Amazons as police cars 120-130

Hi. A article (writed by Mr. Unger, our local car guru) about the amazon as a police car in my country (Peru) is available on http://www.automas.com.pe/tomas/autobio_129.php, in spanish (google language tools could be translate it to english).

Babble fish also worked fine for translating that page. Cool stuff. Does he still have the car or are it's where abouts known? A few years ago there was a former Ghanian Air Force 122 that was for sale in New Zealand. It was pretty rusty and it may have gotten scrapped but I don't know...

There was also a good article in the Volvo Club Of America this fall. It was about police 122's in sweden and a guy that had several of them...

Mr. Unger return the patrol car to Graf when the government agree to buy the fleet of amazons (1960-1961 I believe). On 1971 that fleet was decimated and changed for other vehicles. Some remaining amazons was sell to policemans (just I buy mine from the son of a late police colonel).
