New project

I finaly found replacement to my Caprice. It is a 1998 Ford Crown Vic P71. It have served as a Fire deparment car in Cedarville, NJ.

I am hoping it is not as much abused as copcars are. No rust, solid car and what is best; it still has all the original emergency equipment.

Car will be shipped to Finland early 2015 so I will keep you posted what its going to look like!

Here is a pic when it was picked from seller:

Sold, sold sold!

Car is sold, so I wont be updating anything here in future...

Short video about car

More more more toys

There is never enough gizmos in my car.

Managed to find two items from ebay. Been looking those for a while.

First was car camera. Icop is a bit newer model, but it is realy cool. It fits right in to the radio slot and needs no space from the trunk. Got awesome deal on this.

It has cameras front and back. Can´t wait to get this working.

This the other new toy, it is Uniden scanner. Those are realy expensive new, but i got one pretty good price becourse it is refurbished. 

Now I just have to wait until may, when I fly to Boston and get these with me back to Finland. Then it takes few days to get them wired and work in my Caprice.

Will be reporting then more...

For sale or not for sale

For a brief moment I tried to sell my Caprice.

I was asking 10000 euros for it but no real buyers. I think the price was realy reasonable. Have seen these sold in police auction 6000,- dollars but those are in bad condition everything stripped. Just like my car was when i got it. Then it needs shipped here, thats 2000,- and taxes paid about 5000,- .

And it would still need to be rebuild like mine, thats easy 3000-4000,- euros.

So I think my price was very cheap.

Only copcar that i have seen sold, was in England and asking price was 30000,- £ !!!

My plan was to get an other one ( Crown Vic), that would be much less driven, not so old as my Caprice and it could be driven every day as a daily driver. Would had been unmarked one...
Will get one some day.

But for now, I will enjoy my Caprice, add some new toys to it and have fun.

Junkyard find

I managed to make great find in junkyard.

My old rear deck was horrible. Find a right color, decent shape carpet from junkyard. It has been sitting in carage. Finaly it is changed.

Looks good

Even had little help from my dumbass Brother.
