Hi all,
  What was the name of Sky King's sidekick that drove the Willys wagon?
 That Willys either had a Hemi, or the camera was sped up...that sucker
could fly over the hills and valleys!  And, who was the girl? As I
remember, she was a whiney blonde chick!  No, I don't have the answers!
  SKYYYYYYY KIIIIINGGGGGGG!!!!!!!!      I can almost hear the
intro...though it has been somewhere around 40 years!   The old
"Songbird" could take off in a pasture and land on a telephone wire so
Sky could save the some rancher's half dead cattle from some mean land
grabber driving an old Dodge pickup through 6" of  cow killing virus
laden mud!    I can also remember the tires squealing on the T&C as well
as on the Songbird on "any terrain!"   Now back to
today.....................
John in WI... cold and windier than a car salesman...not to mention some
farmer in WI!
