Get door shields made up that say "To Detect and Swerve"!

4DRs can be a real blast. They are automatically lo-key. Your is a real nice body style to do.

OH I forgot to thank psybock from the above posts he offered to draw up some free renderings. I got exactly what I paid for and would like to thank psybock for the drawings that he never did, THANKS for all your help.

just a couple quick rough idears i sketched up...

i think your idea for the car could potentially be awesome. keep up the good work and keep us updated!

[mopork]

FORMULA,

Thanks alot guy, those are very good ideas and thanks for taking the time to do them. I was thinking of doing a black and white LAPD style (doors/roof white-front fenders/hood,quarters black) but I wanted some way to update and modernize that paint scheme so it would be instantly recognized as a police car from a distance but on closer inspection it was a more modern/hotrod look.

Thanks

Hank

I like the second of Formula's renderings, and I really like the shield idea that somebody posted that would say "to protect and swerve" very clever. This is an awesome project though.

Out of curiousity Hank, where did you fine such a clean 71 police car. My dad was a deputy back in 71 and had a new patrol car that year. The abuse patrol cars take while in service, I can not believe how good your car looks in the pictures. It must have been in a warehouse and forgotten or something. Anyway, looks like a cool project.

Bill,

That is new paint in the picture. The car was originally AZ highway patrol car # B234 I bought it from a guy who towed it to ILL, he got a BB Challenger and sold the Coronet to me. I drove it from ILL to MD overnight it ran well but was leaking oil because two rear exhaust studs were missing. There was no rust when i got it, just 1 big dent and door dings. It was an in service patrol vehicle until it reached 60k and was sold at auction to an elderly couple. I just got very lucky.

How about Donut Dodge

Right, that's what i was kinda swingin for. Did I stray too far from the mark? I can do more, as you'd like. just let me know what you think should be changed from either one of the ones I posted. maybe something more like this?

[mopork]

Formula,

Thanks that one is just perfect, good job, I like that one best.

Do you have any ideas for the door shield ? donut dodge etc...

Hank

How about black on the vertical surfaces, and white just on the top? Just have them meet at the body line at the top of the fenders and follow to the back. Maybe divided by a silver pinstripe? I think that would retain the black and white cop car look, but be more modern like you're after.

[mopork]

Hey Cuda,

That's a good idea I will try it out on paper.

Thanks

[mopork]

nnn

Hank, hey buddy i decided to check at p-t.com, it had been a while. I really loved all the renderings of your car. These guys really stepped up and did a stellar job. Nice job Formula and Tony!!!!!!!. I cant wait until we can get together and post a picture of my nasty lawbreaker, getting pulled over by you and mopork. I'll bring the donuts, hahahaha love ya bro. I'll be in moline again working on it, I'll make sure i've got enough good pics for ya to send a disc before the end of the month. Later Dan.
P.S. By the way if you guys could get a hold of me with some rendering ideas, i would be more than happy to warm up my lips, for some serious AS"P" kissing. thanks
