Vintage CHP livery, black with white roof and front doors. Should be done in a couple days.

 

Lookin foward to seeing pictures after paint. Should make a cool theme car

 

"No... that's not me..."

HAHA, was gonna say...lay off the beer will ya!

Awesome car though...post some after pics!

 

Wow, this thread is on my watch list for sure. Waiting for final pictures.

I've love it when someone does something different.

 

Cool, I love cop's cars.

 

I just discovered I can post here!

So my 64 super 88 has the body work done, and first colour applied...

The body was rust free (some surface) and pretty straight for a 45 year old car

Front doors and roof got first colour...

The 88 has some very cool lines the black should emphasize... Black gets sprayed Thursday or Friday.

The box is covering my trailer hitch... I use this puppy to haul my travel trailer.
I can't wait to see it with all the chrome back on! I do need the front fender Super 88 script though.

and yes... camera phone = lousy pictures...

 

Updated pictures in the major project or whatever forum... didn't know I could post there yet

 

Subscribed thread

 

That is going to be soooo cool. Can't wait to see it. Do you have some bubble gum lights for the roof?

 

Need a pump shot gun?

 

I have a funky old bubble light, but I am looking for a larger one. Mine is rather 50's looking. Still... it will look neat.

Siren is installled, Have police radio and search light, whip antenna....


um... I'll pass onthe fire arms lol!

 

threads have been merged...

 

Getting stoked. Black paint starts today or tomorrow. I should have some cool pictures by Monday. Then I have to put the brightwork back on again. I am still looking for at least one Super 88 script for the passenger front fender. I can make one out of the two broken ones that came ith the car. Rear bumper is an issue too.... none to be found it seems.

 

Out of the paint booth, ready for tires and trim!

Need to decide on door markings now.

Traditional CHP style, but I am ordering a gumball light instead of the fender mount beacon/stop light

 

Looking fantastic. Can't wait to see the finished product!

 

Looks good.....

 

Thats going to be fun. I can just see you pulling over chicks, what a kick

 

Cool car; that box you had gave me an idea...put a chute pack over the hitch for daily use ..and when you go on picnics you can pull out a table cloth and/or ground cover from the pack...

 

That is awsome! I look forward to seeing the final pics. Who painted it for you? Did you do all of the prep work yourself?

 

Very nice. Two things...........pusher bars and a spotlight!

 

That's great!

If I could pack it so it would fly out like a chute and cover the ground....


Anyway, the kids and I washed it and put the door handles on it, as wellas some more trim. It's looking great.
Should finish it next week sometime. Just in time for the Father's day car show.

 

I think we all know who the man is!

 

Gromit Dog I drove by the car the other morning as it was coming out of the both . gonna be a sweet ride

 

The car lives at my shop, in Pine tree Centre. Stop by anytime

The interiour went back in Friday. it's really coming together!

 

Which shop do you work out of ?

 

I have Dean brothers Automotive. It's sort of across from the detail place. Used to be Errington Mechanical, but I took it over a while back.

 

I`ll have to pop in for sure I have to go see the detail guy tommorow
will make a perfect excuse to check your car out

 

Sounds good, see you then!

Errington is the community I work in, and db Automotive Ltd (centre of Star) is Dean brothers Automotive... My company The script on the rear fender says "To Service and Repair"

 

Since Richard got finished up, this is my favorite thread. This is way cool.

 

Oh man, that looks great! So cool.

 

Sweet can`t wait to see it today it turned out awesome

 

Great job. the bubble gum machine cop light really tops it off as an old school cop car. Got chased by a few of these in the day.
