<VV> Tim Allen's 55 Nomad (little Corvair)

[Charlie]

Actually, I was referring to the 55 Nomad episode, but good to hear he
treated our Corvairs with a little more respect !!!

I have the episode somewhere on my hard drive.  The car that got crushed was
a black EARLY Corvair.

So, "no classics were harmed or injured in the making of this episode" ?

If I ever see it re-run, I'd play it s-l-o-w to see if they 'technically
augmented' that part ?
Has anyone recorded that show ?


Maybe there was one that was previously damaged, that they used and then
faked the I-beam scene, which would be my hope.

Corvair or not, that was a nice car, and I hope it was not sacrificed for a
few laughs ? !

There was a trailer to that episode where they showed that they didn't
actually drop the I-beam on the car that was used in the show...not sure
where they got the one that they did drop it on though.

The Home Improvement episode with the Corvair was complimentary towards the
car if I remember correctly.
