Thanks. The academy museum loved the repairs and clean up job on it.
The Sgt. has been wanting to drive this car for a long time. She couldn't wait to hop in it.
We took it out to the EVOC track. They had cadets on the track, so we returned to the hanger with it.
No interior pictures, you really wouldn't want to see that LOLOL
The real ones were tan ( camel ) color inside. This one is black. And not really stock LOL
They did install a shotgun rack, not sure it is correct, but it's in there and the correct radio head and federal siren - light control.
This car was actually used as a P.R. tool. An officer would drive it at drag race tracks. Teenagers or anyone could sign up to race the officer.
Of course they would get some info on why not to drag race on the streets.
After the race, each entrant would get a yellow " get out of jail free " card signed by the officer they raced.
There is a 3 page story on the car in I think it's the Sept. 1999 issue of the California Highway Patrolman magazine.
Lots of thumbs up towing it down there LOL
