LAPD Freeway Pursuit Pontiacs


Recommended Posts

I found these 2 pictures on an old H.A.M.B. thread about police cars.

They're 1960 Pontiac Catalinas, "mildly built" and equipped with roll bars, used by the Los Angeles Police Dept.  A poster on the board said they belonged to the LAPD's special Freeway Pursuit unit.  That unit was in charge of chasing down scofflaws on the freeways running thru Los Angeles, until the California Highway Patrol eventually took over that job.
