    Does anyone know what episode of the Munsters the Koach first appeared in?
    I remember Lily goes to a car lot and decides to buy two cars (a t-bucket and an old funeral coach) and have them made into one car, The Munster Koach. I'm working on a final project for a college class and really need to figure out which episode this is from. Thanks.

    There should be a Munsters Fan site,,
    where they would have all the episode notes.

    Thanks, I tried that for the last hour and a half. Read them all, too. Even the Munster Koach sites don't tell which episode it first appeared in.

  6. According to this web site ...:



    <CENTER></CENTER><CENTER>[SIZE=+2]http://www.scifilm.org/tv/munsters/munsters1-4.html[/SIZE]</CENTER><CENTER></CENTER><CENTER>[SIZE=+2]The Munsters: "Rock-A-Bye Munster"[/SIZE]</CENTER><CENTER></CENTER><CENTER>[SIZE=-1]Season 1, Episode 4[/SIZE]</CENTER><CENTER>[SIZE=-1]First aired: October 15, 1964[/SIZE]</CENTER><CENTER>[SIZE=-1]by Jason Warren[/SIZE] </CENTER>[​IMG]
    ...
    This episode also features the debut of what would become the Munster family car. Man, wouldn't it be neat to have one just like it (and a few other vehicles from the series for that matter)?

    Thanks,
    Kurt

    I found it guys! I did a google search "Herman Munster birthday" and found it at IMDB. Its from the episode "Rock-a-bye Munster, where Herman thinks Lily is pregnant. The Koach is a sub plot I guess. Anyway my classmates are gonna love this.

    that's an easy one.
    it says "punk rods" on it, with a chrome knife with a little blood on it.
    here's a trivia question right back at you...
    what is the racers name that herman drags the coach against, and looses to?
     
  11. J. Tingler? :D :p

    Idahno, I'd have to look it up. I remember he was jerky.

    BTW, there's a car club (http://punkrodsmotorclub.com/) and a band (http://www.myspace.com/thepunkrods) named Punk Rods.

    Thanks,
    Kurt

    his name was "leadfoot" baylor.
    when leadfoot sees the koach pull into the pits, he says "what's that ?" to herman. hermans reply is "oh, just an ordinary every day family car, with a 425 cubic inch engine, with 10 2 barrels."
    yeah, i've seen this episode way too many times...lol
     
  14. I wanna see that episode! I looked it up and one site said Sandy Baker's dad, but also mentioned Leadfoot Baylor. Why isn't Leadfoot's last name Baker? Extra credit to anyone that can find a picture of the Punk Rods jacket.

    "A bit of Munster Trivia: I recently saw an episode of "Leave It To Beaver" on TV Land. During one of those TV Land Trivia bits, they mentioned that the Munster's House was used or was visible in some episodes of Leave It To Beaver. The two shows were filmed at the same time at the same studio."​
    Thanks,
    Kurt

    Desperate Housewife's on television now, is being filmed on the same "street". Shots have to framed to exclude the Munster house which is still on location minus its colorful inhabitants.

    hard to believe... what, with him being a frankenstien-like creature... with a vampire for a son and a dragon living under the steps.

    The nerve of those TV people...

    Next thing you're going to tell me is that the Monkee's weren't actually monkeys...

    I met Butch Patrick a couple times. The last time I talked to him he said he was building a house about 20 mile from my house at a place called Monster World. They have pretty close replicas of the munster coach and coffin car. The also had a 1/3 mile dirt track. We used to race stockcars there until a couple years ago when the track closed. The track was called Monster Hall Raceway.

    Here's the website.
