Police Boxed

Car is a Lindberg, Crown Victoria 1/25 scale plastic model kit. I painted it gloss black and white, detailed the hubcaps, added chrome bumper molding, San Diego Police-Chimneyville decals, A Federal Twinsonic-Dave Panek lightbar, scratch built the mounting brackets for the light bar, scale roof and truck antennas, painted interior with detailed shotgun, computer, PR-24, a scratch built ticket book on the dash made from folded paper and tape for the strap, and a scratch built coffee cup on the dash made from plastic sprue, metal wire, and I drilled out the center and added brown paint to look like coffee. This car is an exact replica of the car I used to drive. I also scratch built the yellow crime scene tape out of real crime scene tape that I cut down to scale. Used a small piece of plastic tube to roll it, a glue wash to hold it in place, then rubbed on the words using dry transfer lettering.

Lindberg 1/25 scale Crown Victoria plastic model kit. I painted it gloss black and white, added Accu-Scale/Code-7 decals for the Ventura County, CA Sheriff's Department. Painted and detailed the interior with computer, dash mounted radar with wiring, detailed the push bumper with chrome foil on the lights, then painted with red and blue clear paint, and detailed-painted the V-style lightbar. I also added several antennas, painted the spotlight housings flat black and added a scratch built GPS, round antenna on the trunklid.
