    Vic FAQ

Vic Police is a special SHRINE to the Crown Vic Police Interceptor. This is THE car we all want: heavy duty suspension, bigger rims/tires, dual exhaust, better brakes (read: metal caliper pistons), oil & tranny coolers & interior perks (the 140 speedo is nice!). NEW PI links: PI buying, supplies & clubs! Don't forget to check Charles' '99 PI, Leo's PI & Matt's PI ! Check these '96 PI stats !!! For more PI stats, check Russ' links page, especially Bruce's site.

• UK PIs!!!: Check out Derek's UK based American Emergency Vehicle club!! Amazing PIs in Scotland & i guess all over the UK: "My name's Derek Page and I run an emergency vehicle club in the UK that runs American police vehicles (yeah in the UK!!!) Please find enclosed a picture of our 1995 Ford Crown Vic Interceptor from the Collin County Sheriff's Dept. McKinney, Texas. It's been shipped over here by us and is in a semi-official capacity as we have friends in the department that kitted us out in uniforms etc. when we visited. I would really appreciate it if you could put a link to our website and that you'll take a trip yourself and let me know what you think. The site is at www.911evac.freeserve.co.uk By the way, the picture shows the vision bar with 7 clear pods, the reason for this was that we were about to head out of our county to a show in England (we're in Scotland) and we have to remove the red and blues. Where we live the Police are great, they let us drive around with the red and blue pods on and have no problem. The car is our second as I also have a 1978 NYPD Impala, which is a bit rough but still scares the life out of people in their small euro-boxes!

     • TNT Auctions out of Nevada: 
       http://www.tntauction.com/master-equip.asp?recid=2145 they list by VIN and give a brief narrative of what known problems the vehicle may have.
     • New York: I love this website! It has the VIN of the Crown Vics. always look for the P71 in the VIN.
       http://www.ogs.state.ny.us/surpluspublic/auction/Contents.asp the page lists what known defects are present. Again, a fair amount of caution is necessary, as you may be in for some other repairs. At least with an auction, you can see, touch and smell the car. Ebay doesn't offer that. Not that there may be some fine cars for sale, but some things cannot be conveyed through the Internet. 'Nuff said!
     • State of Oregon: 
       http://tpps.das.state.or.us/surplus/carlot_body.htm this one makes a great bluesmobile! http://tpps.das.state.or.us/surplus/257483.jpg By the way, $4,590 for a 1995 Crown Vic with 109k on the odometer is a bit much. I don't like Oregon's fixed price system.

      

  2. Diversifleet is now longer in business, they have been out of the police car business for quite some time. The new boy on the block so to speak is KC Motor Vehicle-Police Car Sales located in North Kansas City, Missouri. It is Owned and Operated by a Certified Law Enforcement Officer from the State of Missouri. The web site is kcpolicecars.com. They are not affilitated with the former Diversifleet. Keep up the good work

• PI STUFF YOU GOTTA HAVE! 

  1. Check out these SWEET "Ford Police Vehicles" logo air valve caps available from JD at Performance Parts, Inc. They are just $17.99 for a set of 4 plus shipping & handling. These are an official Ford licensed product -- awww...YEAH ! This was a "must-have" for me & are on the way this week. =) Lot's of other cool PI stuff on JDs site, too -- a "Ford Police Vehicles" pencil ? Yep. NOTE: you must have the normal "long" valve stems...watch out if you have the "shorties" that barely clear the wheel.
     

  2. Want a nifty Police Interceptor license plate or decal ? Like these below:
     
     Just e-mail Charles at copcars2@yahoo.com or check his Copcars Page. The decals are $2.50 each + $2.00 shipping for any quantity. The license plates are $10.00 + $4.05 shipping. I also have a few of the 'police interceptor' name plates that are on the 99-00 cars. I sell them for $20 each. I got these before the '99 models came out and then Ford took them off the market for awhile.
