From: Hachiroku ハチロク on 27 Jul 2010 21:22 Over the years I have seen the Ct State police use just about anything for an unmarked car, the usual Crown Vics, an occasional Chevy Impala of one vintage or another. In the 80's they used Mustang 5.0s and Mazda MX6s for undercover work. Imagine my surprise when on a work trip to Hartford today I see a car pulled over just outside of Enfield, with another car behind it. I didn't notice the first car because of the second car. Then I saw the blue uniform writing a ticket... In one of these... http://cdn.motors.co.uk/d/used-photos/22950/400x/0/0/V619JTO.jpg

Recall many years ago when I lived in the DC area the Maryland State Police used a drug-confiscated 57 Ford Ranchero with a 425HP Ford 427 engine. |
