Motor Transport Mustangs

[Mustang Kid]

Not mustangs, but this is what it would have looked like when with new mustangs. I have a couple pics of all the white camaros I found also, once I get them scanned I can post them up along with a few pics of all the crowns(just like this photo) if you guys want(not mustangs, but still as interesting as the mustangs, and its history too!)

smog reports reported to the BAR you can find them by licence plate or vin number sometimes it works other times it doesnt with the chp cars start with E then prefix for year followed by unit # and theirs your licence plate mine was E895333 the closest one to me in the pics was E895400 it was smogged two months before mine was at the same smog station in 1997 it looks like chp did their own smog because E881556 and E895250 show up being smogged at the chp motor transport

You're welcome guys
Found some photos of my dads 92 and a basic story of the car.
92 CHP #9042 (wrecked fourth of july 93 or 94, officer was helping a stranded family (car broke down) on the shoulder of a highway, the officer loaded the mustang up with the mom in the pass seat and the 3 children in the back while the dad stayed with their car, another driver fell asleep at the wheel (his parents were asleep too) and drifted onto the shoulder and rear ended the mustang at 70mph as the officer was slowly rolling along waiting to merge, everyone in the mustang was injured and one of the kids was killed along with one of the sleeping drivers parents).
My dad still has this car, just like it sits basically (minus most equipment, trunk decals and pass. door decals). We also have the drivers door skin with decals still applied and the front license plate The plate(when I saw the back of the bracket in the car I was like "there no plate on there", turned it over and was wrong lol)


And I found a pic (possibly mac88chp's car) of an 88, sorry it is sideways, tried flipping in PB but it messed the photo up. Later I'll upload it again.

Few more.






This photo was given to my dad (so he doesnt own this photo)

Sam, that's my car for sure. Telltale water-logged left headlight and distinctive gash on bumper cover under the right headlight confirm it.





I received this similar one from either Bill Miller or Charles Ricks, can't remember who but if it's from the later then your dad may have taken it also:



Thanks for posting up that new one!

Bam! I took in-service shots of #1562 in 1996, it's a Santa Cruz Area unit.
