Here are some pics from our last two visits there, some of the pics were taken by Jen

Yes, this is Fordjockey's Monaco


























There are also hundreds of beautiful non-police vehicles there, definitely worth the trip. The police cars are on display until April

- Great display, beautiful cars. That '74 Monaco wound up in good hands when Ford Jockey bought it, it looks fantastic.

That NYC Dippy, did they really have blue wheels like that? Was that something they did just for a year or two? I was looking at some NYC pics of Dippy's and mostly I was seeing the basic black wheels with dog dish hubcaps.

Yeah, his Monaco is really nice. He also has (or at least did when I went to his house) a mint, beyond perfect '75 Road Runner. My answer to the blue wheel question is I can't say. I recall seeing other NYPD cars with blue wheels (in pics, I don't recall what they had when they ran these colors) but on Diplomats I can't say. I'd guess they are correct only because I have seen NYPD blue slotted Mopar police wheels in the past that friends have bought or at swap meets long before these cars were anything besides taxi cabs and $200 beaters outside of police duty.

It's easier to find Plymouths with blue wheels
