August 2002


The heat is on for August.  The Committee is out at the beach and copcar dot com was forced to pull a rabbit out of the hat for August.  Besides that, all anybody ever talks about any more is Monaco, Monaco, Monaco.  Well, copcar dot com knows a popular feature when they see one so we bring you, what else?   

 copcar dot com presents:    Monaco

 


Okay, so it's a 1975 Monaco.  But these Monacos belong to Sonoma County, California, Sheriff.  These are actually crime scene photographs after a minor collision. 

Interestingly enough, Sonoma county painted their A-pillar spot lights the same as the vehicle's body color but then put a chrome spot light through the roof.  Note what looks like a CHP unit in the background, left.

Another minor collision.  We'd have to say that the VW driver was probably a little nervous when he/she got stopped.  Forgetting to set the brake on the hill, it probably rolled back into the Monaco.  A Santa Rosa PD unit is sitting behind. 

Another angle of the scene shows the crumpled bumper of the VW after tangling with the push bumpers on the Monaco.

Must be the investigator's unit, complete with a fresh cup of coffee delicately balanced on the roof.

Our thanks to Trevor McGinnis for digging through the crime lab archives...  a source many people overlook in seeking old copcar pictures.
