Nice police cars!  That must be a French patrol car (with those headlights)!

@karl The Eligor is based on the old plastic Norev. Most of the old Norevs had those uniquely French yellow headlights.

@mg-harv I wondered who Hobby Gear was!  It does look Eligor-ish!  😆

Which no police agency ever bought…

But that didn’t stop GM from including it in their police vehicles brochure.

Corvair Police Brochure

On another note, what did the rest of the world think about North America running around in Cadillac police cars?

Dinky Cadillac RCMP

 

DINKY Cadillac US Police
