This is just a what show can you name a car (or help someone else name a car from) this could also be a quiz thing
I'm going to start with A-team:
Other than the A-team GMC van (grey, black and red racing stripe) what other cars did Mr. T. drive?
I've noticed in the pilot he drives a tan Studebaker, in other parts of season 1 it's the same car only red and he also uses a red Caddy.
Can anyone name the model name and year for the Studebaker?
Can anyone do the same for the Caddy?

I'll put some easier ones in here too, just to see if this ball will role.
Name Maker and model (you get a cookie for the year) of Starsky & Hutch's car. What was it's nickname?
Name a movie made by someone who would later focus on Sci-fi, in which a mid to late 1950's T-bird with an opera window was featured.

I had a friend who bought one of the used S&H cars from the studio, inside you could see where the roof had to be welded back together. It was kinda cool.

BRG :cookie: Starsky & Hutch's Ford Torino was called The striped tomato.
Sorry, Sci-fi, hadn't heard of "the Chronicle", but I'm sure someone around here has.
No one knows the year of Mr. T's Studebaker? Bummer, I'm fairly sure it was one of the last model years and it was not the model that was nicknamed "the cornpicker"

Ford Torino.
I thought it was a Grand Torino.
First car I remember my parents owning was a blue Torino. They traded it in on a new '77 LTD.

BJ and the Bear's truck (tractor portion) was a Red & White Kenilworth (sp?) with a sleeper most likely built near Gallipolis Ohio.
Don't know the year though! :D
Here might be any easier one: Nash Bridges car that Don Johnson always drove?

I think it was a GM convertible product with a yellow paint job. Any more than that I dunno.

It was a 'Cuda. Late 60's, early '70's - I'm not sure - but it was a 'Cuda.
Why anyone would use it as a cop car.......
:rolleyes:

Dodge built the 'Cuda, didn't they.
Guess it's not a GM product.
'Course, they're all Brand X to a Ford mechanic. :D
