The Sheriff

HI everyone! Well me and Melissa finaly got our new ride today! We love this car so much and the condition that it is in is amazing! We are the second owners and the car was bought up the road in Maryborough QLD in 1982. It spent its first 3 months run in as a taxi then the fella who owned it hurt himself bad and could not continue the taxi busniess so he made his last xe falcon taxi into his pride and joy. Its a JG24 au so that means it is a Falcon 500 Taxi GL. this was a special taxi fleat and i have made a web site going into more details with it. But here are some pics and vids of us pickin it up today.

Enjoy







And now The Sheriff is in the shed with Marduk!

Some more pics from todays cruise!

We decided to get some Sheriff badges air brushed onto the spotlight covers.

So this is how we done it!
First we made some stencils on the computer and the cut them out on the sticker machine. then we made the words with the same software and machine. We stuck the badges to the spotlight covers and air brushed the gold.



Then put in the words!







Now we started spraying black for the words!





And now air brush in the detailed parts that give it the badge look and also the shines!







and now there done!








On the car!

I thought I would post up some pics of the special things about the The Sheriff x-taxi.
