Not sure if a Saint Regis (M Body) counts. But the police had them here and had a 360 so guessed it was E58.
My buddy at the time did work on the cop cars. Needed a trans and other things so the depth let it go instead. He pulled the trans and was a great car. Fast for what it was. I was offered it, and I should have got it to keep miles off my E Body.
Be a fun car today and drove great on the interstate. My memory was had a mid 200 gear as was a state car ment for hwy use.
Had extra cooling and coolers. No lights. The ones you saw blacked out at night waiting for speeders on the I-10
Certified Speedo, light on A Pillar.
I am sure it could reel in a speeder with a E58 motor and 8 1/4 with 245 gears?

Like @slantsixdan said.... they were plagued by 2.45 gears, a real tight stall, heavy cars with impact bumpers, and smog junk with odd spark control. Results were gutless cars but actually rode nice! But, again, in todays world all that fixes pretty easy. B-body 8.75 rear end and pick your gears, better converter, and dive under the hood and clean up the 17 miles of vacuum hose, normal ignition, and your off to the races! Especially if a guy puts it on a diet. You know, go to the gym and have 4 muscle men hold the front bumper while you unbolt it so you can cut a toyota corrolla worth of steel from behind it?? These cars can become fun!
