A lot you must know about police vehicles. The departments do not take off the side moulding. They come from the factory that way, with the door side moulding in the trunk. It is up to the agency whether they want to apply it after they apply their graphics.

So many agencies take the strip of skirting on the front doors off, it seems silly to have left it on in this case. It cuts right through the badge, and it clear isn't that vital, or all the other departments in America would've kept it on too.

Jesus! And there I was saying gumballs were out of place on a 1990s caprice! What's this, a 1998 or 99 CV. They're real scared of change in Racine, aren' they?

Looks like an MP5 in the gun rack. I thought cops usually had shotguns, but the MP5 is certainly a good choice too, if not better.Only a semi-automatic though. I'll shut up now, I know this is copCAR dot com, not copGUN.

Whoa. Bit more than your average fender bender. I'm guessing the caprice was a write off. Anybody know if the cop was OK?

It seems pretty rare to see that kind of lighting display on a mid 1990s car. I like the package though, sharp classic look. You'd think speeders would spot that thing a mile away though.

That pushbar looks strange. Was that in general use, or some kind of training device?

What are those lightbars called? They're really common, but I've never actually known what they are.

I think it's slick how the word Capital is inside the Police. Unique.

Sorry, but spelling of city is incorrect. It is Fond du Lac and not Fon Du Lac. It is French after all.

I want to know what kind of wings they are putting on them if they are flying.

For being Fords, these Crown Vics fly pretty fast. I din't know what the city fleet management puts under those hoods, but it sure makes me feel better that Milwaukee's finest will be on the scene in moments.

Regardless of the year & model, what I noticed first is the amount of damage. Had that been a contemporary vehicle it would likely be totaled. Those were the days - steel bumpers. Even the grill was metal.

Actually, this unfortunate Mopar is a 1960 Plymouth, a Savoy "Fleet Special" is my guess.
