Columbo

[SoCal440GTX]

I've been watching a lot of Columbo lately, just to see the old cars. Saw an awesome Charger yesterday. It's hard to believe 99.9% of the cars I see in the show are probably gone.

Big Columbo fan here. Cool Challenger R/T in one episode. Enjoy the Los Angeles setting and even an episode on the Palm Springs Tram.

Or in the back lots of Hollywood studio lots. Then there's the beauties that FBBO members own.

ADAM-12 is a great car gazing show since so much of it happens out on the streets. One interesting car to watch for is a blue Maverick. I guess it was some set director's car because it shows up in a LOT of scenes.

I was watching Emergency a while back, one of the early episodes, and the squad passes a 69 Charger Daytona parked on the street. Too cool!

In one of the Adam 12 episodes, Reed had an old '50s drag car. The episode focused on street racing. They had it at the drag strip and there were a lot of cool Mopars running. Wells (Gary Crosby) was driving a Camaro.
The '55 Chevy from Two Lane Blacktop and American Graffiti also appeared in the background of an Adam 12 episode. The bad guys had it in an alley for a getaway car. It was in it's Two Lane Blacktop trim - primer and that same hood scoop.

Yes, seems like she was always driving a Coronet convertible - at least one of them was red.

I've seen that a bunch of times, never get sick of it. Lots of famous people on the panel in that one - even a quick shot of Ronald Reagan. Pretty neat.
