New Brunswick RCMP Retro Police Car

RCMP in NB acquired this Retro looking police car over the summer I believe. It is a fully functional patrol car with lights, sirens, EyeWitness dash cam, Prisoner cage ect. I believe its primarily used for parades and special events, however, it has been used for duty work.

@flamezilla484 This was at the Dieppe Fire Station. I do not know why it was there.

I think if you look back at the media reports, its not a codiac car. This car has been used all over the province. I think they have to book it. I know it was in District 11 for about a week this past summer. Then after that it was on the Acadian peninsula.

Thanks for the info. It would explain why I haven't seen it for a little while.

i wish there would be some of these retro crown vics here but we do have an unmarked charger

@LeighRay I think if a car has a livery that was replaced in 1973 with blue & white, and again in 1993 with white & stripes, I'd call that retro.

There's nothing old-school at all about this cruiser. As for the single beacon on the roof, it's a Unity RV-45. The Michigan State Police have used this exact beacon since 1979, only theirs have larger sealed-beams. MSP is just now upgrading to LEDs. HOWEVER, they are using this exact beacon body and dome with a huge four-sided LED module instead of the rotating halogens.

I'm pretty sure that Codiac Dispatch is upstairs at the Fire Station.
