The Chrysler K-Car Club

Here in LA, a producer from Warner Brothers called me and wishes to put K cars on TV for a shoot for the year 1981 in a series called Cold Case. He needs 10 cars. Basically, the cars are trailered and parked in a parking lot. You can drive your own car of course unless you can not make the shoot. The cars just sit there. They are not moved or blown up. Deal looks legitimate. I do not want to incur any liability. The shoot is a 95 percent confirmed. Small possibility of permanent cancellation. He is willing to allow cars as new as 83 to participate. If you would like to make $300 a day and help the club get advertised, call your president at (818) 219-2587. The shoot is tentavily scheduled for August 26-28 in Bellflower, California. Here is a link to an email sent to Heath Culp of Warner Brothers today:

Wow!

What a great event! I am really reeeeally bummed that I was in Ohio with the Mighty K when y'all were in Hollywood eating like there was no tomorrow. I will keep a closer eye out for future events like this. How memorable this must have been for y'all.

Giving you my best,
Tom

Hi Tom. The show is premiering this Sunday on CBS at 9PM in Los Angeles. Should be the same time for Sacramento. My car is in some of the main shots.

Guy, i saw your 89 Aries on TV! Awsome job although im a little disspointed, for one we didnt even make it on to the credits, and the second, they didnt show hardly any k-cars only yours, the dodge 400 convertable and that low mileage one in the show room.



Today i saw an 88 dodge aries with low miles

Hi Guy!

It did air at 8pm in Sac. I taped it. Although we didn't get a lot of visual shots, "K Car" showed up in the dialog often. It was actually a very touching episode. I enjoyed it.

I would have been nice to see the show centered around out beloved K Cars, but alas we were just a mere prop for the real show.
I was not really suprised knowing that my wife had worked as an extra in TV and movies for a couple of years and out of all of that you would catch a glimpse of her and she may have been visible for a total of 30 sec. or a minite for all the sets she was on.

anyone know where i can see the show? i was out of the loop and missed it, anyone have a link to a viewing of the show online anywhere?
