Great find :king:

Though, this example in the main picture was probably resprayed later in a typical police livery (black & white), since early (1950) Type 180 police cars were usually in pale green or pale blue color :

Thank you s13a!!
Curious the story that they painted them blue or green so that the mud was not noticeable in the white color ... :lol: It seems to me the rarest police car that has ever been made, it is a hulk and it seems that it did not reach much maximum speed...
