Retro BRPD units?

[oleheat]

This morning on the way in, I caught a glipse of what looked like 6-8 marked BRPD units from circa 1985 (the old "blue stripes") parked behind the old Bellemont on Airline @ Greenwell Springs Rd....Pretty sure that's what they were, anyway. They still had the lights and all the proper markings, from what I could tell....

I would've thought those would have all been sold off/gone the way of the Dodo by now....But what do I know?


Anyway, that was definitely a sight I hadn't seen in a few years....


Auction, maybe?

Movie props?

Are they using the old Bellemont in that film production? I dunno....

they are shooting a movie there. those are for a scene. and yes all old vehicles are stripped and sold... so they are just a look a like

If it was EBRSO units I would say they were left over from when Al Amiss had his room at the Bellemont for his drunken afternoons.

You mean he was a good friend of old A.C. himself?
