Full rebuilt and detailed Motormax 1/24th scale Crown Victoria. Paint is Tamiya Metalic Blue and the decals are from Code7/Accuscale. Interior is fully detailed, carpeted, additional deck lights added as well dual radar antennas.

Wheels were moved inwards and detailed with simulated wheel weights, the front bumper sports a handmade wrap around pushbar and I added strobes to the rear view mirrors.

Interior details also include seat upholstery decals that I made.

The roof antennas are for the Lojack unit which is a stolen vehicle recovery/tracking unit. Each coordinate, NE SE NW SW, has it's own antenna.

Hmmmmm.... I would think they would have gone beyond the "four giant antennas" technology into a self-contained unit.

But then again... what do I know? B)

Nice model. Harry, I've seen some police cars with even more antennae than those . . . soon when they switch to a robotic officer force the electronics will be on the officer, not the car! The cars will just be a holding cell on wheels picking up all the young folks who refuse to work in the only place hiring: McDonalds!

(I know, I know, I'm losing my mind!) :lol::D:blink:B):D

Yet another beauty from the master of emergency!

Harry when I retired, the darn car had a radio, siren/light control box, cell phone, lap top computer, rifle, and shotgun inside. This along with the radio on my belt, and personal cell phone literally gave me hundreds of methods to communicate. Trouble is you can only really talk to one person at a time....................

Other problem was an old wide body sergeant such as myself barely fit in the car.

:wacko:
