Default '93 California SSP

Here are a couple of pics of my '93 California SSP. I have to call it a "California SSP" because I don't know what it did. Even thought it was originally painted B&W, I don't believe it served with the CHP. The guy I bought it from only remembers that the guy he bought it from worked in some government position. Still waiting for CA DMV to get back to me with Ownership records.

In the pics, I'm getting at the heater core. This the second heater core that I've had to replace. It was easier than the first...

You can see clearly herre that the drivers door is white...

I pulled all the wiring away from the fender and am cleaning and touching up the engine bay...

My progress will be much slower than, I forgot who, gutted, prepped and painted in a week!!! Wow!

At this point I've got the dash back in and am holding the interior at that until I can replace the nasty carpet. And the engine bay is almost cleaned up to a decent point.

Hey Toshi,

Did you happen to read that thread on the CHP forums about the Mustangs? One of the CHP officers has a car that was delivered as a black and white but was repainted before being put into service and used as an admin car.

That's my vote on your car. Maybe you could contact him over there and see if your cars are similiar.

I did read the stories they told, but did not catch that particular one. I'll check it out. Thanks.

Since you are now a pro at it, when can you come over to my place to help me install a new heater core?

Haha! I'll be right over! Naw, I think that your '85 was designed a bit different than my '93. I think that you just go through the glove box and bypass pulling out the dash.

Refresh my memory here, did you have a look at the buck tags and door sticker or has this been covered in another post that I can't find. Thanks.

Sorry, I missed this...

Yes, I've looked at the buck tags. I believe that I put pics of them up in a different post along with the door sticker. I'll have to look back to see which post.

O.K., yes I did post pics of buck tags. Look on the post "NICB SSP Mustang".
