Are there two variations of the 911 Police car ?
Here's what I have and what's on the Tyco guide part# 3953

Here's what I found on the web that's from a US-1 catalog with the same part#, which is not in Dan's Tyco guide...

It was probably a pre-production pic. Tyco mustve changed their minds before releasing this as the charger instead of the UPC. I seem to remember seeing a pic of some command control cars like this, and one was a porsche 935, which is a short wheelbase car. There were no short wheelbase chassis in the command control lineup. Later the TCR cars were all swb, whether wide or narrow tab.

I asked Dan about that car years ago. He said it was never released. BTW if you have his second edition book the F40 that is pictured as car 15 should have been rated 1 not 3.
