When I was a teen, Emma, we knew engines as well. I would be sitting in the living room in our corner house and ID many of them: Ford 289, 390, etc., 283, 327, 396 Chevy. Various Chrysler engines, 273, 383, 426, etc. The VW was a humdinger, lol. They all had their own sounds.

Yes emma, and those of us who were kids in those days checked out all the new models that came out in September, each year. We couldn't just tell a car was a Chevy, say, we would instantly know if it was a '57, '58, '59, '60 or '61. The witnesses in these shows may just say "it was a new-looking blue sedan," but in real life nearly everyone could name make, model and year. The homogenization of car appearances started in the '70s, and was complete by the mid-'80s.

I wasn't even "swimming" when these were made, but they are brilliant and give a good running for their money for the modern programmes!! Glad Foxeema made available.
This episode has got to be one of my favorites, where Dan Matthews and his officers are protecting a retired mobster. The fellow playing the mobster does a great job in his portrayal of his character. I just love the way they end up bonding during the episode.
It's one of my favorite episodes too, except not one one of the mobsters had a last name that ended with a vowel 😂😂 Nearly all organized crime back then were Italian hoodlums.
One of the other viewers had commented that this Show is like a time machine, taking us back in accurately capturing the social culture, clothes and what are now classic cars back then. Broderick Crawford and William Boyette were akin to television's original dynamic duo which preceded the original Batman and Robin television show.
The guy playing the retired gangster is Carleton Young, a favorite of John Ford for his westerns. He had one of the great lines in "The Man Who Shot Liberty Valance". "When the legend becomes fact, print the legend". This was one of the better episodes. Good interplay between Mathews and the retired gangster. The one thing that wasn't logical is the police using lever action winchesters instead of one of the many surplus M1 rifles available at that time.
@@lindycorgey2743Well yeah, the 30-30 is way more powerful than the *M1 carbine,* but the OP didn't mention anything about that. He was very clear that there were tons of surplus M1 rifles they could have used.
I keep saying the the last episode was the best until the next one. This was a great episode. Casting Carleton Young as the retired mob boss was spot on and his performance with Broderick was a perfect fit.
@@alexkije That's a 54 Oldsmobile 88. Actual CHIP's car as were the 55 Buick Centuries. However the CHIP that supplied their cars when this show began pulled out due to production disagreements or I also heard Crawford had a DUI and that was the reason. A 56 Buick Super 4 dr hardtop was used until the show could replace the actual CHIP cars with cars made up to look aulthenic.
Carleton Young (1905-1994) was a staple in the 1950s appearing in dozens of TV shows and films, some small parts and others quite prominent such as this one. He carries the episode quite well and a good lineup of cars and trucks show up.
You have to love the theme and commercial break soundtrack music! And this was real music folks! Those horns are from a real orchestra, not a computer,synthesizer or tape loop. My how times have changed!
That music is provided and performed by the David Rose orchestra, also known for their performance of "The Stripper", an Outstanding song often heard in Films, and Gentlemen's Clubs!! Noice.
Carleton Young who played Jack McCall had an illustrious career in westerns and gangster films. He also had a part in the cult classic, “Reefer Madness”.
The credits for this and several other "Highway Patrol" episodes show Quinn Martin as "Audio Supervisor." He later formed QM Productions, the company that produced "The Fugitive" and "The Streets of San Francisco," among other programs.
Quinn was the audio supervisor for the entire first season except the first couple of episodes and the first half of season 2. He got his foot in the door for sure and had some awesome TV shows under his belt in the 1960s & 70s.
30-30 winchester ,I bought one in Elgin, Oregon in1971 for 55 American dollars at a hardware store.A 32-30 special ,open buckhorn sights.I was deadly with that rifle.Wish I still owned it.Model 94 it was..
A 1955 Oldsmobile is flying down the highway at the beginning and then transforms into a Buick turning onto the side road and pulling up to the house. In those days they reuse clips from different episodes to save money.
@@Timewontletme There was a shot of Kojak getting out of his car and going into a building that cropped up in one episode after another. It was easy to spot because he took a little skip as he got round to the front of the car, but they still used it. And every week saw the same clip of Batman and Robin rushing into Gotham Police HQ.
@Milton Holley .. What about the 56' Chev Belair?, A friend of mine had a 57' Chev with a false box on the Hood, and Big Feet, it still ran and looked Great even though there was no real blower Ha!!! :P] .v ..
Explosion. Trooper doesn't react or go investigate, just calmly stays back standing by patrol car until Matthews comes around corner and dishes out orders.😂
