Tony and co's collection, which they call NSW Historic Patrol Vehicles, stretches beyond the already crammed space where we stand today, where cars are double stacked against the walls.
That can mean old police station signage, now hanging lit from a nearby support, or the original heavy wood front counter that would be anchored inside the station, complete with charge book and bail stamp.The collection embraces the golden era of Australian muscle cars.Not so much the Mini Cooper General Duties car.
"If you were a smart crim, and you saw the antenna in the centre, and the registration sticker had a 3, you'd back off; the centre antenna is a cop radio, and all police vehicles at that time, were registered in March," reveals Tony. "When you got something coming over the radio, you'd have to turn off the sirens off to listen to what they were saying," says Tony.
