Yep, Tex; it's a real one. Quite a find.
Can you determine if it was ever put in service as a police car? 'Looks like a little disturbance in the middle of the door where a graphic might have been placed at one time.
Keep us posted; this is exciting stuff as those were well-equipped sedans for good handling and such.
Congratulations on the find. BPWe've got to quit saying, "How stupid can you be?" Too many people are taking it as a challenge.

Tex, As others have said, that's a keeper, is absolutely right on the money. Alabama has been noted in the past for "taking the lead" as far as police pursuit vehicles go. IIRC back in the early 70's, the State Patrol had a handful of American Motors AMX's set up and equiped for high speed duty, including a roll bar. Looks to me they may have used some Studes even early on. The production order will certainly varify that fact. Good luck on the "acquisition".

Any updates on those Marshalls?--------------------------------------
Sold my 1962; Studeless at the moment
Borrowed Bams50's sigline here:
"Do they all not, by mere virtue of having survived as relics of a bygone era, amass a level of respect perhaps not accorded to them when they were new?"
