Gumby was Hot Rodder...

So, does this mean plastic T-Buckets are traditional?

 

As a kid I watched Gumby all the time,, as a adolescent I liked Felix the cat,but in my young adult years Fritz the cat was big time winner in my book. HRP

 

"That old lady is shady" haha...classic!

 

I watch gumby when ever I can just to look at the vintage toys.

 

This may help thing's along in that dept.............

bwhahaha. amusing none-the-less even if it is a repost

 

"Dig that daddy-o"

Loved the stereotypical black guy!!!!!

 

My wife made me a Gumby costume when I had my shop...I wore it to a party, never had so many chicks all over me... LOL

 

Sorry, but I'm with Fred on this one. Pokey?? Cmon Riot, add it up! GREAT stuff, thanks for posting. Yes, I saw it when I was a kid, but its worth seeing again, for sure. Made my morning...

 

Hey, cmon, no porn on the HAMB!!

 

I'll bet half the kids on this forum have no idea about "Fritz the cat".

 

Gumby was a rodder, a racer and even a skateboarder. Just have to watch out for those pesky Blockheads

That Fliver 500 had me on the edge of my seat. What an exciting finish!
I did kinda like the Blockhead's speedster, though.

 

I was getting into my shoebox once and this guy starts talking to me, for some reason he brings up that he's got a "Pokey" with him... Um, yeah- but he comes back with a box. He opens it up and there's a real clay Pokey horse figure- He said it was used in the animation in the Gumby show. There were probably way more Gumbys and Pokeys than there were General Lee Chargers, but it was still interesting... and weird-

Watch out for blockheads.

 

Pokey is totally slang for jail!

 

None of the people in that world seems to notice Gumby is a horribly deformed green monstrosity.

 

damn it, i wanted to say that first.

 

The fliver 500 episode must have been made much later then the hotrod episode since it has plastic toys in it.

 

I know this is 5 years old, but this post deserves seeing the car. Granny doing a burn out!!! Granny hitting the drags!!!

All of the 60’s era shows were filmed in a little studio in Glendora, CA. Never knew that....

 

Since the original link has gone dead, here's a current one.

 

"Crazy, man".

 

I have that unbuilt model kit..
Probably be awhile before I get to it... No gumbys included...

 

Let’s see a pic of the model, it’s great that you own it.

 

Is that the same people as Davey & Goliath? Looks the same. The only episode I remember, he forgot to install a cotter pin on a wheel holding it to the front axle his soapbox racer. Davey was All Set to win the big downhill race, and a front wheel fell off. Bummer dude! I always check cotter pins because of that episode though LOL

 

You got real combustion there

 

Don't feel like digging it out at the moment... But you could do a search on eBay for pictures.. The kits are still available...
Judging by the pics posted, it looks like the bobtail t bucket version..
I have the Custom T 3n' 1 version with lots of extra parts which include spoked wheels...
You could build the " Gumby" version from this kit...

 

Here's the one you want...

 

Thanx, it’s very kool to see those actual models
and know that they’re still out there.

 

I loved the cartoon "Little Susie"... it's on youtube, I looked it up the other day to show my granddaughter... she loved it too
