Greetings from East York

An A12 Diplomat?

Put "A-38" on the roof. Mopar folks will get it

A-12, is Adam-12. One of my co-workers is an ex-LA County narc cop that retired out in the '90's. He asked me if I knew what the "A" denoted in LAPD terminology. I had no clue, so he informed me that "A" units had 2 officers back in the day, got all the sh@t calls (like domestic violence calls)

1-Adam-12
1st Division
'A' unit
car 12

I watched Adam 12. Geezz, how many times did they have to draw the gun back then?

One Adam 12-See the man.
Only hope for the 2-11 in progress.

One adam-12 One adam-12...see a Mrs. Sarniki about a cat in a tree.
An A12 is actually a badass Super Bee. (google images).

Yep, that's what I have in the green machine. All 110HP. Bet with the A/C on it's not a 100hp.
Back in 97, I wished it was a V8, but now with the gas prices, the 25mpg helps.

 

[Jack Meoff]

Stay tuned for the nail biting unbelievable dramatic made for tv movie based upon the true story of what I had to go through to finally buy the 79 Diplomat that I just picked up this afternoon.

My little tower of power pumps out the same but I've still smoked pylons with audi's and other assorted rice rockets off the lights. Sometimes it's not what's under the hood it's whether you know what you're doing or not. I love my Super Six.

Correction Captain, it all started in the morning and just dragged out into the afternoon. Don't forget to mention in your story how it wouldn't be home without the pulling power of two GMC's. :icon_biggrin:

Sorry to correct you Frank but this epic started weeks ago but you are right about the GMC's....good to see that GMC's do actually run without having to wrench them first.

Look what I found, cat's out of the bag on Eastyorker and me.

NICE PIC! I like the Plymouth the best but the Pontiac and the Ford are nice too. Y'know...for Pontiac's and Ford's.

 

[Jack Meoff]

Y'know... I kinda remember passing you guys on the highway that day ....with my slant six.:icon_super:

That is true, but we were exiting and you missed the turn off :laughing7:.

Just had a funny thought: Slant six = 225 CID, Half my engine = 227 CID :la:

I smell a rat here, 454 to be exact.

This post is becoming increasingly Ontariocentric...............:3some:

Okay.. Now you're just making stuff up. #1 you guys were in the middle lane, not making an exit..and #2 you didn't have your 454 then. :toothy9:

 

[Jack Meoff]

P.S. half of 350= 125.

A little Ontario-esque yes... But we are East Yorkers.:sign7:

 

[Mopar Envy]

Since it is illegal to speed and were in the middle lane I guess we were doing a brake necking 90 kph (50 MPH) Was your foot on the floor ? :laughing11:

Do the math again Captain. :violent1:
