Subject: Great, here goes another piece of our freedoms. Ban daily drivers. What's next? Ban all restored white police cars, because white is too close to reality? Most current squads are white, remember? And you sure do forget that when the hobby started, most in the hobby started out with daily drivers that were then restored. But maybe you are not in the hobby and wouldn't know much about it? Author: Giant [ Next Thread | Previous Thread | Next Message | Previous Message ] Date Posted: 09:39:40 08/28/02 Wed In reply to: Bryan 's message, "irresponsibility" on 22:26:53 08/27/02 Tue And to Grainy's 20 year + comment: As much as I agree with almost everything he said, the age limit of 20 + years simply doesn't make sense. Tom W.'s '91 Crown Vic looks closer to a late 70s LTD than a '92 Crown Vic. I bet most folks think it's a much older vehicle anyway. The point is about modern looking cars aka '91 and newer Caprices, '92 and newer looking Crown Vics etc. etc. that closely resemble of what's in service currently across the country. And yes, freedoms include rights and privileges. Owning a police car is not a right, it is only a privilege which is lost due to irresponsible conduct. Banning daily driver's? Hmmm, maybe Bryan thinks daily drivers kill? And I think Bob had the best comment. Get authorized by the department you are displaying for or seek a letter of introduction, if you are not affiliated with an agency. Or better yet, get affiliated.

Subject Author Date Listen, half-wit Bryan 13:28:34 08/28/02 Wed Bryan: point taken, sir....................but, those 1991+ Caprices in particular will be gone sooner than anybody wants to admit to...........and will indeed qualify as 20+ YO vehicles in less than 8 years.................and will be damn near impossible to find............as it stands: the first 1991 big Chevy's came out in early 1990...............over 12 years ago! And, to be honest, IMHO; one would be wise in stockpiling 'police' only parts for the 1990's cars.............in particular the Caprice. Hell, it has been out of production for well over 5 years now. (NT) -- Bearhawke in Az (where there ARE still 1994-96 Caprices STILL in service), 19:27:52 08/28/02 Wed True. A 1991 Caprice is 11 years old, but as you stated yourself you live in a place where 94 to 96s are still in service -- Bryan, 22:00:28 08/28/02 Wed I've been to plenty -- DA, 09:43:23 08/29/02 Thu
