The temperature at Parade time was 85deg with the dew point at 70. I melted like an M&M.
The 88 never got close to overheating and was well liked by the City.

Have an old siren under the hood kids are surprised to hear it. Local police chief is trying to find 60s style blue light. Been invited to two more police events.

Only red lights in the 60s around here, late, late 70s before blue, I saw a lot of them in my rear view.

LOL

I had a converter installed in car so I can put lights on car. I have a few police friends trying to get me more date correct lighting. It is fun to dress it up.
