I have  heard of government FC's but never cars.   Just went to look at a  
61 that until a few weeks ago was sealed behind a welded shut garage door  
since 71.  500 bare bones sedan.   Only options were bumper  guards and 
Windshield washer.  On the doors it said "Atomic Energy  Commision, for 
official use only" 


I remember seeing a late 4-door in Dark Navy Blue in Saigon,  Vietnam, late 
in 1969. It had "Official US Car" markings of some  type on the front doors. 
Probably worked well in that climate. My 65  Corsa was being driven for me by my 
brother at home!  - Seth  Emerson
