Tv cars or vehicles - what your favourite?

Love the yellow Cuda that Don Johnson and Cheech tooled around in.

I would really like to get a Hill Street Blue's police car.

Emergency Squad 51 would be cool.

Hogan's Heros German staff cars.

I dunno where AM got his, but I have a model of the same car (at least the same according to IMCDB) that AMT released back in 2004 (dunno if it was a re-release or not).  Other than eBay though I dunno where you'd get it, theres only one listed right now too.

Also, I wouldn't mind having the modified Chevy SUV that was used in Tango and Cash; talking about a cure for road rage!!!

You mean this one?

  My fav would be the Urban Assault Vehicle from ‘Stripes'.

Nice tie in. Did you know that the Two Lane Blacktop 55 is also the 55 Harrison Ford rolls racing that lovely little Deuce?

Also, the sound of the 55's 454 exhaust is used instead of the Firebird's natural exhaust sound in Smokey & the Bandit.

    My take on Christine;

She ran on evil eh' maybe we should start mass producing those, be alot cheaper to fill up that tank, :D

How about the early 70's Dodge rescue run by the LA County Fire Department as "Squad 51" on the old "EMERGENCY" series?  At one time, there was a resin kit offered to do the conversion.  Unfortunately, the company is no longer in business.  Rumor has it that the molds have been purchased, will be re-done, and the kit will be re-offered in the future...

Any real world vehicle depicted in a movie would be a cool GB.

Sticking with just TV cars or vehicles gives you plenty to choose from. We could do one for TV and once that is complete do one for movies.
