Couple of Yanks

[Notwen]

Joined PH back in 2004 but mostly lurked in the background without posting.
So here's my contribution to the Yank section:

1969 Mercury Cougar XR7 390


1999 NYPD Police Interceptor (coming up for sale in August)


1981 New York Checker Cab "big Yellow Taxi"


1994 Chevy Suburban (tow vehicle)

Nice fleet!

I used to have a 68 Cougar white on black with a black vinyl top, I liked it, it was a Mustang with a difference. If you want to get technical you can call your 1999 Interceptor a "CVPI" which stands for Crown Victoria Police Interceptor, before 1999 they were refered to as Crown Victoria P71's. I'd like to own a retired Ford Mustang (SSP) or Chevy Camaro (BC4) pursuit car some day.

Thanks Derric
I have seen others (US based forums) refering to the Crown Vic's as CVPI's, but I try to keep it simple.
I see your in CO, we are in Denver for the Cougar nationals in July, probably a bit too far north to bump into you though....

Hi Gareth, hows the Sub working out?

[notwen]

Hi Andy
Subs been brilliant.
Fitted some bigger road bias tyres, did a full service & valet.
Did a photo shoot in London for the Daily Mail a couple of weeks ago, towed the taxi on the trailer no problem, so much more stable and I get to overtake things too.....
Cheers mate

Just bought another Sub, 97 6.5 Turbo Diesel, thinking of replacing my faithful Dodge Ram with it

Another Sub running on BFG A/T's you must like the tyre noise Andy....

They dont seem to hum as bad on this one given the aggressive tread pattern
