Andy Griffith - "Hot Rod Otis"

love it or hate it, a boat load of folks turned out in Mount Airy last weekend for the 50th anniversary of the show and for Mayberry Days. I'll try and find a pic, but the Aunt Bee look alike in the parade was riding in an old school duece highboy!

 

Remember the episode where Otis had an invisable dog named Spot? Loved that one!

 

After the Eddie Haskell rear end removal, they probably wrote it off and junked it!

Larry Mondello's mom was 65 because his Dad, Joe Mondello, was 80!
Uh, Mr, Mondello...What is your line of business?
"Head porter."
Wow, you're the Head Porter? What do you make in tips?.....

Tsshhh...k-Boom!

 

Damn good shows, but could have used some Studebakers.

 

They did...

 

I dont htink Otis was drunk all the time....I think he was just so happy to own a 33 Cabrioet!!

 

here...

 

You are right, they did. Good eye.

 

I'll watch any episode of Andy Griffith/Leave it to Beaver/The Munsters/Beverly HillBillies/I Love Lucy + many others before I'll watch any of the CRAP on TV today. These shows were well produced.

Leave it to Beaver --> I thought Wally's first car was a '53 Chevrolet Bel Air convertible? IMO, Larry Mondello was the funniest character on the show!!

 

Wally's '53 Chev was a 210 ...

 

now don't drive Ward's Plymouth Savoy on the back roads to the track meet! ya may wind up flooding her out in the ...........DIP!

 

Wally had a car before the '53 Chev. He bought a '35 or '36 Ford 5-window that him and the Beav cut up and sold for scrap since Ward said he couldn't keep it.
A couple other notable first cars:
Greg Brady's '56 Chev Convertible
Keith Partridge's early 50's Hudson

 

did'nt greg brady paint the 56 convertable with a brush?

 

how bout the episode where barny bought the old ford from grand ma walton and the steering column started coming up toward him.
