    Using a crown vic in the first place is pretty suspicious already. Why not use an upgraded town car or something?

    This is just screaming for a sp00py scary skellington skin. And maybe a rear-engined Communist ripoff.

    Looking at the proportions, this car does seem to have the right ammount of junk in the trunk to make room for an engine. Maybe a small V8, like the Tatra T603.

    I really hope this gets a Coupe, and hot rod with chop top. That would be awesome. #Hotrod #Ratrod

    The wheels on that crown vic aren't factory. They almost look like alloys from a Town Car or Grand Marquis but I can't tell exactly. That's weird, departments rarely take that sort of time and money to make a car look less cop-ish. That's the same reason they don't use Town Cars or Grand Marqs.
    Cops don't use Crown vics if they truly want to be undercover. If they want something a little more inconspicuous than your run-of-the mill police interceptor they'll get a P71 with the street appearance package, commonly shortened to SAP. It's got all of the P71 underpinnings, but with the chrome exterior trim and wheel covers of a civilian vic. You can also order them with the split bench seat instead of the separate captains chairs standard to the P71. That's usually reserved for someone who is doing no sort of rushing around anywhere, because you don't have room for all the radio and siren equipment found in a typical patrol car.

    To be on topic, the chopped burnside definitely isn't a moonshine runner. Moonshiners didn't waste their time on that stupid shit.

    because they want to focus on making the car fast not stylish.

    Because it's blatant and irreversible desecration of a rare and valuable object that many classic car enthusiasts (such as myself) would almost kill to own.

    It's a car modification. Some like it because it looks cool as all fuck, and some dislike it because it's a permanent modification which changes the car's original nature.

    Honestly, I think it's fine. I don't see anyone complaining about modding a 90s civic because "it's irreversible", but people will probably complain about it in another 50 years anyway. We're all the same, really, no matter what our generation is.

    As much as I love chopped cars, I respect your opinion about them.

    This car is pretty much the most beautiful car ever made in BeamNG.drive.

    Too sad I can't use it because I bluescreen every 5 minutes with BeamNG installed
    -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
    It happened because in Grand theft Auto Five, a hacker spawned twenty cargo planes, and I bluescreened. From then on. Grand Theft Auto Five broke, so I uninstalled it, and BeamNG broke, so I uninstalled it. I re-installed it, and then every 5 minutes playing Beam, I would bluescreen with MEMORY_MANAGEMENT. So I uninstalled it, and I now play RoR
