whos got ralph malph's car now.

thats not a big suprise. cindy williams played they younger girlfriend in graffitti.
she played the older streetwise girl that fonzie sets richie up with in happy days. and then got her own show for it.
they were just keeping their friends working. nothing wrong with that imo.
i wonder whatever happened to the other chick?

 

In the pictures of Ralphs car on the set you can see the top of the knucklehead HD that fonzie road in the first few episodes

 

I remember seeing the "ralph" car in the car corral at Carlisle in the early to mid '90s. It was a bit ragged at the time, and the pictures on this thread look like the current owner has straightened it out.

 

Happy Days was great during the "Rock Around the Clock" theme song days. Ralph's car is bitchin'!!!

 

Wow!! I've never seen Happy Days before! Is it some kind of 50's Reality TV show?

 

Sort of Milwaukee Shore with a laugh track

 

reading this now makes me want to share our clubs'
"brush with greatness"

The Fonz with the ladies of the Drifters Car Club at Pittsburgh World of Wheels.........
the sweater gives him that " Mr.Rogers look"

 

So, were those hideous, boxy, sheetmetal, heating duct lookin' scoops a 70's thing?

 

That is the first time I've seen a scoop like that and I grew up in the 70s, so I'm going with "No". BTW, I like it.

 

Aaaaaayyy!!!! I've got a Model Aaaaaaaayy!!!!

 

That show was garbage

 

not sure who owns it ... but it was on display at foxwoods casino over the summer... very very cool.. even if the headers were no connected? lol....

 

Watched the original Herbie movie with the grandkids yesterday. I think I saw the pickup in a few race scenes.

 

They always mentioned that MR.C (the dad) drove a DeSoto. Did they ever show it?

I liked that show when I was a kid, and didn't understand quality TV yet.

 

Yes. In fact, in one of the early episodes, Richie races some guy in the DeSoto; the Fonz calls in some guys to hop it up before the race, and one of them is carrying what looks like an Edmunds intake.

 

Damn I thought everybody has seen that show.

 

Yes, it was a 46-48 DeSoto with the optional luggage on the roof. Chrysler luggage racks of the 42-48 era were very stylish and had thin wood slats mounted in brackets to support the luggage or cargo. No bike mounts though.

 

Yes, my friend Jerry Duncan still owns this...here is a picture from June 19th (Father's Day) at the Red Carpet Rumble at Foxwoods Casino in Connecticut

 

You are correct sir. The PU was used in the Mexican road race in The Love Bug. Apparently the frame got pretty mangled when they filmed it too.

 

Is the bed somehow moulded into the frame rails? Or are my eyes playing games with me?

 

looks more like "ass bandit" to me...

 

I heard the flames on ralfs pickup were painted by von dutch! henry winkler was the first star i ever met that didnt let me down! Real class act!

 

this thread has jumped the shark...

Twice, apparently, because someone already posted the picture of that.

 

Be nice to know if Ralphs car was'' built'' or borrowed for the show,whichever,i liked it!

 

Hey, where is Mr. C's Desoto land yacht?

 

Mr C's land yacht Desoto is in the Lemay collection in Tacoma. It was at the old location.

 

First time I saw this thread.
Good stuff.......

 

Nads is right. I remember the juvenile delinquents in 1959 and compared to them, Fonzie was a fairy

 

Carlisle is correct. The car was there in the corral for about $4000.00. There was documentation too.....a TV Guide book with the car and the boys from Happy Days on the cover......as I recall, it wasn't getting too much attention went I was walking by.
