I was watching In the Heat of the Night and noticed that it was released in 1967. I decided to keep an eye out for our trucks even though there would only be one model year. I'm pretty sure this wins the thread:

There were probably 4-5 more train cars full before the end of the train.

Just watched the video. I gave up on country music a long time ago but actually enjoyed that one. Tyler lives here in the area, and that truck belongs to a young kid here in town. He works at the local Autozone and just graduated from high school last year. I think he said he bought that truck out of a field for $500 and drove it all through high school. Has a cool old logo with a bee on it on the door still.

If you only had that train now...full of 67 short steppers.

I recall watching one episode of "The Fall Guy" where they were doing a chase scene using a red 71/72 Chevy stepside 2WD. They chased him around a while and at one point, they cut away and they continued chasing him, but they swapped in a red FORD FLARESIDE! A couple scenes later and they were back to the Chevy Stepside! Horrible editing!

I still loved the show though! I actually did a jump like the intro to the show in my 69 Chevy 4WD (sort of on-purpose) and the wheels bowed out and bent both front and rear axles, just like in the intro (but my truck didn't fix itself before the next scene!)

It's from the 70s. It's a 77 ish short bed step with a 3 on the tree.

No pictures to show, but the TV show Rosanne had a '71 or '72 C-10. One episode, Dan was repairing it with a friend. IIRC, it was in the opening credits also.

Some cool trucks in there.

Here's one from Ernest Scared Stupid

**truckster** · 04-06-2022, 02:49 PM

My wife and I were watching an episode of Colombo the other night - the one where the guy trains his dogs to attack - and there's an orange Blazer that's seen in several shots.

I found a picture

**special-K** · 04-07-2022, 01:47 PM

DOH! I guess I was helping you out?? I meant to hit "quote" but must have hit "edit". There's your picture

Let's see what else I found

CSTGURU · 04-07-2022, 07:03 PM

Find the movie "NIAGRA MOTEL" with Craig Furgusson. my 71 truck is in it...a fair bit too.

**special-K** · 04-07-2022, 07:18 PM

I tried a search but didn't come up with any pictures. I guess I'd have to watch the movie. That's cool your truck was used for the movie. Or did you just happen to be at the hotel a lot?

My truck was used in niagra motel by the previous owner about 2 years before i bought it and sort of restored it. here are some pics in the movie. when i bought the truck it looked exactly like it did in the movie. rough!!

CSTGURU · 04-07-2022, 10:19 PM

This is what it looks like now (yes i changed to a 69 frontend look, but its the same 71 from the movie) the hood, boxside, and cab white are still original paint, note the dent at the rear of the box.

**special-K** · 04-08-2022, 11:28 AM

You have it looking great! Too good for that movie now

This shot is from French Connection. I don't think it got trashed

You messed with my mind for just a minute. I was thinking, "I don't remember posting that..."

**special-K** · 04-08-2022, 11:08 PM

Whoops! I need to be more careful with my extra button. Must have been mighty strange to see what "you" did

Luke in the Gilmore Gils TV Show showed this truck on and off over the run of the show.
