Finally made Chief of Police
This was the only way I could achieve this rank. I made some Magnetic Signs for "Miss Tillie" and will use them in parades and shows only, as they can scratch the finish if left on for any time. It is also a good idea to wax the back of the magnetic material and ALWAYS clean the door first.
I just wonder if a 1930 Chief of Police would have had Whitewalls? I don't think so as our country was in the midst of the Great Depression. But this is a "Fun Car" anyway, 83 years later. |

Looks awesome. I'll have to be careful whenever I'm driving through Toledo :-)

Re: Finally made Chief of Police
My question is why did you want to be chief of police. Why not Henry Ford ?

Re: Finally made Chief of Police
To Luckyal, I already was Henry, and to Mitch, no it's all make-believe. These days that's about all that works.....HaHa.
Sure does get the Gawks... And lot's of questions. Usually from the youngsters; "How Fast Will It Go?" I tell them it will go 60 mph in 15 minutes.............(on a good day with a tail wind) |

Re: Finally made Chief of Police
Very cool, If it was going to be a permanent display, a hand crank siren would be cool. I had one when I was a kid that I had pulled off of the fender of old Ambulance that had been converted from a Hearse. Used to drive the neighborhood dogs nuts! Not to mention my folks.

Re: Finally made Chief of Police
I wish I still had mine, long lost along with the rest of my youth...
You could make a magnetic sign for your visor too for a frontal effect. This is an internet photo, I have no additional knowledge of it.

Barney Fife never made it to Chief either so don't feel bad. Your car looks great....
