Default Photo shoot for upcoming Mustang Monthly article

Had a photo shoot today for an upcoming Mustang Monthly feature on my 1992 Michigan State Police SSP #5114 . Donald Farr, the Editor of Mustang Monthly receives my local MCA affiliate club (MOCSEM) newsletter and viewed my car in there. He asked the gentleman who did the Fox Mustang Magazine article on my MSP SSP to send forward him an article for Mustang Monthly. I understand the article will be very similar, just with updated exterior pictures. While it's a go for the article, the issue number and timing are not known just yet. Hopefully it will drop this year...I will pass along any udpates.

Those Michigan SSPs certainly look nice in pictures. Good job spreading the word about our little hobby...

Thanks guys...Mustang Monthly doesn't publish multi-page articles on SSPs very often, so I'm pretty excited about it. Pretty certain the last one was Marlin Workman's WSP SSP in August 2010 issue and before that a CHP SSP in June 2006, although articles scanned to Fotki have been compromised and dozens of pages are missing since all their issues started months ago (allegedly from Hurricane Sandy, although they have been mired in financial issues too). Keep getting a run-around from Fotki and realizing that instead of just seeing a missing file that you can't open, it is now just a situation of where a file doesn't even show up. So unless you know you had something there, you wouldn't even know it's gone....in the case of articles I've scanned out there I have multi-page ones saved in a sequence so I can tell (for the most part) which pages of an article are now missing.

That's great, I'm looking forward to seeing it in Mustang Monthly... I had my '86 LX 5.0 coupe photographed at the Ford Nationals in Carlisle PA, June 2011... Jerry Heasley took the photos of mine.

By they way, for those of you with Fotki albums, here is a quick update per my mention a couple of posts up...
"Some of the missing photos have been removed so that they cannot be ordered for prints. The new servers are in place so now it is a matter of moving the stored files and synchronizing them with the system. I am hearing it will be a few more weeks. I wish I had more exact info but there is really no way to say exactly when this will be complete." - Georgina, Fotki Team -

Whole thing has been one big customer service failure, but if they restore everything I'll be satisfied.
