A Great Resource!,
By John Bujosa (Spokane, WA United States) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Police Cars: Restoring, Collecting and Showing America's Finest Sedans (Paperback)
Ed Sanow and Jim Post have done an excellent job in collaborating and producing a book that not only addresses the basic questions asked by those just getting into the hobby, but for those of us already in the hobby it helps provide a base from which we can help others. This is definitely a book that I will recommend to new members of our Association, the Emergency Vehicle Owners & Operators Association ... and for those that may need another resource for information.

Another great book from Mr. Sanow!,
By "dc492" (West Olive, MI United States) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Police Cars: Restoring, Collecting and Showing America's Finest Sedans (Paperback)
Mr. Sanow has brought the Police Car collecting community another great resource and mound of information. This book gives great recommendations on what cars are worth restoring and what it will take to make a great show car. It covers topics from body work/painting to preparing your car for show day. There are also several Chapters written by noteable Police Car experts from across the United States. This is is a great book for a beginner in the hobby right on up to a veteran collector!

Police Cars restoring,
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Police Cars: Restoring, Collecting and Showing America's Finest Sedans (Paperback)
I am on my second police car restore, I wish I had had this book with the first one, it would have saved me time and money. Excellent book with lots of tips on restoring a police car. Very down to earth, by two people who have been there done that, and made the mistakes so we don't have too.
