NICE!

Probably a Service Car in its past.

Nice sedan. Service car that probably has a lot of miles on it. It looks like it was well maintained. Let's see...Washington DC? If that car could talk...LOL!
 
It may have been a secret service car they used these...they were Cop cars in NY livery...call him and ask the VIN. It may be a U code with all of the police goodies in NY skin.
 
You're making this sound too tasty to pass up...

I just wrote him.

That 75 is a dead ringer for what the secret service used right down to the black on blue colour scheme.
Here's pics of a documented 74 motorcade car to compare with...this is the only other secret service formal that I know of. I know the secret service used T&C's too, but I don't know if they had anything special about them. These motorcade cars were the ultimate pursuit formals in my opinion...speed and luxury (the cars were ordered with vent windows tilt/tele columns etc).

STOP IT Mr. C! You're working me up into a lather.......

BTW, special insignia on the mirrors?

My 74 Imperial 4 dr was an embassy car from 74-80 and it has the same bracketry for the Lecce Neville alternator, but it has a 100 Amp Mopar unit, common in Formal C bodies from 75 on, mounted there instead of the Lecce Neville.

Of note the different Chrysler speedo cluster didn't get a 140 mph version...I guess the production was so low as not to justify it.

I don't think that's an insignia on the mirror, looks like a reflection, perhaps.
 
all this is intriguing ........... Nice car too. Always liked cornering lights, I think they dress up a car
