Hometown 1955 Buick Cop Car.

Ok so i did this the day my school had a tragic event not on porpose but just because i had a cop car that i though was already close to my hometowns current cop cars scheme. I blacked out the wheels because huge chrome wheels seemed to flashy for cops. added a gold stripe and police logo and heres what came out. oh yah and the picture of the car was taken on top of my 1992 buick riviera(just a useless note)

Almost looks like a cop car from the old " Highway Patrol " TV show.

Late 50's early 60's Cops an Robbers show. Brodrick Crawford was the star. He's gone now too. Funny, I thought of "Highway Patrol" right away too! Nice model, it brings back some nice memories!

You can watch full episodes on youtube if interested. Kind of corny by today standards but not bad.

Nice conversion Jake.

The CHP car was done in 1/26 scale.

Hosted on Fotki

Mira made a black & white 1/18 several years ago but I don't remember if it was an actual CHP car.
