Here is MotorMax 2012 Dodge Charger diecast, stripped the B&W paint , made a partition, added lights/siren/radio controls, put a push bar and light bar from Lindbergs Charger police kit, decals are from Bozo. This a total what if, Phx Pd does not use Dodges, well not yet anyways

I still need to add some antennas, will later on

[Danno]

Interesting.


Nice build.


Needs antennae! (But don't overdo it ~ have you seen the newer PPD units?)

Nice build... speaking of 2011+ police Chargers, I was in San Francisco last week for a tech conference and saw a couple of SFPD '11+ Chargers...look really slick at night w/ the full width taillights...

Surprise AZ and MCSO have 'em. Very sharp!

I want to say I El Mirage has some, but I am not 100% sure , I have seen and do see Surprise PD 2011/12 Chargers all the time now.

Dan, I have , but dont think I recall the antenna's on them, last I knew, PPD was using the the very short antenna on the trunk(pr two if stupidviser unit ) when they switch over to the Digital radio system back in the mid 2000's . I know for awhile they had the four low-jack spikes on the roof

I am going to add the antenna's, and would love to replace the diecast wheels with the Police wheels from the Lindberg Charger, but dont have any , I am trying to decided on either going low porfile (UC style tube) or regular style antenna, the later will require me to get a new small bit, I broke the one I had drilling the holes for the spot lights

End of novel here

Edit start of of new novel, MCSO now has a new 2012 Chevy Caprice, its out here in District 3, saw one last week we were heading SB on Dysart

I haven't noticed if any of the East Valley PDs have the '11+ Chargers. I've seen the MCSO ones around.

[Danno]

Oooooh! Ooooooh! Francis!

Whoa. Sheriff Joe! {I haven't seen the new Caprice on the street yet.} Got 'em already, huh, Joe!?!

That looks great, cool license plate.

Be careful out in Buckeye, they have an all black plain wrapper 2012 Mustang. Even the windows are dark.

I have for a very long time avoided going to buckeye

[Rob Hall]

Hmmm....Buckeye...don't think I've ever been to Buckeye...about the only time I go to the Westside is when I go to the racetrack (Avondale?) or am driving across the void to LA/OC on I-10...

I-10 to CA would take you past all six Buckeye exits.

Haven't gotten off at them, though. Usually I can make it to the state line before making a fuel or bio break..

You need to at least stop in Goodyear and see the new Brass Armadillo Antique mall.

Cool..I've been going to the one on I-17 in Phoenix off and on for years..

[martinfan5]

Before we moved, when we lived on 195th ave, the house was on the east side of 195th and that was county, on the west side of 195th was Buckeye

FWIW, I did a test fit of the 2011/12 diecast Charger body to the Lindberg Charger chassis and its a perfect fit.

Is that the 'bio break' Rob was referring to?
