Times are a-changin’, and not always for the better. This is especially true on the law enforcement front, where criminals are smarter, better equipped, and more brutal than ever. Police departments nationwide regularly find themselves outmanned and outgunned, especially if they’re still using the old-and-slow Crown Victoria patrol car.

Thankfully, many departments are upgrading to more potent options, like the Taurus-based Police Interceptor. Some departments have even enlisted Mustang GT’s to help patrol the streets. But can you imagine the fear a Shelby police patrol car would strike into the hearts of criminals everywhere?

Mustangs Daily stumbled upon this concept drawing for a Shelby GTS-based Police Interceptor, which begs the question…might police departments start driving Shelbys in the pursuit of justice?

One thing is for sure; justice will be meted out in record time if Shelby does indeed start producing police patrol cars. Assuming Shelby would use their GTS Mustang as a base, such a vehicle would pack either a performance-enhanced V6 or V8 engine..and perhaps even a supercharger. Shelby also declared that police departments have reached out in the past about patrol packages, which begs the question…might Shelby police cars actually hit the streets?
