This !!!error: Indecipherable SUB-paragraph formatting!!! might have what you're looking for...

...so long as you're looking for a Crown Victoria, Charger, Tahoe, Impala, Cavalier, 4th gen Camaro, Astro, Contour, or (possibly natural gas powered) Civic.

It's basically a roadside lot crammed with former police and local government cars.

The majority of vehicles appear to be CVPIs and Tahoe, but there's some Camaros, Civics, Impalas, Astros, Contours and Cavaliers mixed in, along with a couple Chargers and maybe some Caprices and some other miscellaneous cars.

I mean, take a look at how many cars are there!

Now, the Street View is dated as 2012, and I haven't been by there myself since before then, so I don't know if things are still the same here or not.

Anyways, here's a few pics of what it looks like if Street View doesn't work for you.

Wouldn't mind heading down to check it out sometime to get some in person pics. Maybe one of these days.

Drove past here a few weeks back and yes there is a metric butt load of potential there. I want a cheap cop Tahoe!

Where is this specifically? Can someone give me the name of the place? I see a Charger in there, and it has the wheels I want. I'd be willing to take a chance and call and see if they're willing to sell those wheels.

Excellent, good to know there's still a bunch of cars there.

I wouldn't mind swapping a 392 HEMI in an old Charger cop car.

I tried finding information on the internet about this place, but there doesn't seem to be a lot out there.

Anyway, it's on NY 32 on the outskirts of Saugerties, NY. Pretty easy to get to, actually.

Exit 20 on the NYS Thruway. Stay on North NY 32 (if you're exiting from Northbound, make a left turn then a right at the Hess station. If exiting from Southbound, just make a right onto 32.

Keep heading north on 32 and look for the lot on the left. Very easy to spot, it's on the left across from the Elks Lodge.

If you pass two pairs of billboards on the left, you've just missed it.

Just found this in a Google search for used police cars in Saugerties, NY. Address matches and the phone number is there.

So, now everyone has the info if anyone wants to check the place out. :)

As soon as the wagon is back on the road and finished, I think I have a road trip to make.

Sounds like a Roadkill episode in the making.

Are my eyes deceiving me, or is this Camaro a retired Florida Highway Patrol car?
