Those Wild 60's & 70's Show Cars

[Lowprofile]

I was cleaning out some files on the old confuzer today and came across these old Pics. I remember seeing these cars at shows like the "World of Wheels" car show at the Fleet Center in Boston & The Civic Center in Providence. Any one else remember these cars. I wonder if any of them are still around?

  That last one I remember, an episode of the Munsters, that's Herman at the wheel.  Isn't that Grandpa's ride he borrows for the race?

Man i am glad someone else likes these cars..I have an enitre folder on my computer filled with shots of these cars and others. I really wish people would make these kind again..but i don't think people today quite get it.
I can remeber going to shows in the late 70's early 80's...Hotrod Show World and they had alot of these on tour.

I think the Boothill express is still around...I had pics somewhere of it in a museum but have lost them.
There was a softcovered book I used to have called Crazy Cars and it had all of these in it but i have log since lost it.

some of those cars look like george barris creations if i am not mistaken 

[burningman]

I think most of the ones pictured are Barris

  My fav. is the Munster ride, their main one that is in the beginning of show.  Any more pics of that? thx   Those are some wild cars you all showed.

  That monster cycle is scary looking, to ride I mean, what size engine is that I wonder.

[burningman]

The monstercycle has a v12 allison aircraft engine

I didn't realize until now that the Monkees car was a GTO.

I didn't realize until now that the Monkees car was a GTO.

I think Barris built it.

[bsakal]

yeah Barris built the Monkeemobile. He also built the Batmobile and both Munsters vehicles. There is a good book called "Barris TV and Movie Cars", covers all the cool stuff eh built! I think he built the Green Hornet car too!

The one that looks like an old horse drawn hearse is accuatlly the one used to carry Jesse James (the outlaw ) to his final resting place if I'm not mistaken. If it's the same one then it's also HEMI Powered! 

[burningman]

more on the boothill express..and Drache you are correct on the powerplant
heres recent pics of it..looks like someone has added a 6-71 blower...it used to just be a hillborne injection system

Anyone have a picture of the T-Bucket from the Mod Squad back in the 70s. I know where the actual car sits

[BigBlockSam]

hey
  i have alot of searches in my favorite place on my computer. one of them is George Barris . you get alot of models but every ounce in awhile you see one of his old  60's cars come up for sale. some go for alot of money and some don't go for alot. there was another shop that was building them also but i forget there name. i like the munster mobile the best.
