66? Cops and cabs used Furys mostly.
I'm going with municipal fleet cuz of the HD seat covers in beige.
 
FBI Hemi...sure, right...!

Obviously referring to the '66 Hemi Coronet Deluxe 4-door in the Garlits collection. He has a sign that says "FBI ordered", which is complete bullshit. That car came from Wichita, Kansas as a special ordered car that a guy wanted to pull a fairly large boat with. I've got pics of that car and the white Hemi Coronet 4-door (also sold new in Wichita - what are those odds?) at the Wichita Area Mopars show in the late '80s. Both were special-ordered cars and NOT cop cars by any stretch!

PS - There was never a Hemi cop car built by Chrysler. Might've been a couple of conversions a cop garage may have done, but NO factory Hemi cops. Bank on that!

I recall a story in an old copy of Mopar Action about one of those four door hemi Coronets with pics of the BOS so the FBI story is an urban myth.I think that article might have mentioned the other car as well or maybe it was featured in another issue,I've seen both cars in print with complete histories and no FBI connection whatsoever.
