1972 Dodge D-100 Mary, Mary, Bloody Mary (1975)	Agree on Dodge, I would say mid 1970s. -- Last edit: 2010-12-30 15:03:21	2010-12-30 15:02
1948 Ford F-1 Mary, Mary, Bloody Mary (1975)	fuegoturbo wrote Ford F-1 ? Yes, 1949-50 or so. Very nicely preserved for this time period. Edit: I can't see whether the areas around the headlights, on either side of the grille, are beige. If so, that would make this a '48. -- Last edit: 2010-12-30 15:01:13	2010-12-30 14:58
Spencer's Mountain (1963)	Done. This movie was set present day, yet it inspired the TV series "The Waltons," which was set in the U.S. Depression of the 1930s. This movie was filmed on location in California and Wyoming (including Grand Teton National Park and Jackson Hole).	2010-12-30 09:48
1978 Oldsmobile Cutlass Cruiser Brougham Savage Beach (1989)	rjluna2 wrote I doubt that Chevrolet Malibu sold with faux woodies. Some of the Chevrolet Malibu Classic Estate wagons from the 1979-83 or so era did, indeed, have faux wood grain. Here's one example: http://www.stationwagonforums.com/forums/showthread.php?t=5068	2010-12-30 09:08
1948 Packard Custom Eight Victoria [2233] Back to the Future Part III (1990)	rigormortor wrote Nice car, bad choice of clothes.... The bad choice of clothes was noted by everyone in the movie, including Marty himself. He compared it to what Clint Eastwood would've worn.	2010-12-28 17:04
1961 Rambler American Convertible Coupe Christmas Cottage (2008)	1961-63.	2010-12-28 16:33
Rudolph, the Red-Nosed Reindeer (1964)	Interesting note, rjluna: the first two years this show appeared on TV, its main advertiser was actually General Electric. The first year, Herbie and the rest of the elves even did the commercials!	2010-12-27 17:53
1949 De Soto An Affair to Remember (1957)	Is this the one that runs over Deborah Kerr?	2010-12-27 15:08
1982 Oldsmobile Firenza Return to Mayberry (1986)	We see Opie driving this car just long enough to crash it into the tree...just like he did with his bicycle in an episode of the series.	2010-12-26 15:57
1929 Ford Model AA Return to Mayberry (1986)	The Darlings are in this vehicle. They have the distinction of being the only characters to have the same make and model vehicle as they did on the original 1960s series.	2010-12-26 15:56
1964 Chevrolet C-Series Return to Mayberry (1986)	In this movie, Gomer and Goober run a garage together and this is their tow truck.	2010-12-26 15:55
1972 Chevrolet LUV Return to Mayberry (1986)	In the original series, Otis was the town drunk, but in this movie he's the town ice cream man. This is his work vehicle.	2010-12-26 15:54
1981 Chevrolet Malibu 9C1 Return to Mayberry (1986)	This was the Mayberry squad car driven by Barney. In the 1960s the Mayberry cruisers were always full-sized Fords.	2010-12-26 15:53
1981 Chevrolet Impala Return to Mayberry (1986)	This was Andy's car in the movie. Opie's wife gives birth in the back seat.	2010-12-26 15:52
Chevrolet Step Van Christmas Cottage (2008)	I was thinking either Chevy or Grunman/Olson, but the grille looked more like a Chevy.	2010-12-24 22:39
1949 Jaguar Mk.V Christmas Cottage (2008)	Thanks for the catch, DynaMike. Uploaded with ImageShack.us	2010-12-24 22:23
1982 Oldsmobile Firenza Return to Mayberry (1986)	I was thinking a Buick Skyhawk or something similar?	2010-12-24 22:18
1976 Dodge Aspen Christmas Cottage (2008)	Thanks carob, I didn't know if it was a Dodge or a Plymouth.	2010-12-24 22:18
1996 Mercury Sable Christmas Cottage (2008)	That's why I included it, because it was a goof. The white one is the one I made the page for, but the black Isuzu-looking vehicle next to it is also an anachronism.	2010-12-24 22:13
Return to Mayberry (1986)	-- Last edit: 2010-12-24 22:05:09	2010-12-24 22:04
Christmas Cottage (2008)	The mural Thomas Kinkade paints in town, includes this likeness of a '63 Ford Galaxie (500?). Unfortunately I couldn't find the real world "model" unlike the '59 Ford.	2010-12-24 21:53
Christmas Cottage (2008)	This movie, about a formative Christmas in the life of artist Thomas Kinkade, is set in 1977 but was released in 2008. You'll note a couple of more recent vintage cars got in by accident. -- Last edit: 2010-12-24 22:27:33	2010-12-24 21:47
Return to Mayberry (1986)	The 1986 TV movie that reunited the surviving cast and characters of "The Andy Griffith Show." Mayberry was a "Ford" town in the 1960s, but note in the 1980s it's become more of a Chevy town.	2010-12-24 14:41
1973 Ford LTD Country Squire The Main Event (1979)	Again, LTD Country Squire from roughly 1968-late 1970s.	2010-12-22 19:52
1973 Ford LTD Country Squire The Main Event (1979)	It's usually called an "LTD Country Squire" from this era.	2010-12-22 19:51
1982 Chrysler LeBaron Convertible Hardbodies (1984)	That's what I was thinking, 1986 or so.	2010-12-19 16:06
1973 Ford LTD Wagon Better Off Dead... (1985)	This is s Country Sedan for sure.	2010-12-18 16:58
1989 Oldsmobile Eighty-Eight Royale Turner & Hooch (1989)	This is the car that the dog "eats" the interior! "You don't eat the car!"	2010-12-18 16:28
