I have so much fun with my 65 Squad Car and my 66 Chevy convertible that I
have decided to rename them Skippy and Daphne.
Hope everyone has a great winter.

Back in the days when all cars had wide bench seats, drivers were taught to
slide across and get out on the passenger side after parking on the street.
That way, they didn't risk causing an accident by opening the driver's side
car door right when another car was coming up behind them, or worse

Bee, I was in Mt.Airy in late June and went to Wally's Fillin Station for a
squad car tour of town. They had five squad cars and each was a Ford. I think
they ranged from 1961-65. We toured with Melvin in the '64 and had a great
time. Hit the siren a couple of times to. I hope
Just heard this morning from a friend (and Mayberry fan) that a friend of
his just drove thru Mt. Airy and instead of the Ford squad cars, he claims
they are using '57 Chevys as squad cars in Mt. Airy. Not that a '57 Chevy is
a bad car, just not what was used in Mayberry. Anyone know

Could be Mayberry Squad Cars in North Carolina get away with having red
lights on them is because NC police use blue lights. Red lights are for fire
engines and EMS and a Mayberry car does not resemble either of them!!
That's my story and I'm a'stickin' with 'er!!

was doing was buying a soda and candy bar. So I'd be careful
driving a non-official looking vehicle around these parts of the country. How
do the squad cars get away with it at Mayberry Days? I suppose Mt. Airy Police
turns a blind eye for the festival.

Maybe when Teena was in town, Aunt Bee's car was the nicest available. Just
like when the governor visited, there was a transportation chairman who
secured a convertible for him and the Potato Queen. Probably the limo

the idea of squad cars being visible in neighborhoods, etc. as a crime

them.

Goober strikes me as the kind of guy who buys and sells a lot of used cars, for
example the convertible he sold to Aunt Bee later on. So he probably often had
a car or two available to lend to a friend, such as Barney.
There's no evidence that Andy ever owned a truck. True, we see one

Falcon is none other than Floyd. He apparently likes to swap cars from time

Ken Anderson ( KB ) I have noticed the Cardboard Car in a few episodes from the

notice it looks out of color and texture, the red mars light is a little taller

***How many squad cars were used in Mayberry, as far as year and model.***
Rick there were seven, the first was a '60 and the last was a '67. It was

My Great Aunt Laura had one but hers wasn't a convertible.It was Salmon

A lot of early TV shows and even movies would removed windshields from the cars
