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.

Ford recalls 83k Taurus and crossover models for halfshaft issue

Fri, 15 Aug 2014

Ford and the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration have issued a recall for some 83,250 vehicles in the US, for an issue with halfshafts. More specifically a "halfshaft retention circlip" might not have been properly installed on affected vehicles, with the result being halfshafts that may move improperly or disengage completely from the linkshaft while driving. The NHTSA release also notes that the issue may occur "without prior warning" which obviously factors in to the timeliness of getting this checked.
Should the halfshaft disengage, a few troubling things could happen. If it occurs while driving, power from the engine will no longer be transmitted to the wheels. And, if the vehicle is parked without the parking brake applied after disengagement of the circlip, vehicles may roll away even if they're transmissions have been placed in "Park."
Affected vehicles are as follows: Ford Edge and Lincoln MKX crossovers from model years 2012 to 2014; Ford Taurus and Lincoln MKS sedans from model years 2013 to 2014; Ford Flex and Lincoln MKT vehicles from model years 2013 to 2014.

Ford Green Zone works magic with GPS to make your drive smarter, cleaner

Fri, Aug 29 2014

For the most part, plug-in hybrids rely on the power stored in the battery until that charge is depleted. Unless the switch can be changed manually, it's only then that the cars fire up the internal combustion engine and begin using the fossil fuels on board. This is ideal, of course, when one's drive isn't long enough that the car needs to start sipping gasoline at all. On longer commutes, when it's certain that the route is longer than the car's all-electric range, this isn't necessarily the most efficient use of energy. Ford's Green Zone system is designed to save some of that juice for the parts of the drive that require slower speeds. Ford is working on a smart system, based on Nokia mapping technology, that uses GPS data to use both the electricity and conventional fuel more efficiently. Since battery power is less efficient at highway speeds, Ford's Green Zone system is designed to save some of that juice for the parts of the drive that require slower speeds, rather than just using up all the electrons right at the beginning of the drive. Using a website or the in-car navigation system, the driver can pinpoint the parts of the route, highlighted in green, where using battery power would be more effective, and set the car to automatically switch to electricity for those sections. Depending on the route, the car could automatically switch back and forth between the two power sources multiple times, particularly if the drive is a mix between city and highway driving. Of course, Green Zone will be go beyond that. The program is being developed to take traffic and road grade into account, details that allow the car to be make even smarter choices to improve efficiency. Ford even hopes to have Green Zone learn driver habits, and respond accordingly depending on who is driving the car. The system could control other features as well, such as anticipating corners and shifting the headlights to better illuminate the road ahead. Green Zone could also potentially use information from vehicle-to-vehicle networking to control functions in the car. The Green Zone system still has a few years before it will be ready to be put into production vehicles, but Ford is confident it will make its way onto the road eventually. As with other innovations that improve efficiency and make our vehicles smarter, we can expect to see similar technology from other manufacturers, until it becomes a regular part of driving in the future.

Recharge Wrap-up: BMW tests AdBlue pumps, Drivr is a Tesla taxi service

Thu, Jan 22 2015

BMW is testing AdBlue pumps in Germany. AdBlue fluid is used to remove NOx from diesel exhaust, and it is stored in its own tank within the vehicle. Filling AdBlue is easy enough for drivers to do it themselves, and with the proliferation of diesel vehicles in Europe, a pump filling system could make more sense than using the current hand-held containers. BMW is testing AdBlue pumps at three fueling stations in Munich and Berlin to help develop further AdBlue dispenser technology. Read more at Green Car Congress. Drivr Green Personal Transportation is a Tesla taxi service in Cincinnati. Two former employees of Tesla Motors founded the startup, which bills itself alongside ride-hailing services like Uber and Lyft. Customers book a ride online, and are picked up by a Tesla Model S. The ride costs $2.50 per mile with a $15 minimum. Drivr currently operates three cars with seven drivers, with plans to lease another 10 Teslas and employ up to 30 drivers. The service will also be expanding to Denver soon, according to the website. Learn more at the Drivr website, or read more at Clean Technica. Ford is opening a research and development facility in Silicon Valley. The Ford Research & Innovation Center, which will be located less than three miles from Tesla Motors headquarters in Palo Alto, California, is expected to be one of the automotive industry's largest R&D facilities. "We're driving to be both a product and a mobility company, and ultimately to change the way the world moves," says Ford CEO Mark Fields. Read more at Automotive News. Law firms advising Fisker Automotive have been denied a $2.50-million fee enhancement in the car company's bankruptcy. Brown Rudnick LLP and Saul Ewing LLP were denied the extra fees, as a Delaware bankruptcy judge ruled there is "no evidence" that the firms provided anything more than what they originally expected. In denying the fee enhancement, the judge cited a "very high bar" for such awards. Read more at Law360.
