Well overdue.
The complete set can be had on DVD from HMV at the moment - a mere £20 for one of the best ever US tv programmes.

IMO anyway.

I don't see what people see in the Daytona, not a pretty car, sounds nice, but isn't pretty.
Excuse me? Quite possibly one of the purest & most beautiful cars ever built.

The coupe was gorgeous, the convertible jaw droppingly stunning.

I might be slightly biased as I ran a Daytona, RPH 174L, as a company car for 12 months back in the '80's however I think most people will agree that the Daytona is beautiful.

Here's the MV car so you can play spot the difference. Door handles and mirrors were the biggest clues.

I thought tge windscreen shape and missing quarterlights were more obvious. Looks exactly like a Stingray windscreen.
The huge aerial on the back for the remote gives it away
Thats the aerial from his 80s car phone laugh

More classic Daytona action in the best TV series EVER.

This is the end of an episode where a retired cop that ended up in the nut house claims to have found and apprehended a drug dealer that went missing years ago. He called Crockett to tell him he's finally caught up with the guy, and Crockett and Tubbs head out to meet him.

Just the coolest series ever screened... cool

StreetHawk was fake frown
So was Blue Thunder & AirWolf frown
fk off!

Airwolf was real!!,
I think I read somewhere, perhaps Wikipedia (so its probably untrue) but Airwolf was sold to some German air ambulance type of mob after the series finished. It was then in a fatal accident.
Nooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo weeping

Airwolf - as a TV 'prop'


That same helicopter crashed in Germany in 1992, killing the pilot and a two-man medical crew.
Why does an air ambulance need rocket launchers, machine guns and stealth mode?

The turbo boost and supersonic speed i can understand, 'cos you get to the hospital faster
