'06-'09' Impala Police Die cast ever coming out????
Posted by Popcop45 on Monday, September 7, 2009 4:47 PM
I am into 1/18 custom die cast police, and I can't remember when a model took longer to debut than this one. It's been three years already and no sign of one coming out. Anyone heard or catch any info on this one yet?

Do you have a Michigan State Police?  If so, how hard was it to find the hood sign and red bubble light for the roof?

I sure do. I use corel draw. Some decals are made from scratch,others are from photos. I have some before/after photos I'll post soon. I usually work on two or three cars at once to try and get the most out of my decal sheets. Right now I am working on a four vehicle sheet.

Actually I painted a 2000 crown vic in old police ny colors; and used a red bubble gum light I found at my local Radio Shack. I also had to custom build the old Federal Pulsator siren out of a small piece of brake line, and I shaped it with bondo. On this one I have no before photos, just work in progress ones.

I'd like to make a 1/18 Chicago Police Monaco and an Illinois State Police Monaco to display with my 1/18 Bluesmobile.Have you done anything with that particular sedan?

Yes, I have plans to repaint the bluesmobile in old nypd black, green and white. It would look awsome. Unfortunatly there are far too little old sedans in 1/18-most are coupes, except of course for the newer police cars. I've been searching for a Plymouth Fury 1/18 late 60's early 70's but to no avail.
