    Interesting bar on the pass. window?


    Just noticed that it is a two door, a very long door to go with the long roof. It puts me in mind of a Ford wagon.

    Good find, Fannie! Didn't know there was a wagon concept done on the SVX.

    As to the bar on the passenger window, that is due to the unique window design on the SVX (it was this way on the production vehicle as well). Only the lower portion below the bar lowered into the door shell. The part above the bar was fixed.

    You know you have screwed up big time when you do drive this in public rather than administrative leave ..............

    "look at me Mom, I told you I'd be a police officer.......just like dad and grandpa, except they had shot guns on the dash..... I have a paint ball gun and a sling shot for a side arm.
    'bad boys, bad boys, watcha gona do........ your gona :rofl2:

    Years ago our local police drove motorcyle Servicars. Three wheeled trikes no bigger than this. Now the local city park back home uses quad cab four wheel drive trucks?????????????? When I was a kid the park had one 80 year old retired guy walking the park.:confused:
