Re: Beverly Hillbillies drive chryslers

Chrysler provided a lot of the vehicles for TV and movies back in the 60's 
and 70's. After the Mod Squad's Mercury Woody went over a cliff they drove a 
71 Challenger convertible. Then the next year they had a 72 Challenger 
convertible, I know there's no such thing as a 72 Challenger 'vert but 
Chrysler updated their 71 into a '72 so they would have the current model 
Challenger.

According to Allpar http://www.allpar.com/history/tv.html  Miss Jane had a 
Challenger 'vert in '70.

Mannix always drove Mopars - many performance convertables.  Once on the Mod 
Squad, Peggy Lipton was driving a '70 GTX (I remember because I had one at 
the time when I saw that re-run).  Adam 12 is another great one if you like 
B body cop cars.  One of the reasons I like watching old rerun shows is to 
see the cars - even in the background.  Ironside will throw you a Mopar bone 
once in a while.  They had a '69 Super Bee show up in the background on that 
show in several episodes one year.  It was B-5 blue with a white Bee stripe.
