The Legend Jack Lord in that impeccably clean Mercury... Trademarks of the show... Back when we sedans with elegance, class, and comfort...❤❤

The sight of those old land yachts makes me miss my old '71 Chrysler Newport. Beast of a car.

I owned a Fiat X19 when I lived in Hawaii. Fortunately with 65 hp I never had to outrun McGarrett! Over 50 mph it smoked and spewed oil like James Bond's AM.

I had a 68 Montego MX in burgundy with black vinyl top and a GT 390. Most of the 68 's shown are Park Lanes which were full size cars while the Montego was a mid size. The beautiful style was almost the same other than size. I think the car at 1.42 is actually a Montego, judging by the large front fender marker light.

For a big car got it around nicely - my brother who was on the way to work - saw Jack Lord getting his newspaper in the morning yelled out Book em Danno - Jack Lord raised his newspaper and smiled 😎

One of my fav mercurys....but extra special how it could go from a 4 door to a 2 door and then back to a 4 door in the same case sequence...
@cellpat7392Ай бұрын
The elegance this car exuded is without question. I'm also surprised that Garrett had a 2 door fastback model of it too. I had never seen one.
@QueenAnne3958Ай бұрын
I know he used one for part of the series and then they retired it and switched to the 4 door.
@cellpat7392Ай бұрын
@@QueenAnne3958 oh. Had never seen a fastback 2 door version of that. The 4 door car looks more official.

It’s funny, a few scenes show a two door model? I don’t remember him ever driving a 2dr.

Having lived in Brooklyn for a couple of years I am not unfamiliar with this kind of driving.

Hahaha, Jack had a lead foot. Many of the tire squeals were added post-production. There were times you would hear it on a dirt road, lol.

He must be the blandest ever tv cop. I literally cant recall anything about him.