This show is improving! We are seeing better nuance in writing, acting and especially our hero "Dan "Always Gets His Man" Matthews. Less of the dramatic one liners and better acting! 🐈⬛head bonk
HA !! The last Hitman was played by Paul Brinegar, who went on to play "Wishbone" in CBS TV's great Friday night western RAWHIDE. You may remember he was the Cook on the Cattle Drive, and mentor to one "Harkness Mushgrove" ... aka Mushy !
American cars were so much better in the 1950s. Big and solid, and each brand had it's own distinctive styling. Even the dashboards were classy. Today, all cars have the same streamlined, sand dune shape. I don't think today's cars will turn into classics like the old 1950s cars.
@@DavidSmith-sb2ix If you mean clowns like Ocasio-Cortez, Bernie, Warren, etc., you are right. It's unbelievable that we live in a world where people like that are taken seriously instead of being in a Saturday Night Live skit.
Interesting/informative entertaining Realistically. Portrayed citizens/criminals/law enforcement officials. A nice relaxing episode in the country side @ A farm-!!!🤗. Enjoy viewing the van & police cars. Although no Walter Winchell/Art Gilmore did a great job commenting-!!!😉Remember Uncle Broderick acting in other productions.
Jimmy, the young man who delivered a McCall’s hay was Jonathan Haze, who later appeared in Roger Corman films, including Seymour in “Little Shop of Horrors.”
Yeah, he was pretty pathetic alright. He should have taken a few more shots as both men were open targets, but I guess he didn't have much confidence in himself so instead he took off and ran.
This one was all shot out in Newbury Park, Ca. The bend in the highway where they turn onto the dirt road is now Borchard Road offramp. Hardly any of those oak trees still exist.
OOOH THE CARS!!THOSE BEAUTIFUL CARS!!! WOW!! WONDERFUL!!😀😀😄The writting in the episodes that I have enjoyed is great, the cars are a joy to watch in every scene , WOW😊
I know these are to be from true stories but could someone really miss with a scope and rifle from such a short distance?(4:23). Well..I guess he was a city businessman.
My 15 year old couldn't miss from that spot. He would NEVER shoot at a human being but, I've seen him shoot at cans on our Farm and I pity the poor fool who goes up against him in a war zone.
@@GiacomoVeteran That is nothing to be proud of, unfortunately. Do you not have any aspirations for him beyond an aptitude for devices that cause only harm ? What a greater justification it would be for your paternal pride if you nurtured in him the constructive ambitions that would benefit others. He would never shoot at a human being, you say, but how do you know ? No-one who has ever murdered with firearms would have intended to do so from the first moment they held a gun, but they did. The atrocities that blight modern America, every school shooting, every attack on a shopping mall, every church massacre, all the tragedies that break decent hearts were committed by people whose parents would have said exactly what you have. There is no honorable justification for guns. We don't need the NRA or some Constitutional amendment that no-one can even recite accurately to guide our consciences. Guns are evil. We need not be.
@@GiacomoVeteran The 15 year-old won't last a minute in a war zone, calling his ma for help. You have to be a full-grown adult to be an efficient fighter. In world war two, kids his age were used in defensive positions in Berlin, for lack of adult soldiers, and surrendered in droves only after a few hours of fighting, crying! And those kids were Germans, raised in a war-torn country. What chance do you think your pampered kid stands in a war? Zero. It takes more than shooting skills to fight in a real war.
Man they used that panel wagon in a lot of episodes.I would love owning that thing.Had a Dodge panel Wagon once. Kept throwing starters and u-joints and clutches.Ford made the best.
Well I guess I stand corrected. After saying how, in my previous post, everybody is always so stylish in this show, Dan Matthews picks this one episode to be without his jacket and tie.
Suits! Even shooters wore suits back then. Short neck ties were the thing. "I don't recall," and "I don't remember" was used back then to thwart investigations, and still is used now. Criminals don't change, just get worse as do their crimes. Matthews did good, stayed true to his beliefs and standards. Good man, Matthews. And, his team is great, too. Dedicated. We need that now more than ever.
Jack McCall was the guy who killed Wild Bill Hickock. This guy sure is dressed up for ranch work. Dan in shirt sleeves, rolled up, no hat, and sunglasses. Livin' large! 22:00 The panel truck returns! It would be the height of irony if all those "hits" were set up by the Highway Patrol to fake McCall into giving testimony. Yep, those clowns are murder on the highway. Especially when 20-25 of them get out of the same car.
Retired gangster Jack Mcall, an ice cold 26 mins I thought. "Highway Patrol to headquarters, this is Matthews." Matthews actually has time on his hands to throw some horseshoes while the rancher takes a nod as if he were attending a family reunion, I don't get it, do you? Mcall still doesn't give up any 411 during the protection support. At least she sports the white shirt with his sleeves rolled up.
I’m 46, and discovered this show 5 or so years via Me-TV, and is now one of my favorite shows!

