   An Alfa-Romeo, if I recall correctly, not a common brand of car that could   
   you find easily with Mexican dealers at the time.   
      
   The relationship with police was not very common outside of Mafia or gangs   
   fighting andhe usually got involved in strange situations like fighting   
   against vampires, zombies and most memorable the fights against the   
   Mummies of Guanajuato.  http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mummies_of_Guanajuato
