what we now know, that would make the SSP quantities/purchases fall in the following order:

1. California Highway Patrol
2. Florida Highway Patrol
3. Texas Dept of Public Safety
4. South Carolina Highway Patrol

The GSA, Utah Highway Patrol, Nebraska State Patrol, and Georgia State Patrol would be the next ones, but we do not know their exact order (in fact, the GSA may be in the top four). In terms of the SCHP, the first unmarked cars would be the most rare I would think.

Gregg, it is possible that the Marti Report for JF247977 contains a typo on the DSO. Would you be able to post up the Marti Report you have for JF247978?
