1992 Michigan State Police & 1993 Missouri State Highway Patrol SSPs

[MOstang]

Weather permitting Saturday I'm meeting up with a magazine contributer/photographer so he can photo my 1992 Michigan State Police SSP. He is the same person who took photos and wrote the article on the Michigan State Police Camaro I posted about earlier this year from Hemmings Muscle Machines magazine. Evidently he's writing an article (I need to find out for what magazine) on Fox Body Mustangs and wants to include photo(s) of my SSP. I'll update as I learn more info on it. Thanks.

The photo shoot turned out great and was a long one taking 3 hours, believe it or not. I'm fortunate to have a secluded park nearby so he took some photos of it driving as well as many different static photos from a variety of position. An article on my 1992 Michigan State Police SSP Mustang #5114 is going to appear in the new Fox Mustang Magazine (evidently Tom Shaw is the editor). You can find info on this magazine on Facebook and their website if you google it. It sounded to me like the first issue hasn't landed yet, but I'm not positive about that.

The photographer will also be writing the article and he's the one who wrote and photo'd the Michigan State Police Camaro the MSP still owns that recently appeared in Hemmings Muscle Machines. He was told by the editor they thought issue #2 would contain the article on my SSP and it sounded like that was a few months out. I'm going to see the article and have an opportunity to provide feedback before it publishes. I'll keep you posted .

I had an opportunity to proof the article today. Very professionally written article! I'm sure everyoen will feel the same way when the article publishes. Since this author has written some other MSP police package car articles for magazines of late he includes a little info on some of the other historical cars the MSP has retained and some info on some of the traditions the MSP has retained with their cars.

Great news Mike, any idea of the name of the publication it will be appearing in?

Thanks Bob...yes it is a new magazine called Fox Mustang Magazine (apparently one out there called Mustang Magazine now). First issue launches around the first of the year. He thinks this will be in the 2nd issue. You can find them on Facebook and their website by searching the Internet for sure.

Ok, I'm going to dust off this thread with an update. For a few innocuous reasons, the article on my 1992 MSP (Michigan) SSP was pushed out a few issues. I'm told by the author/photographer that the magazine editor swears the article will run in the upcoming issue #6. I just received the new issue in the mail, so I'm guessing it's about 3 weeks out. Will keep my fingers crossed in the meantime that it will happen.
