maxxmike1234 Posted September 5, 2021 Report Share Posted September 5, 2021 So I noticed earlier that private ambulances were mentioned, especially AMR and McCormick and that they might be made if some reference images could be found. Recently I stumbled upon a Facebook page which disclosed that ambulances in owned by Medtrans (AMR Corporate), weren't using the name AMR across the board until the late 90s, instead just using the original names of the ambulance companies they bought. So I found a prominent one throughout Los Angeles County at the time and that being the Goodhew Ambulance company. I'm not quite sure where the page got this info from but if you're still into the idea of private ambulances, I'll leave the link to it for you; https://www.facebook.com/NationalPrivateEMS/photos/goodhew-ambulanceearly-1900s-1993los-angeles-cafounded-by-j-h-goodhewacquired-by/10150698962387119/ Also another note from the Riverside Fire Department's Facebook page: https://www.facebook.com/CityOfRiversideFire/posts/today-in-rfd-history-december-1-1991goodhew-ambulance-places-into-service-med-83/2014236285382693/ Also some reference images Apologies for the paragraph 1 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Squad 65 Posted September 12, 2021 Report Share Posted September 12, 2021 I really need to update that. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OnFire Posted September 14, 2021 Report Share Posted September 14, 2021 Really hyped for the new update, this mod - true to the name - really brings back nostalgia to classic 80s and 90s action movies! Not only are the vehicles beautiful, but also the lights are really nice to see. 4 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes, Those two vehicles have been in the mod for a while now. I might add civilian versions of these as well but I want something a bit different. 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
itchboy Posted October 13, 2021 Author Report Share Posted October 13, 2021 I've been having computer trouble lately which is why I've been quiet for a bit. Work is continuing now that some problems have been solved. Here's 2 new civilian additions that are separate from all the other scratch made models. 9 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

itchboy Posted October 26, 2021 Author Report Share Posted October 26, 2021 I'd like to welcome this CHP patrol vehicle to the family. I also made a big discovery today. LASD used the Plymouth Volare in or around 1977. I will include this unit into the mod, but only next year. There's still too much work for for a rather nondescript patrol unit. 14 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

11john11x Posted November 6, 2021 Report Share Posted November 6, 2021 Some unusual stuff I found today that might be helpful in some way: LAFD sedan with a special Aerodynic setup Early 70s LAPD AMC Matador wagon that apparently survived until the mid or late 80s, possibly the same one that appears in another pic parking beside a LTD, note the decal additions 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'll make that and the split lightbar variants next year. Thanks as well for the LAPD Matador photo, however I have to correct you. The wagon parked next to the LTD is actually a late 70's Caprice. The tail light and body shape is a giveaway for it being a Caprice. The front left reflector light disqualifies the AMC and the Impala. The reason I estimate 70's is due to the can lights. Have you come across this? 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
