I actually found this exact burb for sale on Craigslist but didn’t know what it was until weeks later. I was heading down to rent a trailer but recent divorce led to me bailing on the deal. It was like $1500. Going thru old newspapers I found out they built two. One for the Sierra Nevada range on I80 and one for the grapevine in SoCal. I saw it again for sale for about $4000 a year later. I run wanted ads from time to time

Reading fail. Thought it was random cop cars and it’s your Towns cars. |

CHP always experimented more with the bikes. Here in MD for a while I saw some super modern BMWs but haven't seen anything but Harleys since. There used to be a thing about buying American for public service/municipal vehicles. I guess with bikes that can vary.
I found a bunch of pictures of MSP vehicle but I wasn't allowed to save them. There was a picture of a Fury or other mid-60s sedan with dual 2 1/2" pipes run straight out the back hot rod style. I was riding in the back seat of a rumbling Fury, probably around 71/72. It sounded bad to the bone . When we got to dual hiway I asked, "Let's see what she'll do", just being a smart-a. Well, he did just that! Opened her up wide-a-open! Woo Hoo! I was thinking the whole getting arrested thing was not so bad after all :lol: It's funny looking at all the trooper cruisers and not seeing the swapped caps. I think it was a thing they "allowed" but didn't really want it displayed in pictures. Image thing, you know. But I did find this one and a Chevy with trim rings |

I was an MP at Ft. Lewis in the late 70's. We had 4 door Volares with 318's. They were soooo slow.

I guess for on base patrol they didn't spring for the interceptor pkg. I see small towns or even cities with their wimpy cars. That's what I like about the state boys and some counties. They get the hot set-up, special suspension, tires, engine, etc

This old Police Car has been on display at Landry's on the Kemah Boardwalk for years.

I like seeing the old ones honored like that. I took a picture of a late '30s Chevy State Police car at the Taos, NM station with my kids by it. It's a print

Re: Pic Thread: Police Vehicles
Those have got to be the hottest '67 cop cars ever. Sport coupes and all! Looks like they have disc brakes

Re: Pic Thread: Police Vehicles
I don't have any pics but I do remember an Ark State Trooper telling me in the 60's he had one of two 2 door 409/4 speed cars in the ASP. A real pursuit vehicle. And as if the car wasn't fast enough he took it to a couple of racers garages to tweak the tune up too.

Ha Ha. If you can't out run a Chevette then you deserve to go to jail. :lol: I had a Chevette (company car) What a total POS. I hated that thing. Cheapskate company. :mad: This is more like it. It's got a cop motor, a 440 cubic inch plant, it's got cop tires, cop suspensions, cop shocks. It's a model made before catalytic converters so it'll run good on regular gas. What do you say, is it the new Bluesmobile or what? http://67-72chevytrucks.com/gallery/...ues-Prison.jpg |

Those Buicks remind me of the 50's cop show Highway Patrol. Broderick Crawford was Dan Matthews. Yeah, I remember watching it. ;)

Here's a couple from my collection of work pictures. The SUV was taken while parked on the Torrey Pines golf course. The other, white rhino, is what we were driving when I started out.
