0559 was supposedly sold still B&W, but it hasn't been confirmed. Hopefully, Steve will be able to get the assignment card for it on his next visit.

There's only so many colors that look good with the French Vanilla (tan) interior IMO.
It was auctioned off by the CHP but through Downtown Ford in Sacramento. The assignment card shows it was still black and white at that point. There is no evidence of a repaint but Ron had told me that when he bought it in 1999 from a local resident, it was yellow. Plenty of time to have been repainted by one of the successive owners (2 at that point), but too much of a coincidence to be the same yellow as litsnsirn's car.

Here is another CHP with the black lower bumpers, or what is left of it...






Looking at the paint layers, it appears to have been painted a medium/dark met. red. There is no trace of red paint on the lower part of the bumper.

Just one of the few color options they were repainted in. It's illegal to have a car with white doors in Calif...unless it's a white car. LOL

What's your car's unit number? Know where it served? Got pics? Sorry, I don't remember yours.

EDIT: Sorry, I just went and found your post. Welcome to the site. If you can share more information about your car, please do.

Greg

If your car has the original rear seat cushions try looking on the backs of them as the unit # is sometimes written there in felt pen.
