Does anyone know the make, model, or year of Cabbie's cab in Escape from New York, or have a clear picture of it?

There used to be a Checker Cab collector group. I don't know if they are still active though. I did find a listing for a 1973 GMC Checker Cab For Sale: Classic Checker Cabs | Collector Car Ads

I also found a few other things...
