    The Burnside might as well be the oldest vehicle in BeamNG to have been created by the developers. While it has a lot of 1950s aspects, it has very little additional period-correct equipment that makes it stand out otherwise.

    Here's a list of suggestions:

    1. Roof-Mounted Antenna

    A critical feature on patrol cars for accurate reception when listening to KMA367 dispatch calls. For extra realism, must be entirely chrome.

    The antenna must be mounted in the middle of the car, directly above the windshield, at a 45 degree angle towards the back of the car.

    2. Spotlights

    A very crucial component for police cars, when identifying a dark landmark or suspicious vehicle. Usually found between the frame of the front doors and windshield. For maximum realism, spotlights must be entirely chrome.

    Alternatively, the spotlights can either have red and blue lenses, for slicktop police cars.

    3. Fender-mounted siren

    (Yes, the photo above is a Nash police car from 1954.)
    Fender mounted sirens are a absolute necessity when replicating 1950s police cars. Usually mounted on the driver's side or passenger side front fenders. Obviously gotta be chrome.

    NOTE:
    I was going to include curb feelers in this list, but because it was requested so many times, I felt the need to obmit curb feelers.

    Gabester or Jalkku, hear us out.

    UPDATE: I have PMed @B25Mitch about this 9 days ago, but I haven't heard back from him.
