Even if this 73 Fury were painted in the green and black just before that year they changed to blue and white; the light beacon they've used is wrong. The NYPD used it from 1964-1971. Then in 71 they changed to the Signal Stat light: http://www.policeny.com/lightssirens1.html Also, the siren should be infront of the beacon light, and not to the left hand side. So it is a quickly produced mock NYPD car. The better exmaple of all I've said is with the 69 Custom infront of the Plymouth. Which appears to an actual NYPD car. -- Last edit: 2010-02-01 09:37:01
