Jim N Posted May 31, 2019 Posted May 31, 2019 Great looking model and an excellent idea to build it as a tribute to a fallen officer.
bbowser Posted June 1, 2019 Posted June 1, 2019 Those Impalas made great looking cruisers. Well done!
jefropas Posted June 1, 2019 Posted June 1, 2019 They may have been decent looking, but they were total slugs on patrol.....I was assigned 2 of em back in the day...ugh. Nice tribute! Jeff
MeatMan Posted June 1, 2019 Posted June 1, 2019 Kudos to you on the reason for the build, and the build itself. Ohio, represent!
LouO Posted June 6, 2019 Posted June 6, 2019 Unfortunate story behind it https://www.odmp.org/officer/23424-patrolman-justin-a-leo RIP Justin. Nice model and excellent craftsmanship.
GLMFAA1 Posted June 6, 2019 Author Posted June 6, 2019 (edited) Thanks for all the nice comments, Interesting was that I wanted to hand deliver to the police chief but he wasn't in so I left it with the watch officer and was told I would get a call from the chief the next day...................still waiting greg Edited June 6, 2019 by GLMFAA1 missed word
