Maybe you can do a title history check to find the first plate, then you get the unit number. Interesting to see if it is an 83xx # or an 84xx #.

There is the slight chance that there might be another 85 with a unit # one or two #s off like Rich's(CHP8336) car and mine. Unlikely that that would happen, but you never know

I'm looking forward to see what the temporary registration says because it most likely includes the license plate number (i.e. the CHP Unit Number).

Bill, thats a great idea! Once I get home I will check the temp reg and look for any evidence of a unit number. Great tip!

Vince,
Where did I get Sal from ?? lol

Ok good deal. I guess I read your blog wrong. Glad everything is there.
Door stickers are an easy fix through Marti Auto Works.
They did a great job on mine. Get the Marti report while you are at it too !

I may have a couple of CHP items for your car if you are restoring it back to a patrol car. Might have a trunk box and a 33 book and a CHP ET backboard.

Congrats on the car ! Sorry for the misunderstanding.

John

All cars went to Sacramento from the which ever dealership the cars were ordered through(does it say on the temp at all?)
