I was waiting for start time for a job and breakfasting at a roadhouse the other week, the television was on and an old episode of Skippy was on.

Well, all episodes of Skippy are old (and corny) and in this one from 1968 a pair of baddies were trying to dupe an elderly couple of their life's savings. They arrived in a Plymouth convertible (1959?) which was a model never sold here, and with the little kangaroo's intervention in their game they had to try and outrun a helicopter at one stage...

Classy Taxi.
Is that Dodge emblem usually located there? I thought it would say Coronet or Royal etc. instead. but then I see police ads with Dodge in that location, so I don't know what to think.

I think a lot of 56 Dodge taxis just had "Dodge" badging on the side. Not sure if they were all low trim level Coronets like this one in the 56 Dodge taxi brochure or not.

Another Lawrence Welk sighting. This time at the Claude Short dealership in Santa Monica.

This must be the 1955 version of the dealership:

This pic may have already been posted but I don't know because I'm way too lazy to look through the thousands of pics already posted here. The show "Highway Patrol" used a lot of Buicks but also used a few Dodges occasionally like this one....

I still watch it on a regular basis. There are dozens of episodes on YouTube that you can watch for free. I have watched quite a few of them and they used mostly Buicks. Check them out....

It looks like '57 DeSoto.
Look at the ornament on th C-Pillar on this yellow car...
The side mouldings are placed lower behind than '58 and '59 models as well...

Great 56 Fury photos. Too bad they are only black and white.

Manual windows. You can see the stub for the crank in this picture, and there isn't a cutout for a power window switch. Also, I don't think the window crank is broken. It's probably just the crap pixelation of the picture that you are looking at, combined with a dark reflection off the chrome that makes the handle disappear. You can also see the shadow of the handle knob on the door panel.
