Yeah growing up in California I remember seeing all the private ambulance services. Many of them had Suburbans as ambulances. The services that worked in the hills were primarily suburbans. I saw a couple photos of the LA County Coroners office with a mid fifties Panel van as their transport wagon.

Progress report on the Suburbans


I painted this one up and ran across some Fifties vintage Chicago Police Decals from Fred Cady. This will be a CPD Paddy Wagon.



Here is the engine in progress.

Nice Zebra.


 I don't know if you saw the Police Squad series, but they said the Black & White was here. It was a Zebra with a flashing lite on it's head.
