Anyone want an ex-OHP charger???

[4play]

I agree the hi-po cars are probably better vehicles on the surplus end, but a charger?
These things literally fall apart with soccer moms driving them. I would hate to buy one thats been "abused" at whatever level a LEO has put them through. This aspect is really where the CVPI can shine, there is still going to be plenty of car left in the after-life.

Just think about how many hours those vehicles have spent sitting on the side of the road at idle. this is what would make me not want to have one.

Ive got a 03 crown vic ex-TPD K9 car. only problem i had was the ac compressor going out. other than that, which was a relatively easy fix, its been a good car.

The Chargers have a short civilian life. I would imagine a well worn police package Charger would be a ticking time bomb. I would rather buy a Crown Vic with 200k miles than a Charger with 80k.

AC would have been a $900+ fix for the compressor.

They do have a kick butt suspension system though

everytime I think of someone buying a used black and white. I think of The Blues Brothers.

It's got a cop motor, a 440 cubic inch plant, it's got cop tires, cop suspensions, cop shocks. It's a model made before catalytic converters so it'll run good on regular gas. What do you say, is it the new Bluesmobile or what?

Classic!

I`m a big fan of the cvpi...had 3 of them and never had one major problem. All of them were $3k or less.
