2010 Camaro SS Police Car in Texas - Camaro5 Chevy Camaro Forum / Camaro ZL1, SS and V6 Forums

Here are the first pics of what we think is the first real fully marked-up new Camaro SS police car from the crew who put it together. Had to share with Camaro5.

The Haltom City, Texas police department's built the first patrol car out of a new Camaro SS. They could've just added a light bar. Instead, they worked with a local Texas custom shop to build one epically cool patrol car.

I remember when the Challenger showed up in Montana as a police car. I thought that was pretty cool. I like the Camaro even better!

Haven't been driving the car for more than a month and on my way home, a Minnesota State Patrol watched my car as I drive by him on the highway (I was only driving 59 in a 55). Pulled me over and asked for my license, which I produced, and wanted to see insurance. Couldn't find insurance right away so he went back to his car to pull up my driving record. Since it was clean, he came back quick and asked me where my front plate was. I told him I had it but didn't know if my dealer had given me my front license plate bracket (I know CamaroScotty did, I just lied). He told me it was the law to have the front plate on and that I was in violation of the vehicle registration law. Then he let me go with a warning... I think personally he just wanted a look inside the car, and needed a reason to stop me.

Probably wishes he had a cop car that was a Camaro...

Sorry for the thread jacking

If you are not going to put the front plate on; at a minimum put it in your trunk. So when he asks you where it is you can show it to him and he knows it's not on another car somewhere.
