IML: Vintage TV siting

["Donn Reese" <DReese@xxxxxxxx>]

Parts of an Imperial convertible were visible in a Hawaii 5-0 episode I was watching last night.  In "No Blue Skies" from the first season there was a shot of the decklid and trunk interior (the bad guy stashing jewels), then later various brief shots of the dash and front seat/doors during some action.  There were no full body shots of the car but I imagine it was a 1968 since the episode originally aired on December 5, 1968.

It's somewhat unusual to see Mopars at all on a show normally only using Ford products, but there was also a 1960-61 Dodge Dart or Phoenix seen dashing by in the background of another scene.

As near as I could tell, no Imperials were damaged nor otherwise abused during the making of the episode.

On a side note I met someone in the local vintage car club that has two Imperials, a 1955 and a 1936 C10.  They are both garaged and he's working towards restoration.
