1993 Ford Mustang LX SSP FHP Trooper Car 


1993 Ford Mustang LX SSP former Florida Highway Patrol Unit 1075. Last year for the fox body mustang and last year for most police agencies use of the Mustang as a chase car. This particular car is well documented and in near perfect condition. I encourage you to run a search on it by vin and by its former unit designation FHP 1075 to do some research on this car. Since its retirement from service it has been restored just about completely. I am going to try and list many of the items that have been replaced or restored but the list is extensive so please call me with any questions. For anyone that is not familiar with these cars they were used in many states by various police agencies as special service vehicles, some marked, some unmarked but mainly on the highways as chase/ radar cars. Ford outfitted these cars with several special modifications that increased their durability while being used for these special tasks. There are numerous websites / forums that explain history and use of these vehicles. Some of the special features are:


  • Engine, 5.0 L HO V8 with Sequential Multi-Port Injection

  • Forged pistons, roller cam
  • Engine oil cooler
  • Aircraft-type silicone radiator hoses and clamps
  • 5-speed manual transmission
  • Brakes, power disc front/drum rear with rotor shields
  • Stainless steel factory headers
  • Dual exhaust system w/stainless tips
  • Fuel tank capacity — 15.4 U.S. gallons (58 L)
  • Heavy duty stabilizer bars, front and rear
  • Full instrumentation with in-dash tachometer
  • 130 and 135  amp internally and externally regulated heavy duty alternators
  • 2 Piece VASCAR speedometer cable
  • Certified calibrated speedometer 0-160 mph 
  • Relocated rear deck release
  • Single key locking doors/trunk
  • Reinforced floor pans
  • Full size spare tire
  • 15" X 7" cast aluminum 10-Hole - wheels

    The car has 104k miles on it most of which were put on by the florida highway patrol. Since its retirement over ten years ago the entire car has been been redone with the exception of the motor and transmission. The entire interior of the car, seats, dash, carpet, headliner, trim, window seals, door seals all repaired or replaced. Everything works as it should. The car was repainted black, it has good shine and the body panels are straight. Doors, hood, trunk all close as they should and line up well. The car has had no major damage to it over the years which in itself is amazing as it was a marked police vehicle for much of its life. It was involved in a minor accident in 1997 but I am unable to tell where the damage may have been. I only know about it because of car fax and a call to the Florida Highway Patrol to verify. All of the glass on the car is perfect, no chips or cracks anywhere. Headlights, tail lights and marker lights have all been replaced with FORD NOS parts and are clear and free of blemishes. The original 10 hole rims are on the car as they were when it was ordered and they wear the correct goodyear rubber that is in great shape. The motor runs strong and is in fantastic shape for a twenty year old police car. I installed a new intake gasket this past summer and while I had it apart replaced the water pump with a new Ford unit, thermostat, breather valve , power steering pump with a new Ford unit, and serpentine belt. The transmission is in great shape as well, shifts well and the clutch was replaced a few years back. The rear end on the car was rebuilt with a new posi unit several years ago and has 3.27 gears in it. All of the suspension was replaced last year, springs, struts and quad shocks in the rear are all new. New rear wheel cylinders also installed. New factory headers were put in and it has flowmaster super 44 mufflers put on last year. It sounds awesome, not too loud when cruising but just enough when you get on it a little. The only aftermarket parts on the car are a short throw shifter and adjustable strut mounts. I have the original factory pieces that will go with the car. Other than that is completely stock and just about perfect. Everything on the car works, AC / Heat, Wipers, Lights, Radio, Gauges, Mirrors, Window cranks, Horn, Trunk release etc. I use it as weekend driver, it's not a show car but I wouldn't be embarrassed to show up at any cruise night with this one. These cars are getting pretty rare as many were used as race cars after they were retired. To find one in this condition is also rare. You can drive this car anywhere with complete confidence. I would encourage you to have your expert look at it and make their own judgement but this one is a gem and needs nothing. If you have been looking for one of these special cars you know whats often for sale and a lot of it is junk. This one is turnkey summer fun and a great collector item as well. Wish I didn't have to sell it but it's gotta go. 

    Please call with any questions you have. I'm sure I've missed something here as there is a ton to list. I have a huge stack of receipts and documentation. 716-523-9422. 

    If you can't pay for it don't bid. I don't want anyones junk as a trade and won't accept your third party out of state check or something from a third world country. No you can't pay me twice what the cars worth as long as I front you some cash. Shipping is your responsibility but I will help however I can. The car is legit and so am I so don't hesitate to call with questions.

George W. Bush's 2009 Ford F-150 fizzles with $300,000 bid at Barrett-Jackson [UPDATE: w/video]

Sun, 20 Jan 2013

Despite some truly impassioned pleading from Jay Leno himself - including calling on Arizona's notoriously Republican-rich voters to beat the $600,000 level set the last time Leno sold a vehicle for this particular charity... in California - bidding for George Bush's 2009 Ford F-150 pickup truck stalled at $300,000.
All proceeds will be sent to the Fisher House Foundation, so at least it's $300K going to a good cause. Feel free to check out the live image gallery above, which includes shots showing Leno's skills helming the auction, and read through the official auction description below.
*UPDATE: Video of the auction and Leno's prods to the crowd for more money can now be seen below.

Ford board pushing Mulally for decision amidst fears story is drowning out other news

Thu, 12 Dec 2013

Automakers and their executives rarely like to divulge information regarding future goings on, but the board of directors at Ford sound like they're getting a little antsy about chief executive officer Alan Mulally and his plans for 2014.
According to Reuters, as news of Mulally's possible departure to Microsoft continues to swirl, Ford's board is looking to push the affable executive to make a decision about his future sooner rather than later. Apparently, the board is growing concerned that this will-he/won't-he drama may end up distracting the media from covering Ford's other big news events next year - items like the debut of key all-new products like the Mustang and F-150.
So far, the picture for Mulally's eventual successor remains fuzzy, but it's understood that the leading candidate remains the company's chief operating officer, Mark Fields. Just recently, we heard that Mulally will stay until the end of 2014, but a few months ago, Ford seemed open to the idea of him stepping down earlier than that.

Ford recalling 65k Fusions from 2014 and 2015 because key can be removed

Tue, 18 Nov 2014

Ford is recalling an estimated 64,869 examples of the 2014-2015 Fusion, Fusion Energi and Fusion Hybrid in North America because the key can be removed when the vehicle isn't in Park under certain conditions. Specifically, the campaign covers 56,479 units in the US, 6,048 in Canada and 2,342 in Mexico, according to the automaker's tally on November 11.
Ford says a programming problem in the instrument cluster means that the key can be removed 30 minutes after the ignition is turned off, even if the transmission is not in Park. The situation where this could happen seems quite limited, and the company is not aware of any accidents or injuries related to the issue. However, the fault puts the vehicle out of compliance with federal regulations covering theft protection and rollaways, and must be repaired.
The fix is easy: Ford will reprogram the instrument cluster at no cost to consumers. According to Ford spokesperson Kelli Felker in an email to Autoblog, "We will notify customers the week of January 5th." Scroll down to read Ford's announcement.
