Beverly HillBillies and The Munsters are good too but most are only in black & white...Emergency! and The Night Stalker are in color and can be great for harvesting vintage vehicles in scenes and backgrounds. Post Them If You've Got Them! |

I watch a lot of "CHiPs" episodes with my kids - always a lot of Pontiacs following behind them.

This poor 69 GTO got "the ramp" treatment in a CHiPs episode.

Another show to check for muscle cars is "The Mod Squad" (1968-1973). Here's a 69 GTO ragtop.

 Subject: I got schooled by this iconic Pontiac "onlooker!" Originally Posted by Alvin Back in 1998 I got schooled by this iconic Pontiac "onlooker!" I noticed Jim Wangers stop and look over this rag-top '69 from top to bottom amd over again that we towed to the DAPA Pontiac Southern Nationals w Glen and Joan Duncan. I introduced myself to Jim and he asked about the car and any documentation...was really interested in options as presented and cordially advised CR factoid (Jim is great at being diplomatic) Jay Gould (was) the owner of the trophy winning 1969 Carousel Red Rag-top GTO. Jim Wangers pointed out that this GTO was a special ordered 'Judge Delete' optioned Goat - "that was the only way to get the Judge specialty color of Carousel Red on a non-Judge Goat." HERE For me this was a very pleasant exchange, a great intro meeting to Jim, and I did in fact "get schooled" by a GTO expert! Every time I see a non-Judge CR GTO I remember that great meeting and conversation.

The PY Online Forums is the largest online gathering of Pontiac enthusiasts anywhere in the world. Founded in 1991, it was also the first online forum for people to gather and talk about their Pontiacs. Since then, it has become the mecca of Pontiac technical data and knowledge that no other place can surpass.
