The ads to suck but it's cool watching these old movies. Got to like the Buicks on the opening shots.
there's a hulk in the wrecking yard at about 7:25 or so. Appears to be a station wagon of some kind, but it doesn't resemble any US car that comes to my mind. Has what could be wood trim around perimeters of the side view, but in b&w it's hard to tell. Anyone hazard a guess as to what make it is? I like the trips on the T-bird, guess it was just a bit TOO fast, eh?
This link contains over 100 episodes of highway patrol. http://foxeema.blogspot.com/2012/06/highway-patrol-tv-show.html Don't download anything from Gorillavid, just click the play arrow in the middle of the screen, you don't need to update your flash player. If you watch on an iPad you won't see the flash based ads.
Watched two episodes while I did my work logs - so much right with that show. So much great iron, the way it was made to look! Way cool! Thanks for that.
Say, '14... I saw this 'Hot Rod' segment of Highway Patrol in 1956. Still wondering where Mr. Matthews discovered that supercharger underneath those two Rochesters on that 303 Olds! Anybody recognize that '32 Roadster? (Lyons hub caps?) HRM feature car?
Memories of my youth watching Highway Patrol. Very cool. Other shows at this time were Wirley Birds and Rescue-8. The late 1950s. Try to remember.
