For Sale: Model of ACPD Car-Cab

Arlington’s half police car-half taxi cab has been made into a scale model.

The vehicle, which is used to help discourage drunk driving, is a Ford Crown Victoria painted as both a police cruiser and a taxi, with the slogan “Choose Your Ride.” A company called Ixo Models is now manufacturing a 1/43 scale model version.

The model is available for sale for $37.95.
