Don't know many cops where I live and don't see many either. Ones I do see are State Troopers or Townies. The Townies are mostly a PITA , but the Troopers all seem to have a fondness for old cars and rods. Two years ago I was in two accidents, one in the streetrod and the other in the 57 Olds. Both times the other guy hit me, and in both cases the Troopers who handled the accident came into the situation assuming the fault was not mine even before he had asked what happened. Not always the right answer, but they do tend to give the benefit of doubt to rodders, especially those who don't dress or act the part of a hellraiser.

Most of the cops that I know from Tampa Florida are all gearheads and owners of rods.
