I can definitely walk you through the placement of the gear when ready.

As for the 1310 Numbers on the driver side fender...that's not a magnet. Those were Hillman mailbox decals (roughly 1-1.5 inch rectangle style) and were permanently placed on the fender. That was the only thing I left on the car. The rest of the magnets were stowed for takeoff.

You did get the light bar, too, yes? (even if you don't ever use it again, would be good to have).

Ryan,

Thanks for the information and messages. Your willingness to help me with the equipment placement is GREATLY appreciated!

I assumed that the 1310 numbers were on a magnet because they were not shown on the photos by the museum. Either they removed them, or perhaps Buddy did prior to selling the car to them.

I did not purchase the lightbar from the museum. They wanted a lot of coin for it, and shipping would have been expensive (remember they sold and shipped the car without any of the equipment, which I purchased separately). I plan to equip the car with the correct lighting as was used on the blue unmarked PCSD car. My car will honor the story about one of their red traffic units having its lightbar stolen while in-service, which they turned into a slicktop. My PCSD may not be the same car, but it makes for a great story and honors the agency.

Here's another shot from Bobby. Still needs to be buffed out, but it is coming along nicely!
