Raymond Murch, a former Placerville, CA deputy with his patrol Wagoneer circa 1964.

Interesting. No outside rear view mirrors.
Wonder if it's 2wd, IFS, and he's calling someone to pull him out?

[Tatsadasayago]

Yeah, they put the spotlight through the mirror hole and the siren on the other side.
I'd never seen a cop FSJ before so this was a treat to see.

Of course I had to search.

Speaking of CopJeeps®
When I was with Reno Jeep Eagle I was the 'Chosen One' to work on all the Plumas County (Portola) California XJ Cherokees.
I would take them on extended test drives around Reno/Sparks with the radar ON and laugh myself silly watching the traffic suddenly get all normal.
Their radar guns had a digital readout plus an audio that broadcast a doppler sound to tell if they were accellerating or decellerating. So much fun!

Who's the ghost on the passenger side?

This was one of my favorite police jeep builds. It was featured in I believe 4wheel drive and sport utility magazine many moons ago.

This XJ still sports the adhesive backing of a former sheriff vehicle- I has popped up the local CL for sale with police package, but I saw it at the local high school craft fair:

Ha! Good eye! That's awesome.

I'm glad you see it too. I'd be pretty weirded out if it was just me.

I wonder if some computer skilled person could make it more visable? Maybe a negative of the pic or something..

Sure looks like a person on the left...

Red hat and a blue shirt, what is this a badly photo shopped Michael Cera?

Sure looks to me like whomever it was has there elbows on the hood, and hands under there chin.

I added a hue and saturation adjustment layer to bring out the colors then added a levels adjustment layer for contrast.
I suspect someone took this photo of a photo on a wall and the reflections are coming from behind the photographer.

Cool, so that means my hometown had at least one Police and one Fire Wagoneer.
Wonder if I could find out what ever became of them.

Finally scored these babys off of fleabay. NOS! Schwing!

[Tatsadasayago]

Where's the blue AMC/Jeep part number and info on the bags?

[Nikkormat]

This is all I've got.

[Tatsadasayago]

Could very well be OEM NOS from the looks of that stamp. Good score!
