Who remembers a 69 daytona seen on Adam 12 or other TV series

[nascarxx29]

I watched this show for years and remember the cars on Ca streets.I sent in to my wing newsletter same inquiry way back. Did anyone rememember seeing a wingcar on the series Adam 12 .I saw a post on moparts saying they have the series online .And they saw a Challenger RT conv.And thought they saw a 69 500 .But looks like a 68 RT with headlights up .I recalled Dick Clark was in it and the guy with the daytona was Fat Charlie.Like they did a spoof on BiG Willie.And web searched my details .And nailed it to one particular episode that aired in 1972 entitled WHO WON
That was about getting racing off the streets and onto the track.There was a daytona I recall in primer and other mopars

I've seen it but I can't recall a Daytona in it.  I trust your memory over mine for sure.  A buddy of mine has it recorded so if you can't trun up a good copy anyplace else, I can make a copy from my buddy and fire it off to you.

What's your point? 

[Ghoste]

They may have been acid hippie days but they had MCG mullet paint jobs.

I have seen that episode. I posted on here a long time ago to see if anyone had seen it but nobody had.There is a shot of the daytona in the parking and if I recall it was red or orange with alot of stickers on it.One of Big Willie`s old cars??

[nascarxx29]

Its been a while .I was thinking it might have been in primer

[Ghoste]

Okay, I called my buddy tonight and he still has a copy but he ahs to locate it for me.  He says he doesn't remember a Daytona in it but it sounds like we are talking about the same episode.  He remembered because he had it on a separate tape (yes, VHS) with an episode of the Munsters drag racing on it as well.
Anyway, I should hopefully have his copy in hand no later than Thursday.

>>>>>>>>>>>>>GET THE MOVIE DAZED AND CONFUSED THERE IS A BLACK SUPERBIRD W WHITE INTERIOR IN A SCENE WHERE THEY WERE IN A DRIVE IN. IT IS JUST A FLASH OF IT FOR A SECOND  BUT I SURE DIDN'T MISS IT.   WONDER WHOES THAT ONE IS

[Ghoste]

There was a "Dazed and Confused Daytona" diecast too I believe.

[nascarxx29]

That dazed and confused Superbird was Jeff Phillips of Mo.It was found by TonyWaters Tn .It was believed also to be the Pace car from 441 Raceway Dublin Ga .Car is now back to its original B5 blue living in TX

[69 OUR/TEA]

Not a series,but how about the begining of Two lane blacktop,a drag race seen with a daytona and an AAR cuda.

[nascarxx29]

Thats the Big Willie Daytona.And it appears his last 440 yellow daytona is in the background of the TV series the Immortal

be careful tom you will get addicted

Okay, I have the tape but I haven't watched it yet.  After I told my buddy what I wanted it for, he watched and said that there is a Daytona in there twice, once about halfway through and again at the end.  He says it's red with a blacked out nosecone.  He tried to slow it down to watch it more closely but the tape got too jittery.  I'm going to burn it to dvd and then see if I can't get some shots up here.

[nascarxx29]

Thanks it confirmed the car and the episode .The car had some primer .I didnt recall the red.The driver was Fat Charlie.But 1972 was sometime ago

[Ghoste]

Yes, he mentioned Fat Charlie.  (do you want a copy of the whole thing or just to see some screenshots of the car?)

[nascarxx29]

If not to much trouble .The whole episode that be another piece to ad to the collection. Thanks

[nascarxx29]

[Ghoste]

Definitely red with a blacked out nose (that Fat Charlie was a bad dude).  I need to get the dvd finalized so I can send you your copy.  I'm also trying to figure out how to grab a screen shot from to post here.

EDIT:  And then I saw the other thread...
