Hey everyone... i don't live near the LSRC or SBS and haven't been able to find any good overhead pictures of the GP/SD units. Do these units have black anti-glare paint on the tops of the short noses? Also, does anyone have a list or know the "city of's" on each unit? thanks everybody.

Re: LSRC short nose
Hi, I shot a video from a walkway over 5921 a while ago and posted it on youtube. It looks like this unit does not have black anti-glare paint on the short hood in the video but the video was shot with the sun in about the 10 o-clock position to the camera so it's not the greatest.

Re: LSRC short nose
Excellent pictures, GTW6401. If they use antiglare on the nose I can't pick it up. It all looks shiny dark blue to me 
PatC created a monster, 'cause nobody wants to see Don Simon no more they want AARR I'm chopped liver, well if you want AARR this is what I'll give ya, bad humor mixed with irrelevant info that'll make you roll your eyes quicker than a ~Z~ banhammer...

Re: LSRC short nose
The tops of the LSRC painted C425's noses appear to be antiskid/antiglare black.

Re: LSRC short nose
Do they still have the fleet of GP40's and GP38M's or are those gone too?

Re: LSRC short nose
Yes they do, plus an ex GTW SD40. Not sure why Steve didn't list those.OaklandCountyCustoms wrote:Do they still have the fleet of GP40's and GP38M's or are those gone too?
