Andy Griffith driving a Model A roadster pickup
 

Caught a movie on Youtube the other night- 1977- The girl in the empty grave- not a bad movie- What else is there worth watching?

Very, very little:) TV has gotten too stupid to even bother. Absolutely no talent in script writing coming out of Meth Head Hollywood today all they can do is feature re-makes. I watch virtually none of it anymore.

BUT I will scope out this flick just to see the Roadster PU at least it will be free to watch....

Thanks for the link so we didn't have to search for it.

Most people don’t realize that Andy had several old cars. I rebuilt a Model A engine for his A-400 when he retired to the Outer Banks of NC. I still work one day a week in his home town of Mount Airy (Mayberry) and go by his childhood home regularly.

roadster pickup ???
 

I have never seen a Model A Roadster Pickup. I have seen lots of Model A Open Cab Pickups.

It doesn't appear that this movie is currently streaming on any of the apps...unless someone's found it somewhere.
