Default Four Eyed Pride Posting CHP Hatchback

I was looking around the FEP site and had noticed this string:

http://vb.foureyedpride.com/showthre...96#post1247696

I'm not registered there and I would like to say that the photo of the Mustang is not an "inservice" shot and for reference, this is the shot they are talking about there:



This was from the re-enactment of a Mustang being inservice for CHP on a television show special with Bill Goldberg. The show name escapes me right now but it dealt with all forms of copcars including Jeff L. with the Nevada HP Fury and a few other collectors showing their cars (including the former Chief of Bell CA PD) to Bill and him explaining all the history of copcars since the 20's.

So in answer to the question for FEP, no that is not an inservice shot.

The name of the show was Automaniac and it was on the History Channel. I still have a tape of that one featuring the history of the American police car. The '82 was featured chasing, what else-a Porsche:



Owner Kevin M. got some screen time in that re-enactment.