Nice, the state police get to ride around in '55 Buick Century's.

I was suspicious of the hay delivery
This is a great show!!
Not sure if I want to see next week's show, I hear it's very unusual.

I noticed that Matthews' fever blister disappeared at the end when he talked about clowns on the road are murder.
those end pieces were recorded in a batch so it would have been filmed before the cold sore.
@@lisamiller8174 And he would have no idea what next week's episode would be, let alone whether it would be "unusual".

Hay, that looks like straw, and the announcer calls it alfalfa. Ha
AHhhhh....The old "3 Hand Grenades in the Alphalfa" trick...Mathews should have seen this coming from 3 fuloughs away !
You meant _"furlongs"..._ a _"furlough"_ is like a vacation.
Look at all that land and no cars on the road!!!
That hit man has to load his weapon after he has his mark in sight
And he has to perform his hit just when police officer Dan Matthews happens to be there instead of waiting for a better time.
AND he misses despite using a telescopic sight.
A real professional!
At 13:37, did anyone notice a fly on Broderick Crawford? Then it crawled right inside his shirt. Got to hand it to him; he didn't flinch!

Beautiful, but not quite as reliable. Ever notice how often they die when backing up?
The way they were unloading that hay looked harder then just doing it by hand
And the hey went nowhere- there was no door to a loft. The props man never saw a working ranch
Good grief, the sniper sees the cops are there and he shoots anyway? Can't outrun the radio.

Worst sniper in the history of snipers. Shoots once,misses and runs.
So sure of himself he only brought one round LOL
Yeah, he was pretty pathetic alright. He should have taken a few more shots as both men were open targets, but I guess he didn't have much confidence in himself so instead he took off and ran.
And I ran I ran so far away
That may have been the point
I would say that if he missed, that makes him a very good sniper indeed. How can failing to cause loss of life be bad ?

1962pjh Looked like a fly to me. Pretty funny!

Good hallucinogens.
To boldly go ...
Well I guess I stand corrected. After saying how, in my previous post, everybody is always so stylish in this show, Dan Matthews picks this one episode to be without his jacket and tie.
He was on vacation after all.
Cool episode go Dan 😎
The officer in the patrol car just sat there during and after the shooting.
Don't get involved, his mother told him.
I like it when they broke out the Winchesters.
Suits! Even shooters wore suits back then. Short neck ties were the thing. "I don't recall," and "I don't remember" was used back then to thwart investigations, and still is used now. Criminals don't change, just get worse as do their crimes. Matthews did good, stayed true to his beliefs and standards. Good man, Matthews. And, his team is great, too. Dedicated. We need that now more than ever.
Fans of "Rawhide" should recognize Blaney.
4:55 Where is Lee Harvey Oswald when you need him.
LHO never shot JFK!!
Illuminati deep state carried out the murder even people in Bonney Wee Scotland 🏴 know that!!
@@josephfinnegan1805 conspiracy nut!!!!
Hey! I had that bumper sticker back in 1967!
I hope wasn't watching this episode and getting ideas.
He was never known to be a sharp shooter, let alone for possessing a rifle in his garage.
*The actor who played a bottle of salad dressing on "Rawhide" (as "Wishbone") turned up in this episode.*
At about 18:45
So if they could see the man running to the car and the car leaving, how come they didn't see when he came in?
There was no place to put the hay once they got to the top of the pulley and one hand grenade would have killed them both let alone 3. Ridiculous.
I can never get over the size of those cars ,if there ever was a head on collision it would probably. cause s supernova or something worse
Like 2 huge boulders crashing together, the metal inside was deadly, dash like an anvil.
SUVs are much bigger!
They are no bigger than a 4 door pick up truck today.
I was hoping Dan would have pulled out a Thomson out of the trunk ..could have really cleaned house
Dagmars on the police car. Cool!
"A retired gangster turned gentleman farmer." Ha! What corn pone!
Jack McCall was the guy who killed Wild Bill Hickock. This guy sure is dressed up for ranch work.
Dan in shirt sleeves, rolled up, no hat, and sunglasses. Livin' large!
22:00 The panel truck returns!
It would be the height of irony if all those "hits" were set up by the Highway Patrol to fake McCall into giving testimony.
Yep, those clowns are murder on the highway. Especially when 20-25 of them get out of the same car.
Episode ends with the Dan Mathews million dollar smile. Alls well with the world
This mob gig must have quite the retirement plan.
Retired gangster Jack Mcall, an ice cold 26 mins I thought. "Highway Patrol to headquarters, this is Matthews." Matthews actually has time on his hands to throw some horseshoes while the rancher takes a nod as if he were attending a family reunion, I don't get it, do you? Mcall still doesn't give up any 411 during the protection support. At least she sports the white shirt with his sleeves rolled up.
