Well we've all seen this photo before...
SMALL WORLD...
This is my new contact but he shall remain nameless unless he changes his mind as I promised. Notice this 83 has no lights under bumper cover. This car ran Whelen Dash strobes and rear deck lights. He plans on coming to look at my 83 and see if he can help with any info and questions...Hopefully he can find some in service pics also :-)

Wow Bobby. What a score and what detective work on your part. This is the best find in years in my opinion.

Thanks!
I agree but I'm a little bit partial to the GSP's !!! :-)
As far as the "detective work I've made some pretty good progress on contacts ,but I owe a great BIG thanks to Bill (28hopup) and Mick(foxchassis) for help in tracking the car down :-)


Oh by the way that pic of my contact and his 83 was taken right up from the GSP Headquarters on Confederate Ave. in Atlanta Ga.

Once the 83's finished I plan to go back to that same spot on Confederate Ave. and taking a couple of it :-)

Probably wont look the same after all these years though

Just heard back from my Contact... I had sent him this pic of my dash pad concerning the holes in it. He said that the two holes are from a stainless steel plate that was mounted there for the the Magnetic light to sit on...

Sooo my car was equipped with the Whelen dash strobe!
And...
This very well could be his old car!
