    We were hiking deep in the Sirras in California when we came upon Gumby siliconed to a rock on top of a cliff. One arm up in a wave. It might not have been in the middle of nowhere but from where he was you had a 360 degree view.
    He might still be there.

    The T is not the "Big T" from Monogram; I think it is the Lindberg 1/8 T! So...a real period hotrod in Gumby size...

    Roger that... I believe all of the T's in the film were Lindberg 1/8 kits, some modified a tad. Granny's car appears to be some sort of wooden toy. Gary

    The only civilian cars that went by were MG-TD's...there must have been some British car event that day. I wonder if that $17.95 tune-up special is still on?

    Too funny. Brings me back. I used to watch Gumby all the time.

    But Gumby told the Officer that it was a green hotrod. Looked blue to me.
     
  25. Huh!

    And here I thought the only thing Gumby rode was Pokey!

    I'll let you guys have your own visuals on that.

    That was the 60's.. Maybe $400 was a good deal? I remember watching Gumby and Pokey growing up..
