New to the site but have owned a 1987 SSP Texas DPS mustang since 1998. I also bought a 1993 SSP P-71 Crown Vic Police car. Still have the Texas DPS Mustang number 184614 with DSO 57 ( Houston delivery ). Used it as a daily driver but now in the process of restoring it back to Black and White. I need a stack mount bracket for the light bar and siren control boxes. This car appears to have been a slick top as I see no hole drilled into the B post on the driver side like the ones that were equipped with the Code 3 LP 6000 light bar. I need a few things like a period correct DPS radio, really doesn't have to work and the antenna for the radio. I live in the Dallas/Fort Worth area and would like to see other 1987 Texas DPS Mustangs so I can see how the bracket mounts to the dash. Thanks for the nice web site.

Are you the same Wendell I spoke with a while ago when I had my 85 CHP for sale?

Ran into this forum while doing some searching for another mustang guy.
Retired from LE 15 years ago. Never had a Mustang assigned to me, but drove them many times. My main reason for reading the various boards is looking at the restorations, and helping with the radios. Radios are my hobby, and have WAY too many so have been selling some, giving some away, and throwing some in the trash.

Welcome...dont throw any away. I too have a truckload of radio stuff from the 50’s on up. I am donating most of it to a local police car restoration group in northern Ohio. They need old radios for their projects.

Default getting started on my 87 restoration/recreation

Looking for the following.
-1987 manual seats and tracks. want to replace power seats and tracks with manual. (any info on if this is possible and how to do it would be great) also not opposed to paying someone if they are fair and honest...not worried about timely as long as they can keep me updated once every few days if it takes that long which sometimes is the case. I am located in northern CA SF Bay Area)
--also looking for 1987 CHP SSP original grey cloth (or vinyl if that was an option) seats or at least the material as my seats are in good shape but the original cloth material on them now is worn. I am not opposed to the charcoal gray tweed or any other tasteful seats as I may not go 100 percent original on my restoration/recreation.
-- need grey carpet, headliner. both front and back seat upholstery, rear package tray and the factory style trunk carpet or surface cover material .
------need drivers and passenger stock kick panels
---fuse box cover
--factory shift knob.

--also looking for the bracket that held the chp radio and shotgun. I believe that it mounted to the dash and the floor on the passenger side somewhere.
--replica or non working chp radio
--rear outward facing light bar that was mounted on the rear package tray for oncoming traffic to see
--outward facing upper windshield mounted lights (if 87 chp ssp had them that would be good to know)
--factory radio and or delete panel
--great to have the various bumper stickers like "get it together" "dont drink and drive" D.A.R.E" or any of the other bumper stickers some units had on them.

Please email me directly at petercasper1969@gmail.com with any leads, items, comments or anything else you deem helpful. I may go days without checking fb and I do not know how to make my cellular phone ping when I get a fb message. If any one of you are in the business of finding and or installing any of this please.. I would love to make your acquaintance quick fast and in a hurry, or if you know of a good shop or person who can do these items...i would love to know about it.
