My ex-Cop Car, for You F-M-J Guys & Gals!

i worked at a dodge dealer that had the maint/repair contract with state of illinois. we had plenty of those diplomats to work on. they had a transmission lock out on the gearshift linkage that was supposed to not let them shift into 1st or 2nd gear manually. i replaced more than a dozen linkages that they bent, pulling it hard down in low. i even removed the carb and tweeked them to where they would run between 125-130 without leaning out too bad. neat cars for sure.
