Chips episodes are good for LBC content. In one episode, two attractive
young ladies are trailering a sailboat behind an MGB. The brakes fail (how
type cast) and the guys save the day by clearing traffic and I think then
hopping into the open top car and steering it to safety. In another one, a
big guy is pissed off for getting pulled over and starts tearing the doors
off of a Mini and throwing the pieces over the guard rail.

> ABout 6 months ago I saw an episode of CHIPS on cable (TNT, maybe). THe
bad guys were stealing high end cars, and using Baker's friend's tow truck
because he owed them money. Final car to get stolen, and eventually dropped
50 feet from a scrapyard magnet was a blue RB Midget in perfect condition.
At least prior to the fall. The big scene was when Baker and Ponch save the
friend's little girl who was hiding in the Midget when it was in the air.
Lots of scenes of the MG. Wish I had it on tape...
