Regardless of the background, I love the car.
Hard to imagine a HWP car coming with a 318 and being a 2 door hardtop.
Of course a pic of the speedo and the VIN plate(s).
Aw, the heck with it. How about a ton more pictures. It's cool.
Damn, I hate it when Stans right.
How do fellows know what State had in a specific year? I can understand California or New York but North Dakota:reading:

Well for one its was data collected from LEAA Law Enforcement Assistance Administration Grants involving patrol cars and information files in 1972. Its lists the detail of patrol car purchases by police dept. for 1972. North Dakota paid 2614.00 for the Olds as compared to 3569.00 Texas pd. for Fury III .

You can find the information in Chrysler-Dodge-Plymouth police cars 1956-1978 By Edwin Sanow & John Bellah..too.

Looks great but no 140 speedo makes it highly unlikely it was a built for duty police car.

Just to clarify most likely not for police service but they probably could order an A38 package heavy duty.
The last official year of a 2dr post or hardtop fuselage body police car was 1970. http://www.hamtramck-historical.com/images/dealerships/FleetBook/1970/70_Fleet_Police_taxi0001.jpg
I know of one all white with dual 5 in spotlights out of Colorado.
