Had to stop and take a picture!

Definitely worthy of a stop for a photo. I have a photo of my 70 Monte odometer with all 7s. That car crossed all 9s during a road trip home from the 2012 Western Meet but missed getting the photo.

I see I’m not alone with odometer (and related) pix. Here’s my Monte last fall before I put her in the bubble for the winter and my daily driver Crown Vic from a couple years ago when I bought her. Nothing beats a “used” federal LE car driven by a supervisor, ha!!!  Mine was department of homeland security supervisor car out of Oregon.
 

 Pro Tip:  most federal agencies dump their vehicles at 10 years old regardless of mileage and condition. Anybody looking for a Crown Vic P-71 should get one now as 2011 was the last year for those workhorses. Try to find federal examples as they generally don’t abuse their cars like the city boys do. Stay away from K9 vehicles as they run constantly and idle hours are through the roof.
