Ever see Darrin's boss, Larry Tate's car? If I remember correctly, it was a gold '68 with hubcaps. It's been awhile since I saw it.

That's probably what I was thinking of. It was a long time ago but I knew it was a 68-72. I remember the Camaro. Darrin had a 68.

This one has a luggage rack.

different view of the Camaro.

After looking it up, it looks like she had a new car each year. There is also an image of a c2 on the website.

That's a 67. He must have gotten a 68 when the 68 tv season started. It was a hardtop. Nice pictures.

Along with the C2

I was wrong. The 67 - 69s were convertibles. Really cool pics.

Bewitched and Bonanza were always two of my favorite shows as a kid, because they were sponsored by Chevrolet

Obviously, Bonanza didn't feature Chevrolets in the program (like Bewitched did), but it was always heavy with Chevrolet commercials. If there was a car used in an episode of Bewitched, it was Chevrolet. Besides the Camaros and Corvettes, I seem to remember Daren driving an Impale SS convertible, in the series around 1967.

You guys are great. What a classy way to remember how Chevy influenced those TV shows.

Convertible Camaros, including a RS '68? The C2 roadster. Man, those were heady times.

... and that picture of Elizabeth Montgomery... whew!

No, just remember shows when they have cool cars in them. Larry Hagman had a 66 GTO on I Dream of Jeannie. The oldest boy on My 3 Sons had a 64 or 65 GTO. I only saw shots of the interior. If you look on youtube there is an old GM promotional film with the stars of Bonanza and other GM sponsored tv shows talking about the new Chevrolets. Parnell Roberts talked about the new vette. 65 or 66 I believe. They say Dan Blocker had one of the Z16 Chevelles that they only made a few of.

Let's not forget Sam "Mayday" Malone in Cheers with his red (was it '67?) midyear!

UPDATE- Im told one episode was a '67, and one was a 63/4!
