It's always a good time with the big police sedans when you head to a show or event out of state...
![]() ![]() ...Al Capone's hideout along the Fox river in Illinois. Was interesting to see all the cruisers show up there for dinner.

+1 on a Mercury here, I have been trying to put it back together for the past couple of years. I am trying to get some stuff mocked up and fabbed over the winter. For how many '69 CHP cars that seemed to have survived, it seems that hardly any '68's did. I had one that was a wreck, hoping to find enough of another car to make it back into whole one, but it was not to be.
Sam, if your dad has one, I could use pictures of some areas that are giving me problems. Having not been the one that disassembled the car, I am struggling with some of the reassembly. Also could use some parts if anyone out west sees any 70's in yards...

Doesn't look like there is too much further to go there actually. Decals, some hand lettering for the unit number, emergency equipment and you should be solid!

Looks like EBay pulled it?

Probably because it is a fully-marked police car. It looks like they have been cracking down lately.

I've seen that as well, and it's been discussed on two forums that I've seen. Ebay makes no distinction between a late-model CVPI or a 50 year old antique police car. If it has lights and markings then they are policing themselves (pun intended) and pulling those ads.

We'll see how long that lasts. Ebay is as capitalistic as any company you'll find. My sense is they'll make a good show of it for awhile and then things will ease up somewhat.
