I know it isn't NYPD but a NY City Transit armoured truck, saw a very similar NYPD one last night but no photos.

Surprised this thing still exists but there was some similar in a yard on 11th Ave around the 40s on July 4th. Where would it be based?
Cool shot of MALT 4! BTW its a 2002 International with a Saulsbury body.
MALT 7 is 1993 Freightliner with a Saulsbury body. This rig was delivered in the 1990's era paint scheme of a white cab roof, blue body with dual white stripes down the side. MALT is an acronym for MOBILE AUXILIARY LIGHT TRUCK Regards

Didn't know there was such a thing as NYC Sheriff... [/quote] The NYC Sheriff handles civil enforcement such as repossessions and evictions. [url="http://www.nyc.gov/html/dof/html/services/services_enforcement.shtmlhttp://"]NYC Sheriff[/url]
Anyone have a clue who made the body for the Scuba unit?
Thanks

Special Operations Division - SCUBA Unit [/quote] Great shot. Probably my favorite NYPD truck.
There was actually 2 NYPD vans on this block hooked up. I know theres more to this pic then meets the eye, But a picture is worth a 1000 words.
I can say that is definetely NOT an OSHA-approved way to secure the van!!! <img src='http://www.firepics.net/groupboards/public/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/tisktisk.gif' class='bbc_emoticon' alt='' />

Special Operations Division - SCUBA Unit [/quote] Very neat! Where did you take the photo at and/or where is this unit kept at?
Although I don't know who built it, I did find an awesome replica of it! :

[/quote] Neat models! I wonder why the scuba team lettering was taken off the real vehicle, unless the model is inaccurate, which I find hard to believe with all the detail work that was done to it.
