here is one i did about 2 years ago, painted and built it in 24 hrs.  the light bar is also from the impala cop car but i blacked out the chrome parts and painted clear lenses yellow.  i made the interior light gray instead of dark so you could see things like the dash mounted radar and stuff.

thanks Nick, FYI the AMT Taurus SHO kit (which was the basis of this build) is a pain in the ass kit to build at times.  the whole drive-train kept falling out from the bottom of the car, i had to epoxy glue the 'chassis' to the bottom of the interior tub.  If i would have known how difficult it was i would have used a SHO promo but i would have to give up the flat disc style hubcaps that were on my model.

can older builds enter this little community build?  I took these photos for a model i built for a Buffalo model show (did not even place, but i had a good time).  The police car from the Robocop film series, done MY way ;).

the kit was 100% box stock only i used the Impala bar, but i painted the chrome parts black and added clear yellow to the clear white lenses.  the whole model start to finish was done in 24 hrs, good thing the real cars were painted flat black :lol:.
