I can personally vouch for old cop cars as my 1995 LT1 Caprice runs great! It gets over 20 mpg's and does command a lot of respect going down the highway. I have thought about taking off the push bar as it looks a little too hazard county. The spot light is neat though. Be prepared for a front end rebuild. A 100,000 miles in town is pretty rough on the brakes and suspension. In all fairness, mine was the fire chief's car and probably didn't get in too many hot pursuits.
