You can't name a model that hasn't been used in law enforcement.

I saw a video someplace where the Chicago police had a little parade when they took delivery of a batch of new police cars in 1932. There were a couple of Phaetons, a bunch of sedans (both two and four door), a roadster or two, and to my surprise, even a 3-window coupe for the detectives.

Perhaps someone here knows where it is.

I couldn't find the one you speak of, but these '32 5-window coupes (4-cylinder) kind'a prove the point. Bad guys in the rumble seat.....Nah! DD





And here's an interesting precursor to 'gumball' machines. DD

1946 police cars. I had to sneak into my old Photobucket file. Now they have me against the wall to pay monthly. I can steal my old pictures but tricky. So I guess I will pay up. Actually they are not police cars but veteran's cars. Hard to read the fine print
