This is a therapy group right?

Put another 1000 kms on the Ram yesterday to rescue another orphan, I will eventually restore this one back to its in-service condition when it was a cruiser for Windsor Police.

Anyway, here's my new 85 Caravelle police package, Car #591.

Step 1 is admitting you have a problem....

When you get to the step where you have too many projects we will have an intervention....we need parts lol
 
Looks awesome! Let me know if you need any police equipment, I might be able to dig something up.
 
I have the same affliction! I hope the front frame rails are good...a bad spot on these. Looks like you'll need an UCA on the driver's side. The FMJ cars are prone to rust out on the UCA and then they will pretzel in a turn...ask me how I know!

I would really appreciate it. I will need some equipment for sure.

I'm hoping that's my issue, the car seems extremely solid and clean.

My friends boss is trying to talk me into storing it in the barn with my convertible.

I've been in contact with Windsor Police Service, and I'm happy to say they are being co-operative with the restoration, the current fleet manager is digging me up some pictures and information.

Are you going with the current Unmarked look? Or Radio car with all the trimmings?

Mine was originally a Marked car, the one in the photo is #560, mine is #591, I found where the holes are in the roof for the antenna and lightbar power wire, the doors and roof show evidence of being white.
