Descriptions of the Saleens look accurate.

Absolutely!

Here's an interesting one that popped up on Ebay over 10 years ago. It was an SSP used by the Fire Department in Lake Worth, Florida. We had a photo of the VIN label, but nothing to confirm the SSP option until we received the Marti Report -

1988 Lake Worth Fire Department




I'm not sure of the status of this car after all these years, but at least it lives on in our Project.

Here's an SSP that I have had in a "VeryPending" folder. It is a 1988 Brooksville, Florida SSP -

1988 Brooksville SSP (unconfirmed)

The car pictured in the link does not have any agency-specific documentation tying that VIN to this car, but it was ID'd at some point as the VIN for this car. So the listing is marked as "unconfirmed", but there is no question that this VIN came factory equipped with the SSP option.

Below is a photo of a relatively new Charger from Brooksville PD. The graphics have not changed much.

Here's an instance of there being one DSO order number with cars sold to multiple agencies. We had already confirmed an SSP from DSO #72-0491 that was allegedly sold to Hermosa Beach Police Dept in California -

1992 Hermosa Beach PD (unconfirmed agency usage)





There were two other cars whose VINs were close in number to this car which were sold on ebay in the mid-2000s. In those ebay ads, the respective sellers listed the agency/city that originally purchased these cars. By ordering Marti Reports, we are able to confirm that they were all ordered under the same DSO number.

1992 East Bay Police Dept (unconfirmed agency usage)

-------------------------

1992 City of Chico (unconfirmed agency usage)





There are other VINs in between these cars, so who knows which agency(s) may have purchased those cars originally? Pretty cool!
