Default 1987 WSP - Pic of MY car when in-service!!

How cool is this!? Check this out. I got a mail this morning from the WSP trooper that had my car all four years while in service. Attached was this photo:



What a find. He says he likely has a few more and possibly some shots of it in the snow (as it patrolled the mountain passes). Now THAT would be cool. So interesting seeing it in it's full markings. This totally made my week.

Bernie - It's a double headed unti from Unity. Has a flashing blue light on one side and a clear light on the other - does double duty.

Cool, I've never seen one. I suppose they would be kinda hard to find.

Very cool! It's great to find in-service pics but even better when it's your own car!

I spent an hour on the phone yesterday talking to the Trooper who drove my car in-service. He had some great stories!
