Chrome early-style door handles and fixed quarterlights the only things I trust, and it's a 1969+ lwb. 74+ bumpers don't match the early door handles, so add-ons. No tints so not S. 1969-ish T my best guess. Ep1.02 car looks same as main.

i got stopped when i crew was filming in my neighborhood asking if they could use my car for a show they were going to be working on, said they'd pay me and they had insurance! i've been in LA long enought ot have heard enough horror stories of cars used for film, tv- no respect i tell ya!

so . . . i gave them dave, jeremey and the guys at TRE who put together a car that fit that bill- it's no 930! for sure- just a look a like of some type- not sure on the exac specs, think it's a mid year with welded hips? - maybe dave or jeremey can chime in . . .

anyway, that's the story of the car- roughly!
