RE: ’62 Cop Car?





Dave,
Yes I agree! Even though it was rough like I said, and with no lettering at all, it still looked like…it just had to be…a cop car. The police car theme seems to have a pretty strong following. In fact, most larger shows I ever attend generally have several “cruisers” (pun intended) show up and often times, they are Mopars. I wouldn’t be surprised if there is a club or web site somewhere out there dedicated to the classic police cars of the past.
I think it’s quite fitting for these cop car owners to want to share their passion along side our cars too, after all, they’re part of what made street racing, awe…I…I mean cruisin’ so much fun, right? And without them, as I recently learned right here, well we wouldn’t even have certain colors like - Bust Me or Arrest Me Reds now would we?
Later,
Dave B
