1. The word "Vascaína" has not an accurate translation into English, but it can be roughly interpreted as being something related to the Club de Regatas Vasco da Gama. The actual meaning of the title is a twist on words to make up "Police Van". Both Vasco da Gama soccer team t-shirts and the police cars of the seventies and eighties shared the same basic colors: black and white. Also, Veraneio (Chevrolet Suburban seventh generation) was a popular police car during this era.
