Art & Inspiration Vintage Police Car & Truck picture thread.

Would love to see some Vintage Police Car & Truck pictures. Show me what you have !

 

This is all I got. I find this subject very interesting.

 

Here is my lovely wife next to our '57. It is a daily driver.

 

Oh, and we like firetrucks too! These are both new additions.

 

heres my first memorie of pre-50's vehicle--growin up with this in our back yard.. 1925 la france

 

wow!! this is super nice! where in the world did you find the siren? that's something else.

 

Thanks, The siren was on it. We believe it saw police duty in Parma Ohio originally. If you look close, the 59 Chevy firetruck has the same light and siren.

How about this one?

BS

 

My buddy has an ex-Kansas hi-way patrol 56 Ford. I'll see if I can snag a pic. Lippy

 

any problems with the cops being a daily driver?

 

Nope. When we first got it I took it to the Police station and they said it was fine as long as I did not use the lights and siren while driving. They said if I did there would be trouble. Just to be safe I installed a disconnect for the emergency equipment. It is the most reliable and most comfortable car I have ever owned. It is amazing how many people are intrigued by the car. It draws so many car and non car people. One day at work, I had the car parked out front and there were 4 women in there 50's posing next to it taking pictures. Equally amazing is the amount of people that slow down when they see it.

 

Here's a few I've saved from various sources.

 

I see this around town every once in awhile with Barney behind the wheel.
