These were the cruisers I remember growing up...Peel regional Fury Pursuit.
This one is a restoration and they got some things wrong, sadly (Mirrors are terrible).

Hopefully they didn't have any other mirrors and they're still looking for the correct ones.
 
Police package cars with 440 engine got pursuit rated tires that were wider.

I have nearly all the police brochures from 1966-1982. I will post some.

In 1969 the CHP used a Goodyear Bluestreak Police Special Polyglas 8.55x15, (same tire in 1970 became H-78)
It was 28.2" dia with a contact patch of 6.2" on a 6" wheel.
