1:12 I love that Plymouth Reliant. Note the silver-painted bumpers and black rub strips, all those were normally body-colored on retail K-Cars but this is a special fleet color. The many, many Air Force dark blue and Army pale green ones were the same way. I wonder how the normally-body-color grille bits on a Dodge Aries would've been treated. I think the blue wheels aren't how Ma Mopar delivered it though!
Phenomenal as always excellent outstanding brilliant they deserve alot of credit tons of it let's honor and appreciate the paramedics and firemen and police even by fdny and NYPD responding great job great team work and great and sweet catches as usual still going strong great team efforts are deeply appreciated stay safe and warm out there stay strong and healthy as well much love and respect and appreciation job well done you should be proud really enjoyed and appreciate the vidoes please keep them safe out there and coming appreciate you guys thanks way to go very impressed !!!!

@@patrickschio3913 The Monaco and Fury looked different and were on the C-platform when the Coronet was on the B-platform in '75-'76. When the Fury and Monaco moved to the B-platform in '77-'78 the Coronet was discontinued. The Coronet of '75'-'76 also has round headlights in square housings whereas the B-body Monaco and Fury of '77-'78 have stacked square headlights.
@@FCV0511 wow, it looks like MOPAR turned the Monaco and Fury into something similar to the Crown Vic in the 2000s, a specific car for the police, since this body looks a bit anachronistic for the 80s
I am not American and nor do I know the models of the cars but one thing I do know, the American shows I loved as a kid that were shown in the UK and Even Germany had these, I think all old American cars are so awesome but especially the police ones! I guess though I love all old British cars and German too but nah, nothing beats one of these old American police cars. I would love to own one!
@@TripleJFire Oh i loved that car as well, imagine owning the ghost busters car, ee oohh eee ohhhhh eee oohhhh, kids wont know but we know the sound and can hear it instantly just by thinking of it lol
1:12 I'm sorry, but can't accept THAT car to be a vintage NYPD unit. Looks like it was just dragged out of the scrapyard and painted the colors. Just seems to be out of place.
It's accurate - the NYPD did use Chrysler K-cars in the early eighties. They were shortlived since they didn't hold up well at all, but the city was experimenting with various emissions and cost-cutting approaches at the time. i.redd.it/2xcwz5j67m7b1.jpg i.pinimg.com/originals/72/02/e8/7202e83175e05efebe084ea07f8aed08.jpg
The NYPD did use marked Chrysler K-cars for a short period in the 1980s - the city was trying to save money and use less gasoline. They unsurprisingly didn't hold up well at all and weren't particularly well liked by officers assigned to them.
I mentioned it in its' own comment but it does have the correct silver bumper covers and black rub strips for a car delivered new in a special-order fleet color.
Back in the days when NYPD meant something!😮
I still have the utmost respect for the NYPD! Thank the DA for the fact that criminals aren’t prosecuted here.
Yeah, ok boomer 😂
The old us police cruisers have such a nice vibe and are so beautiful.
Agreed!
0:53 NAH, THE CHRYSLER THO??
1:02 Dodge Monaco and Plymouth Reliant K
Great video! I'm especially fond of the Plymouth Gran Furys followed by the boxy Chevy Caprice starting at 1:33.
Thanks! They are cool-all were a treat to see!
Me too! The backbone of NYPD cruisers in the 80s and early 90s.

Cool, didn’t know that about the bumpers!
A Plymouth Reliant cop car? Of course.
NYPD used those for a while.

Thanks! The real credit goes to the heroes in uniform!
1:03 oh Lord, the 75 Coronet 😍
These were a real treat to see, and not something we realized we’d find that day!
That's a 1977-1978 Plymouth Fury.
@@FCV0511 Monaco, Coronet and Fury aren't the same car? What's the difference between them besides the brand and finishing details?

Super Fantastic!!!
Thanks! We kind of stumbled on them and they were fun to see!
Cant stop smiling :)

They are cool! A couple of them look straight out of Ghostbusters!

That's alotta of unseen police brutally these cars witnessed...
None of the brown TRAFFIC patrol cars?
Not unless we missed something!
@@TripleJFirethat's why they called the traffic agents Brownies back in the day,most of them were brown skinned anyway
They were not part of the Pole Department.
Back in the old good times!
Very nice :)
They were fun to see! Thanks for watching!
Those K-cars were the worst. Gran Fury was the best car imo.

I thought it looked straight outta Ghostbusters, but you’ve got me wondering if they’re all authentic restorations!
