1997 Ford Expedition- Police Dog Unit


Recommended Posts

Another Expedition, done as a police version. I did it differently than the box-stock police version, though I got the idea for the paint job from the box art model. I used a Vector light bar and spotlights from a Lindberg Crown Vic. I also used the kit-supplied roof rack cross bars- the kit supplied-light bar and antennae fit into the holes for those. I mounted the antennae in a different position than the box-stock location. Again, I went with F-150 wheels, but these were stripped of chrome and painted gray, then the hub caps were painted. Both bumpers were also stripped of chrome... in hindsight I probably should have removed the XLT badging from beneath the Expedition scripts.

Once again, a nice, glossy black paint job eludes me, but I'm getting warmer. Decals were nabbed from the Revell '57 Custom and '90 Mustang.
