 JTB 576K was Nov 71. Main is GT for grille - thumb is plain with poverty wheels and no coachline. But as police-spec fleet cars were often downgraded poverty format, it might be the same GT without usual details.

 ** memo to self - I'll come back to this for the bonnet vent - might be a 3L V6 conversion by someone like Willment or Superspeed ... will need to dig out some books ....

 Jeff Uren?

 Not the usual Savage/Uren V6 bonnet, which was more macho

(option at £47, made by Specialised Mouldings, but apparently had a tendency to fly off at speed) but they could vary - some Savages had no bulge/vent. Pics I can find of Willment, Super Speed or Broadspeed so far show normal bonnet, but I still think this might be Superspeed.

Whichever, it's an interesting choice for a police car to use a conversion - maybe an evaluation model?? It's a Lancashire plate, so not a Ford factory demonstrator.

 1st new thumb shows the bonnet with standard poverty wheels rather than the usual GT Rostyles, but it's a GT 4-light grille so an interesting police-spec blend of elements from across the Cortina shelves.

 Are we sure the series used genuine police vehicles?

 This was seen so briefly that I doubt they would've went through the trouble of faking a police car for this one scene.

But then, they erased something like 60 episodes that may or may not have featured it, we may never know.
