I remember the P1800, that's one of the reasons I bought one. I think
he also drive a Jensen Interceptor on the TV show.
Speaking of all these cars, I watched "Those Magnificent Men in their
Jaunty Jalopies" last night. I thought it had a little more action and
humor in it. But what do you expect from a 30 year old memory. Still it
was very cute. (Now I'm waiting for my copy of "Those Daring Young Men
in their Flying Machines" to arrive. Anyway, I really couldn't say what
any of the cars in the movie were. One of the villians drove a car with a
Mercedees emblem on it. Sure wish I know what all the car were.
