I have also decided to repair the seatback that was originally in the car as I might use it in the texas car as the seats that were in it were tossed in the garbage long ago before I knew there was something special about them. I can have it built stronger, it just takes $$$...

I will get some pictures of the lightbar when I get it home and add it to my cardomain site along with the rest of the Texas DPS lighting. I think I will throw the lightbar on the car as it sits in the garage. My garage is very messy right now and with me working in D.C. it will be a little while for me to get it cleaned up.

Later!

No prob....glad to help, Matt.

I got a shot of the light bar on top of the car Saturday afternoon but didn't have the cable for the camera to download it.

The car is going to look great with the bar on it.
Thanks again Mike.

Here's a shot with the jetsonic I got from Mike... Excellent starting point for me as Mike go it all working and left me with the task of detailing... I'm OK with that as it would take me forever to figure out the wiring on this bar if I had to do it myself.

Another big THANKS goes out to Mike.

Not bad I'd say. I think I'm on the right track!

I got a fully working PA200 for this car today as well as a lead on a switchbox for the lights. I still need a CB and a scanner too. I guess I just need to start trying to find the CB, scanner and a repeater antenna and mount.

This car has all the equipment coming along quickly. To bad no one can really tell me for sure what these cars really had in them.

I still need to call Nebraska State Patrol Motor Pool and see if they can give me and information than what I already have.

I got my PA200 Friday as well as my MPH-S80 radar setup and I just need a couple of more items and I can say the car will be ready for paint and be off for that. That is of course as long as there is room for this in the budget. I will be getting some work done on my CHP car next time I am at home too. Can't wait to get that done and post some pictures of that too.

Have a good week everyone and I hope the holiday weekend was goo for everyone too.

I got the Hustler antenna in yesterday. I just need to get a new whip for it and some screws to help hold it in place and that antenna is done! 2 more antennas, 3 mounts and some creative mounting and everything will likely go into place the next time I am at home. Well all but the actual CB and scanner.

I will have 1 more piece to MAKE for that stuff to go into the car but that shouldn't be that bad at all.I looked at the carpet while I was at home this weekend and I still need to clean it up a bit. I think I am going to remove the jute (sp) padding from it and try to get that stuff aired out some and then steam clean the carpet itself. All the stains that are there should come out easily enough.

Anyone have any NOS or maybe lightly used OEM regatta blue floor mats they want to sell? I need to get some interior dye and redo the dashpad.

I also will be prepairing the car for the removal of the engine and transmission so that I can make repairs to the front frame section. WISH ME LUCK on that one!

I hope progress is coming along on everyone elses cars too.
