`70's Monaco Police Cruiser
 
`70's Dodge Monaco Police Cruiser.  This Highway Patrol casting was disassembled and stripped of its black enamel paint, and the basic wheels were discarded.  The body sides were sprayed with two coats of gloss white enamel followed by Testors Gloss Pearl Clearcoat.  After this dried, the sides were masked off and the remainder of the body was sprayed with three coats of Deep Pearlescent Purple.  Custom decals in metallic gold, black and white were designed and applied to the roof and sides.  White old-style Real Rider hubs with Good Year tires were utilized.  The chassis was buffed with steel wool.  The chassis grill was painted flat black, the headlights painted silver and the turn signals painted Amber Metallic.  The six spotlight faces on the body were painted silver.  The body and chassis were sprayed with two coats of High Gloss Clearcoat to seal the paint and decals.  A piece of aluminum foil was attached under the roof light bar for better light reflection.  Malaysia casting.
