Hey dude ,

I saw this on the cruise and thought it was ace!

Something so different but as soon as I saw it I knew it was done in a u.s. Cop car paint.

You must have alot of spare time!!!! LOL

Good luck with it and hope to see you out and about in it.

yeah i have few more strobes to put in the reverse lights and head lights. im in the process of "aquiring" one of those flouro light tube cases to make makeshift bar lights. As for the cop car behind me. I did something stupid by over taking a car from the right hand turning lane. I had no idea where the police 4x4 was but they caught upto me at the next lights.

As for the pillar spotties, ive seen them on ebay but as im out of work due to a back injury and well centrelink take their sweet ass time doing anything about payments.. TAC are hacks. I sorta just get by with what i can find laying around the house and at hard rubbish.

haha cool car dude. ive seen something very similar on ebay about 6months ago or so.
What does the 'motto' on the side doors say? I cant read it but i reckon it should say something like "to defect and perve" lol

Good basic mods done, definetely go the SC14 if you wana blow it, I think i read that u know stocky so he might know a thing or 2 about sc14's . LOL

The doors say atm "to serve and protect" but ive had people tell me to change it to "to severe and disrespect"

I saw a vn painted like this yrs and yrs ago up in qld. I asked the guy selling at that point if he ever had the aus cops hound on him. He said it wasnt a daily driver but they still didnt. So i figured it was a better idea than my faded crows feet paint i had on the car and yeah. Since then ive not been picked on for defects or anything else. Only pulled up today for "illegal" lane changing.

Hell when the car used to be bog stock blue i was pulled over daily for "random" licence checks and rego checks. Now i just get the police seeing it as a novility.

Btw thanks LightningVP. I may just take you up on that offer sometime. Im only doing basic driving atm until i can replce the rear tyres. They definately arent upto the police/vic roads standard for tread. My opinion is if you can still see a tread pattern they are safe.
