I caught wind of this on Thursday when a friend was going to check it out. It got parted pretty quick.
It was a genuine CHP car that was not a B&W, the green was its original color, only the second one I have ever seen.
It still had spotlights and a push bar.

I'm waiting for mor picture from him.

Here is a report on this car,
Car was originally a turquoise detective car that may have been turned into a B&W and later painted green. Detective cars typically didn't have spotlights, push bars and shotgun mounts.

The engine went quick,

There was a broadcast sheet in the rear seat but to a CHP B&W

There is some good sheet metal, floors are rusted bad. Grill is pitted bad.

way late to the party... anybody know what or IF this one was ever offered as a complete car?

Anyway, she lives on in parts. .
 
Looks like no notes on the bottom of the build sheet? A CHP car usually has "California Hwy Patrol" or something similar on the bottom of the sheet. There will also be a lot of "99" codes on the equipment list because of all the special order CHP specific parts.

My known genuine CHP was not marked on the broadcast sheet. I did see this broadcast sheet in person and the codes were there, again the sheet does not belong to this car.
As for this car, it had multiple markers to indicate that it was a genuine CHP used car. These are things done to the car by the CHP and not Dodge or other agencies.

I highly doubt it, with all the people that regularly scan Craigslist and other forums, you'd thing it would have shown up.

Any luck Alan?
I gave the couple bent originals to a friend and have a couple new ones made. The new ones were exact and once painted could not be told apart.

I'll check with my friend and see what he can spare. I know he picked up another one recently.
