Expert Posts: 2312 Location: Arizona | I think it's a Matador as the wheel covers don't seem to have the spinner bars - weren't those standard on Polara's? Also, is that an Imperial on the right?

Expert Posts: 1348 Location: Valley Forge, Pa. | Was that the one where he was in a diner playing with the fortune telling machine? Obviously he did the one with the critter on the wing of the plane but didn't he make 3 episodes? Some people don't get watching the old shows but if you're into cars, you can see some really interesting ones. One Jerry Lewis movie that I haven't seen in a LONG time but I will allways remember he was a repair man of some kind and I think he had a around a 1958 Buick wagon[?]. I can picture it but its starting to fade some with age. I think it was red & white and it had some weird window set-up. It was like a Sedan Delivery only it was a 4 dr. hardtop with no windows behind the rear door. I think it had the one peice tailgate like the only the Sedan Deliverys had. I had a 56 Chevy Sedan Delivery at the time and I saw that car and just fell in love with it. Always wondered what it was. I don't know if it was something the factory could even build but, if you had the money, you could special order just about anything. | ||

Expert Posts: 1348 Location: Valley Forge, Pa. | Inger Stevens - AH YES! Or Elizabeth Montgomery & Charles Bronson. I always like the one with the poor old lady that lived by herself and the spaceship landed on her roof. Easy one for the script writers as I don't think a word was said that whole episode. yup. thats the one. another great episode is "the hitchhiker" with inger stevens. | ||

Extreme Veteran Posts: 323 Location: New Orleans-ish | TZ is probably my favorite TV show ever! A cool show in so many ways! A little trivia: Part of the 1959 pilot episode "Where is Everybody" was filmed in Courthouse Square at the Universal lot. The same clock tower building from "Back to the Future" can be seen in this episode, although it looked a bit different than it did in the 1985 movie. I didn't know this until I recently watched the pilot again and noticed the familiar layout of the area and the building itself, and I confirmed by looking up filming location. | ||

Member Posts: 22 | One of my favorite "Twilight Zone" episodes is the one from 1959 where Steve Cochran is run down by the '59 DeSoto in the street. A little old man sells (or gives) things to people he "sees" with a need, and Steve Cochran discovers the old man's psychic gift and begins to strongarm and threaten him... | ||

Location: Parts Unknown | I hope that SOMEDAY, .... when the shop is finished to a point of functionality and a few cars are back on the road, that I can slack off enough to sit my ass down and watch old time TV again. I have not watched TV of my own volition in at least 10 years. The wife person watches plenty, and I see it in passing when I come in to eat or wind down in the evening, but it sure does sound good just to hunker in on a nasty cold day and watch a slew of Perry Mason, Highway Patrol, and Twilight Zone ! | ||
