No pictures I know of survived, but it was a 1958 Ford Fairlane, painted metallic green, and looked like a typical car until you looked under the hood, "POLICE INTERCEPTOR SPECIAL". No idea of the top end on this car, it was nothing off the line, but at 80 MPH the engine was barely turning 2000 RPM, no idea what the top end was that was as fast as I was taking the car.
