I thought the same thing about that photo also being of my car since the hat on the package tray in both pictures "looks" to be positioned the same, the car has the same Federal deck lights and there is no unit number on the roof.

I'll check tonight.

The vid-caps are from 2006, and the episode was filmed in '94. IIRC, there is a bunch of footage of that car in the clip, but I'll take a look.

I chose those two pics for the resto doc because they showed the different deck lights and lo-jack (and the unit number).

That's two that we've identified from the footage.

Here you go....fresh capture showing the unit number. BTW...Trooper Tim Brown drove it.

Mike,

Thanks. That's neat!!!!

Yep...kinda small world, huh?

I lived in Vero for years, BTW.

BTW the next time you are in Vero stop by, you were a mere 30 minutes from the shop and my SSP was parked out front ! And it is kind of embarassing to get beat to a car in my own backyard, I was working in Sebastian until just a few months ago.

I used to do alot of fishing in the Sebastian area, and when I was a kid, we'd always hit the inlet there.

I still have family in the area but it's a longer drive now.

Sorry to bring up an old thread(noob to this forum), but do you know if it's Trp. Tim Brown or Trp. Ralph Lola that drove it?

Here is Ralph second from the left:

Third from the right next to the suit:

Welcome to the forum....in the video it's Trooper Brown driving that one.

Thanks for the welcome! Anyone know if they are driving Lola's old car? If so I can ask him and find out what his unit # was.
