my new project 1990 lx ssp south carolina patrol car

[superajb]

Hey guys a week ago i purchased this mustang on a sunday drive for a mere 1000.00 bucks and drove it home its a 1990 ssp south carolina patrol car and its in really good shape and runs fantastic i did have to rebuild the suspension which is somewhat of the gt suspension with massive sway bars i pick it up tonite from the paint shop and it got a new makeover with the original color enjoy and ill be updating as the progress goes and show u some key features of it being a ssp car enjoy

 

[JordanB21]

That's a great price!
Are you planning on restoring it to an SSP? future plans?

 

[superajb]

This car was an unmarked car it had 2 holes in the roof and a hole in each rear quarter for the antennas i filled the holes and put a set of wheels on it i am retaining the stock color cause 2 reasons original color and its not a everyday color u see on your typical coupe engine mods are minimal just upgrading the exhaust this car still has all four cat converters an ultimate daily drive with many features of the ssp componets

Nice find! You really stretched those tires out over the rear wheels, what size tire and rim is that?

 

[superajb]

That is a 10" wheel with 255/60/15's its what i had laying around the shop i havent decide which kinda wheel im gonna go with

 

[superajb]

Heres a little proof its a ssp car on the DSO # civilian foxbodys is a 2 digit numbers and its the number where it was manufacture and at what assembly plant my car is 6 digits meaning it was manufactured and the last 4 digits means it was custom ordered

Nice find! Glad to see it go to someone with good taste. A friend of mine had one from Yorktown VA that had all kinds of wiring under the seats, and screw holes all over the dash. From some sort of electronics im guessing. Conrats on the car.

 

[superajb]

This one has a couple holes in the dash but no big deal it adds character and the car has history so ill leave it be theres a hole right behind the third brake light so im assuming thats where the strobes where but im not hacking this car its a pretty cool car to own not many out there

 

[superajb]

Thanks man theres no wires under the seats on this one

 

[superajb]

Well i picked it up today let me know what ya'll think...

 

[Toxic302]

Car looks great man, but i would def change the tire size on the rear.

 

[superajb]

I will just had to get something on it

 

[1992 SSP]

Nice score! I have a 1992 South Carolina SSP . Do you live in SC?

 

[superajb]

No i live in tn guy i got it from was a ex south carolina officer hes tennessee state trooper now

 

[superajb]

Hey guys need a opinion do i stick with the wheels that are on it and get bigger meats for the rear or i was thinking a set of black cobra r's

 

[HuskerNation]

IMO, both wheels are played out and it comes down to your personal taste. You already own those, I personally would just buy a wider set of rear tires and call it a day. Less money and the car looks bad ass as it is (except for the stretched rear tire ) lol

Besides, I don't think black wheels would look good with that color. Nice set of chrome wheels set it off.

 

[David Pepiton]

yeah i would refit the front fender as well. other then that shes pretty.

 

[Toxic302]

I agree with Husker. The chrome look will really do it good. And rim choice really depends on what you wanna do with the car. I mean I ouldnt put skinny DL's on the front if you like curves ya know lol. But on that note, i kinda like the 5 lug conversion and Bullit wheels...

 

[superajb]

Yea its really a original car and its in the best shape ive seen for a ssp car i kinda wanna keep it original with little mods

 

[superajb]

I dunno guys i put these ponies on the ssp and im digging it i think its a clean look also installed full exhaust with the tail pipes sounds great
