This is a former patrol vehicle retired from a local police agency. It has the expected holes in the dash trim and the trunk lid from police equipment that has been removed. Both rear door panels have holes from removed window screens. Body has scratches and what appears to be a dent from a deflected gunshot. The spotlight was removed from the driver's door pillar, but the wiring and the mounting hole is intact. Map light is missing from the headliner. Dashboard has some traces of a mystery adhesive that I was unable to remove for fear of damaging the finish. There is no spare or jack. Brakes and shocks appear to be in good condition. The car feels solid like a CVPI should. Tires are RSA's, but will need replacement soon. The department of origin (Las Cruces Police Department, NM) intentionally destroyed all the locks on the car due to so many keyed-alike cars in the fleet, so they have all been replaced with new ones.
Engine runs rough. I am not a mechanic, so the problem has not been diagnosed. It may be a minor or a major issue. No check engine light appears and no trouble codes are displayed. The front header panel (where the headlights sit) was replaced due to damage to the original one.
The low mileage (just under 104k) is unusual for this region. This is a restoreable cruiser. It is offered without a warranty and is not returnable. I can trailer the car within this region for a reasonable fee, if needed. Otherwise, shipping is the responsibility of the winning bidder. If the winner intends to drive this vehicle from point of origin in Southern N.M., a temporary operating permit must be obtained from the New Mexico MVD.

Detroit's new fleet of donated police cars have safety issues [w/video]
Wed, 23 Oct 2013In a show of generosity in mid-August, Detroit's business leaders donated $8 million to the Police Department and Fire Department in order to buy 100 new police vehicles and 23 EMS ambulances. But now officers have discovered - and complained - that the police vehicles have glaring safety issues, Deadline Detroit reports. It is not made clear what models of the fleet vehicles - which include police versions of the Ford Taurus, the Chevrolet Caprice and the Dodge Charger - are affected by the safety issues.
Officers reportedly have complained that the Plexiglass partition separating front-seat officers and back-seat prisoners is easily breached, and that the front passenger seat is installed too close to the dashboard. Prisoners who manage to writhe out of their handcuffs can bend the Plexiglass and reach into the cockpit, and sitting too close to the dashboard can render airbags more dangerous and make officers more vulnerable to injury in a crash.
Mark Diaz, president of the Detroit Police Officers Association, received the complaints and reportedly said the vehicles would get safety updates addressing the issues. But Deadline Detroit reports that it checked some of the offending police cars and, as of the last few days, they hadn't been updated.
Watch NASCAR racer Brad Keselowski do a burnout... in a hotel conference room
Fri, 08 Mar 2013A vast majority of hotels frown upon smoking inside the building these days, but Brad Keselowski doesn't follow the rules. During his introduction at the 2013 MiilerCoors Distribution Convention, the reigning NASCAR Sprint Cup champion smoked the tires of his Miller-sponsored Ford Fusion stock car, adding a pair of thick, black stripes to the carpeting of the Marriott World Center's conference room.
This definitely isn't a high-quality video, but it's the perfect vantage point to watch Keselowski lay down some rubber and receive a well-deserved standing ovation after pulling up in front of the crowd. Check out the short-but-sweet video posted below.
This 2,000-hp Mustang is in serious need of wheelie bars
Tue, 25 Feb 2014The Ford Mustang on the right is drag racing with the standard technique. The Mustang on the left, driven by David Measell, is using a new "rear bumper only" technique that evidently surprised everyone at the South Georgia Motorsports Park strip - including Measell.
Measell said his outfit just bought the car the week before the event, noting that it has more than 2,000 horsepower. Speaking of his "flying" run, Measell said, "We turned it up to dip on down," by which he meant they turned up the power in order to get his time down. Turns out all that power and all that traction sent the nose straight up into the air almost as soon as the race began.
He told an interviewer afterward that this was his first race in a "regular car" since he normally drives a pro-mod. "I like my wheelie bars," he concluded. You can see how he got there in the video below.
