Anybody remember the episode of Adam 12 in which Dick Clark played the owner of a race track?

Lots of cool 60's and 70's muscle cars! I remember one particular Road Runner, green, a '70 I think??? It was only a few years old when the episode was recorded.

Episode is named "Who Won" and has a bunch of nice cars in it including the 69 and 70 RR's, a couple of 64 Plymouth's, one with a lift off hood, the other with Fender Well Headers, some old Hot Rods, AMX etc. Bing Cosby's son is also in that episode plus others.

Another good one is about a theft ring of girls stealing muscle cars, one is a 70 Challenger R/T Convertible.

I have Rockford files also. And a lot CHiPs.

One of my favorite car movies and favorite movies in general is Used Cars.. You just know it's going to be an interesting movie when it has Robert Zemeckis and Steven Speilbergs name on it and the very first scene shows someone rolling back an odometer, and spraying an interior with new car smell.

How about 'The Junkman' from the maker of the original 'Gone in 60 Seconds'. So bad, its good. laugh2 drive

On the DVD I have, it shows behind the scenes how the stunts were done..... eek Long before CGI when you actually had to figure out how to make something happen. I found this part very interesting, and almost better than the movie itself. whistling

Thats it, great movie, one of my favorites. Lots of nice cars including an appearance by the Mongoose funny car in one scene, Great music in it too.

The American Muscle Car Series is also great, around 5 seasons. Available as part of Amazon prime if you dont have it you can order the whole series on DVD on Amazon pretty cheap. It was from the original Speed channel and TNN.
