Remember Mannix ? One of his cars reunited with Mr Connors

[Turboomni]

Time for good memories as I was a fan of Mannix as a kid.
Sorry if a repeat for you all. Sadly I believe Mr Connors past.





And a theme by the great Lalo Schifrin

One of my favorites as well, when it's two AM and I can't sleep METV has MANNIX reruns great stuff. Anybody else remember all the cars he drove in the show?

 

[Pete Kaczmarski]

Customized Olds Toronado for first season or two.

 

[Newport 66]

Olds, Dart GT's and Camaros?

He had a Bacaruda rag top, also.

And he had a mercury conv for a few episodes in season 1....I think a cyclone, white with tan interior.

And I thought I was the only one tuned in to old Joe Mannix at 0200, lying in bed wide awake! Great show!

He drove a Cuda convt. in 70/71 then used a 71 ragtop modified to look like a 72. He then switched to a Challenger Rally sunroof car and finally a Z/28 Camaro. What other show used a modified 71 Barracuda ragtop to look like a 72?

I just DVR them... Fun to watch! I like counting how many times he gets knocked out. LOL He had a pretty hard head back then.

I think Mannix is the first color show I watched. The green Dart I definitely remember. Use to look forward to baby sitting my cousins cause my uncle had the first color tv I remember.

Before my time, but if memory serves me correctly, it was the Brady bunch?

I'm not old enough to have watched Mannix, but I love me some Lalo Schiffrin!!!

That sounds like The Mod Squad cars also.
Challenger converts then a 71 modified to a 72 conv.
“Solid Man”

Nash Bridges.

Good catch, that Gold Challenger shows up on the internet every now and then, but it's not the one I'm thinking of.
