Description As apart of High Point Police Week, this is the 2nd drawing of the High Point Police in their vintage cars. The Chevrolet Bel Air was not used by the Department officially (it was used by detectives in a unmarked configuration) and the correct vehicle they used was a four door sedan that I could not find a base of so I went with this one. The drawing depicts accurate lights that would be on the vehicle at the that era. 

The blue beacon was a rotating beacon which obviously was the main light. 
The red light mounted on the siren box which housed the siren was a steady burn red which did not flash and was only there for increased warning power. 
The Department also mounted two additional blue lights. One in the form of a light mounted in front of the grille which was a flashing halogen blue. In addition to this, a blue halogen light of a unknown model was mounted in front of the beacon which flashed also as a halogen light that was blue. 
The Department finally added a rear light of a unknown model that was a flashing amber halogen light and was featured on the rear usually behind the beacon. This practice was continued until the 1970s/1980s when lightbars finally came out that had amber lights in the rear already onboard. 

Credits to MEDIC1543 for the carbase which I've modified to be this creation.
