Thanks everyone for the really kind words! Yes, the car is fun to drive as it has a lot more power than my other cars with 239 and 256 engines.

I just posted some more pics. The interior is the usual Mainline Grey cloth and vinyl. Special 120 MPH police speedometer. The toggle switch panel to the left of the column controls the horn/siren, interior/exterior speakers and the rear flashing package tray lights. The radio is the correct CHP G.E Pre-Progress 6 volt dated 1953. I am still working on a cosmetic restoration of the transmitter/receiver units which mount in the trunk just behind the rear seat. I have not yet detailed under the hood. The block is supposed to be painted off white with red/orange valve covers and air cleaner.

Great car, very nicely done. Now we can see what all your posts were about and I too would like to see some pics of within. I'm old enough to remember the fleet of '54 Ford police cars in the city I was raised in. I remember the odd "whine" from many of the scout cars later learning it was from a supercharger. Ford used the Dearborn police department as a test bed. Great time and place to grow up in which my wife claims I never accomplished. Great preservation of history and good to see at least one Ford over there. Thanks for sharing....
