This discussion was kicked around a few years ago on the list. I never did catch the episode but just looked it up on the internet. It is Season 1 episode 5. I'm going to Netflix it. I'll se if I can pull some screen shots of the show and post them. An Ercoupe also appeared in "Road to Rio" movie (Bob Hope, Bing Crosby). It is worth renting to se the Ercoupe and the comical bit it is in. Over all it is a good movie, lots of laughs.
