Re: movie trucks
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:

Re: movie trucks
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!)

Re: movie trucks
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.

Re: movie trucks
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

Re: movie trucks
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?

Re: movie trucks
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.
