Mayberry R.F.D. had two Sweptlines on the episode I saw and most of the vehicles on the show seem to be supplied by Chrysler.

They were taken from the internet, not my TV. I haven't figured out how to save pictures on my TV and upload them here. :joker

Watched an episode of Top Gear last night, the History channel show, not the one from BBC, they ended up in an old wrecking yard full of VW Beetles during a challenge.
In the background was a lime green UTE!! every time they showed it, my ears perked up a little!!

CHiPs episode: Alarmed
Season 5 Episode #17

There is a pile-up on the freeway and the very last vehicle is a pie plate Sweptline. It flies through the air and seems airborne for an eternity then lands on the car in front of the pile-up. It was filled with tires and they all go flying everywhere.

Unfortunately, I could not locate a video or even a picture. :banghead

Thanks, I figured if I posted the season and episode that someone could find it. I tried to cut the video to show just the crash scene from 8:15 to 8:40 but it seems to have some kind of protection that doesn't allow this.

Where they buy an about 62 Crew cab from the old guy and enter Mexico.
Nice sound of the v8 as it passes the border post :clap , old guy remarking what a good old
truck it is, with a recent oil change or something.(he also played the Sheriff in
Misery)
He said he recently put new brakes on it. I just happened to see the end of this movie while flipping channels but never saw the rest of the movie. They paid the guy $40,000 for the truck.

Anyone ever seen a low budget Chicago film called "Adventures in the Sin Bin"? The "Sin Bin" was actually a 1969 Dodge A100. I own this cool van and it still sports the paint job from the movie. I scored the van in a trade, and I've been driving it daily ever since. So if you live on the north side of Chicago, you will probably see me cruising around with my kiddos. Anyway, I'm brand new to this site, and the vintage Dodge family, and so far I love it.

On the Science channel, showing the first flight of the Boeing 747 - Feb. 9, 1969. Swepty fire suppression following the 747 out on taxi, just in case.

James Garner was stuck in traffic behind a Yellow 67-ish (I think it had push-button door handles, not sure, though) D100 or 200 Custom in the beginning of an episode of "The Rockford Files." I'll post a picture if I can find one.