1958 Pontiac Ambulance Hush...Hush, Sweet Charlotte (1964)	Looks like a '58 Pontiac Bonneville Ambulance?	2010-12-18 16:21
1964 Dodge Dart Hush...Hush, Sweet Charlotte (1964)	The highlighted car is a Dodge Dart, about '63-'64 or so. And I think I see a nice '64 Chrysler behind it.	2010-12-18 16:18
1964 Chevrolet C-10 Stepside Hush...Hush, Sweet Charlotte (1964)	Chevrolet C-10, and the thumbnail shows what appears to be the '62 grille.	2010-12-18 16:16
1964 Ford Custom Hush...Hush, Sweet Charlotte (1964)	Ford Custom, in fact, based on the side trim. Agree with 1964.	2010-12-18 16:14
1965 Sunbeam Alpine Series V Get Smart (1965-1970)	This appears to be a different car than the Tiger Max drives in the opening credits and throughout seasons one through three. It pops up late in season three. dsl wrote Yes, I'd say it's worth a page. Looks as if it's been debadged/detrimmed to deliberately blur whether it's an Alpine or Tiger. I think it is an Alpine S5 (Sept 65+, no lettering above grille) which has been Tigerised by the chrome side strip. However proper Tiger Mk1 would have it interrupted by Tiger script on front wing. Missing front wing badge is because while both Alpine S5 and Tiger had these badges, the text was different according to model. [Tiger Mk2 (Jan 67) did not have the side strip and grille was different, but did have chrome sill and wheel arch strips, so is probably irrelevant]. Wheels not diagnostic - some Tiger Mk1s had Alpine-like hubcaps and whitewalls as here. I think the Alpine and Tiger had different inset grille badges, so it is interesting that the badge has been removed. Perhaps they had to return the 64 Tiger so created an Alpine-based lookalike for later series/episodes. The alternative that this is a Tiger is possible, but there seems no obvious reason to alter all the badging and trim away from the style of the previous car and create the various contradictions.	2010-12-17 11:51
Harley-Davidson Highway Patrol (1955-1959)	Saw that episode yesterday. The guy on the Harley is none other than Clint Eastwood, making his television debut.	2010-12-17 11:14
Remember the Night (1940)	Oh yes I do like Barbara Stanwyck.	2010-12-17 10:28
BSA B40 Get Smart (1965-1970)	What's interesting is, this appears to be a different motorcycle than the one Max is driving in the outdoor scenes of the same episode.	2010-12-17 00:59
1975 Ford Granada Ghia Cheers (1982-1993)	This actually appeared in the opening credits for every episode during the show's 1982-93 run. The episode should probably be listed as "OpCr".	2010-12-16 15:57
1967 Mercury Park Lane Get Smart (1965-1970)	I couldn't find a decent shot, but I do remember it being a hardtop.	2010-12-16 13:35
1968 Chevrolet Nova Get Smart (1965-1970)	The fifth and final season.	2010-12-16 13:34
1967 Volkswagen Sedan 'Beetle' [Typ 1] Get Smart (1965-1970)	I don't know how I left off the star rating on this one. Two stars.	2010-12-16 08:49
Get Smart (1965-1970)	Completed: season 3 and most of season 2. Unfortunately Netflix has one season 2 disc missing. Hopefully I'll get my hands on that one soon and finally finish off the series. And one more thing: Should I add a page for this one? The badging and trim appears a little different from the '64 Sunbeam Tiger he drove the first few years and in the 1965-67 opening credits. ("Tiger" is missing from the front fenders and "Sunbeam" is missing from the trunk, plus there's one long, uninterrupted spear along the side. I'm assuming the gun wasn't factory original.) It could be an Alpine instead of a Tiger, or a Tiger from a different year...you tell me. -- Last edit: 2011-08-21 20:04:42	2010-12-16 05:53
1973 Chevrolet Caprice Classic Convertible Dexter (2006-2013)	I suspect the upholstery and steering wheel aren't original equipment either.	2010-12-15 19:49
1942 Plymouth Special De Luxe Station Wagon [P-14] Holiday Inn (1942)	...which makes it all the more sad when it ends up in a lake!	2010-12-15 07:12
Dead Men Don't Wear Plaid (1982)	I love that running joke about the bullet!	2010-12-15 07:08
1940 Buick Special Sedan [41] Christmas in Connecticut (1945)	This is actually supposed to be a Connecticut Highway Patrol car. I almost gave it two stars since the two people you see seem to acknowledge it. ("Looks like we have company.")	2010-12-14 15:27
unknown Christmas in Connecticut (1945)	That's what I thought too but wasn't sure.	2010-12-14 15:19
1941 Cadillac Series 63 Touring Sedan [6319] Holiday Inn (1942)		2010-12-14 05:28
1942 Plymouth Special De Luxe Station Wagon [P-14] Holiday Inn (1942)	Can anyone make out the small badge next to the driver's door? It looks like it might say "Special DeLuxe."	2010-12-14 05:26
1942 Plymouth Special De Luxe Station Wagon [P-14] Holiday Inn (1942)	I love woodies and I was especially frustrated I couldn't find the make or model of this one. I thought Plymouth but the grille didn't look right, but I was thinking about the '41. -- Last edit: 2010-12-14 05:21:38	2010-12-14 05:20
1941 De Soto De Luxe [S-8] Holiday Inn (1942)	De Soto?	2010-12-14 04:49
