BTW this show was filmed on the old RKO Forty Acres lot. So if the scenery looks familiar, it's because Metropolis...was later, Mayberry, from "The Andy Griffith Show." Metropolis on left, Mayberry on right: |

The New York Times profiled a Nash Ambassador and the man who was inspired to buy it by this TV series in "That Mild-Mannered Car of Steel" (March 5, 2010): Link to "www.nytimes.com" Its features include a front seat that folds down for a bed and a radio behind a sliding door. The enclosed front wheels, as you might expect, made u-turns difficult. |

Richie Cunningham (Ron Howard) had "Nash seats" (a/k/a "makeout seats) installed in his '53 Ford on "Happy Days," to great comic effect. /vehicle_156470-Ford-Crestline-Sunliner-76B-1953.html |

What was the justification for enclosed front wheels? |
◊ 2012-06-16 18:22 |
Did they even have a specific justification, other than "It's our thing, it makes us unique"? |

Any more aircraft pictures for IMPDb guys? |

Why? Superman can fly by himself. |
◊ 2012-06-17 11:42 |
he can, certainly... but he is not alone and the others have no other solution for fying to use planes |

It's either a trip he has to make as Clark Kent, or a bad guy getaway, or a plane Superman has to rescue. There were a few planes, this show could've been even subtitled "the Wonderful World of Planes." 1.05:1.08: 1.14: 2.04:4.11: -- Last edit: 2013-04-01 05:56:01 |

Enclosed front wheels made the Nash more aerodyamic. The trade-off, of course, would have been in turning radius. |

Happy 75th birthday to the Man of Steel! To celebrate, I've just added the cars from Seasons 5 & 6, and this finishes the series. |
