We're on the same page here Michael. I just wanted to clarify things a bit. Personally, I'd love to find an '85 SMPV some day. There were only 155 SSP's bought by the CHP in 1985. For the sake of convenience, let's say the CHP reconfigured only fifteen 1985 B&W SSP's into SMPV's (which is most likely a low estimate). Doing the math, then every tenth '85 CHP found would be an SMPV (a huge simplification, I know!). The 85's do tend to surface moreso than other years for some reason. If an '85 IS found to be a SMPV (at least a 1 in 10 chance), then the next requirement would be to find the Assignment Card to verify its use as a SMPV. At present, I think my source for the Assignment Cards has only found about 18% of the cards that I've requested (which is far better than nothing!). Drat, my odds are getting worse here...
Sorry for derailing the thread. To the OP, good luck on your search! Patience can be a huge benefit to you.
