This is my new ride, it was a gift from my big brother :cool:


It's a 2007 Dodge Charger Police package that was in a minor accdent and needed a hood, drivers side fender, header panal and 1 tired with rim. It has only 6,975 miles :cool:


These are pictures of it before it was painted, It is all black now.

Chrysler Corporation hit a home run in the styling department with the Challenger and the Charger. Too bad Chrysler was sold to Fiat, I hope Fiat continues the Chrysler line and keeps the quality at a high level. Fiat is best known as the "Fix It Again, Tony" car. :shock: Anyway, that's a sweet car you have!
 
nice ride ,good luck with it.your brother looking to adopt i could use another car
 
Thanks Everyone :cool:


My brother has always been the greatest.


The car is painted all black now, I will post pictures soon, still waiting on the rest of the equipment to arrive so it can be installed.

Nice! I have never seen that hood on a police charger? Is it optional or is it from another trim?

Probably just a hood from an SRT8 or something.
 
Thanks guy's.


Its getting a Havis Shield console with 1 Bearcat scanner, 1 VHF Motorola MaxTrac and 1 Kenwood UHF radio and SS2000 Smart Siren.


Headlight flasher & Tail light flasher, Whelen 400 series LED's on the pushbumper, Whelen PAR-36 TIR-6 Super LED'S in the fog light area, Whelen dual LED in front of the rear view mirror and im not sure yet on what I am going to use in the rear deck.

put a rear deck sound off pinnacle! :twisted: I can shoot you a video of what one looks like and take some pics of one if ya want, its not installed or anything, just if you want the idea of one.
 
Cool ride. I like the air intake on the hood, mean looking... :twisted:
 
Is that an AHB package car? I ask because of the unique dual exhaust, engine intake cover, and the hood make it appear that it's a retail SRT-8. Of course that could have been added I suppose, but don't know why a department would.
 
Yes, it was a police package vehicle, the hood, header panel, bumper & fender were all replaced and a custom dual exhaust with thrush mufflers were added when the body work was done.


Here is a before the accident picture, it was all body part damage, no frame damage at all.

It boggles my mind to think a department would scrap a vehicle for this amount of damage.
 
Must have deep pockets or to many vehicles.
 
Some department's have policy's that if the vehicle cost so much to fix, it can never hit the street again as a patrol car.

Though rare, I have heard of insurance companies putting a cap on how much damage a car is allowed, citing "driver safety" In other words a certain amount of repairs needed and the car might not be safe.

A several Department in my area, the cop's have it in there contract for the future of the "Driver Safety" the car is not to be used if over a certain amount of damage the car is to be either de-commishined or reassigned. I don't like the idea because I believe it is a waste of money.
