VOF, your losing it, Nykilodeon had a Oldsmobile Rocket 88 in it. There again that was in 72.

Your thinking of Andromeda, which had the KB hemi, built a bit later in 77

Andromeda is now up and running, rebuilt, and on the road again. Along with Revenge it has to be one of my all time favourite cars.

Karma Customs are producing a half dozen Revenge 'glass bodies, if anybody fancies reliving their youth?
