Your top 3 TV cars?

& DMCL Green (they claim its curious Yellow) R/T Chargers too

The Dirty Mary Charger was green in real life, it was yellow on the theater screens (and early video tape versions) when it first came out.

Whoever did the color corrections on the final print though that the green was a film or lighting error and 'corrected' it. The recent DVD releases have the original green back on the car.

I tell ya....I'd build a hotrod A-team van if I could find a good starter, complete with the under-seat gun cabinet they had!

Remember the episode when his 71 cuda' (Hemi Clone actually) was stolen
he claimed it was real & the car he got, he said; it was a bad clone of the "real car"

they were all clones

Don Johnson 'allegedly' claimed that he did own a real 71 Hemi cuda' vert.
at one time
it was even yellow & white, like the car on the show

Mike Brady drove a pretty cool Cuda 'vert too if I remember...probably dang near new at the time.

By these photos above, I disagree. The lower photo looks to be darker overall as if a filter were used. The top photo has a more realistic yellow glow like you'd see in the California sun. Note the identical image except for the lack of glare on the bumper in the bottom photo, along with a bit less clarity. Look at the blurry license plate too.
Studios use filters to create a sense of mood. Many James Cameron movies used a blue filter.
